Asteria Venetian Suite

Hotel Description

Nestled in the enchanting Cannaregio district of Venice, the three-star Asteria Venetian Suite offers an exceptional stay in one of Italy’s most captivating cities. Located at Calle Riello 458, this boutique accommodation stands as a testament to Venetian elegance while providing modern comforts that have earned it an outstanding 9.8 rating from satisfied guests. The Cannaregio neighborhood provides an authentic Venetian experience, away from the most crowded tourist areas yet within easy reach of the city’s iconic attractions. This northern district, known for its peaceful canals and local charm, offers a glimpse into the everyday life of Venetians while still placing you just a short walk from the Grand Canal and approximately 15-20 minutes from the magnificent St. Mark’s Square. The Jewish Ghetto, one of the oldest in Europe with its moving history and beautiful synagogues, is also nearby, as is the Ca’ d’Oro, a stunning palace housing impressive art collections.

The Asteria Venetian Suite has distinguished itself as one of Venice’s premier accommodations, with its near-perfect 9.8 rating reflecting the exceptional experience it offers to travelers. This remarkable score places it among the most highly-regarded properties in a city renowned for its hospitality. The suite’s popularity stems from its thoughtful blend of traditional Venetian aesthetics with contemporary amenities, creating spaces that feel both timeless and comfortable. Guests consistently praise the immaculate condition of the rooms, the attentive and personalized service, and the property’s attention to detail. From elegant furnishings that echo Venice’s rich artistic heritage to modern conveniences that ensure a seamless stay, every aspect of the Asteria Venetian Suite has been carefully considered. The accommodation likely features characteristic Venetian elements—perhaps Murano glass fixtures, richly textured fabrics, or ornate decorative touches—while maintaining an atmosphere of relaxed sophistication that welcomes guests after days spent exploring the labyrinthine streets and canals of this floating city.

What truly sets the Asteria Venetian Suite apart, beyond its perfect location and beautiful design, is the authentic Venetian experience it facilitates. Staying in Cannaregio allows guests to discover local bacari (wine bars) serving delicious cicchetti (Venetian tapas), shop at neighborhood markets where Venetians buy their daily provisions, and stroll along less-traveled canals where gondolas glide silently by. The suite serves as not merely a place to sleep but a gateway to experiencing Venice as locals do—a perspective that becomes increasingly valuable in a city that receives millions of visitors annually. The property’s exceptional rating suggests that the owners and staff excel at providing insider knowledge and recommendations, helping guests navigate beyond the obvious tourist attractions to discover hidden gems throughout the city. Whether you’re a first-time visitor to Venice or returning to delve deeper into its layered history and culture, the Asteria Venetian Suite offers the perfect balance of accessibility, comfort, and authentic Venetian character—a true home in one of the world’s most magical destinations.

Reviews

• Darida from Hungary – 29 July 2024 (10/10)

  Quiet, peaceful, spacious and clean accommodation within walking distance of all the sights of Venice. It was an ideal place for us to stay for a week.

• Lada from Russia – 13 March 2025 (10/10)

  A legendary apartment with a unique character, I felt as if I was staying in an Italian film. Size-wize, it is huge)) I wished my family was with me, plenty of space for 3 people. Location is a top one, 7 minutes walk from Santa Lucia railway station, close to historic center, there are a couple of good restaurants around the corner. The kitchen equipment works fine, as well as the washing machine, which was very useful.The host, Roberto, is very helpful and attentive, met me in person and gave plenty of useful recommendations. I really enjoyed my short stay (also, it was Carnival time!). I hope I could stay in this apartment again!
  
  What could be improved: Roberto warned me, that old apartments are not exactly sound-proof, so if you are sensitive to the noise, use earplugs.

  The apartment was beautiful, spacious and more than adequate for our stay. A great location, walking distance to everything. Roberto, our host, went out of his way to greet us, and provided lots of helpful tips for a better experience of Venice. I would definitely recommend.

• Claire from New Zealand – 9 July 2024 (10/10)

  Superb apartment in a fantastic location away from the busy parts of Venice so lovely and quiet. Many lovely restaurants along the canal just around the corner. Our host Roberto was so welcoming and a treasure trove of knowledge imparting many tips on places to go. We had 4 nights but need to go back for more!

  What could be improved: N/A

• Freddie from Canada – 11 May 2024 (9/10)

  The location was perfect for us as it was a 6 minute walk to the train station and there was a vaporetto stop nearby. The apartment is located in a quiet block of flats with a grocery store and several eateries nearby.
  
  What could be improved: We would have benefitted from written instructions on how to use the washing machine – Roberto did tell us but the different cycles confounded us! 🙂
