Ca’ del Pozzo Loft Apartment

Hotel Description

You know, when I first stumbled upon Ca’ del Pozzo Loft Apartment in Venice’s Cannaregio district, I was honestly relieved to escape the mad crush around San Marco. It’s tucked away at 4509 Campo de la Cason – this quiet little square that’s more about locals grabbing their morning espresso than dodging selfie sticks. I arrived via vaporetto from the train station, just a short walk along the Fondamenta degli Ormesini, where you can smell the fresh bread from those tiny bakeries that have been there forever. The building itself is one of those classic Venetian spots, all weathered brick and narrow alleys, but inside – whoa, it’s this airy loft setup that feels surprisingly modern without losing that old-world charm. I mean, the exposed beams and high ceilings give it this cozy, almost artistic vibe, like you’re living in an artist’s studio rather than a stuffy hotel room. And the kitchen? Fully stocked, which was a lifesaver – I whipped up pasta with ingredients from the nearby Rialto Market, saving a ton on eating out every night.

What really sold me, though, was how it balances that authentic Venice feel with practical perks for real travelers. It’s in Cannaregio, so you’re close to spots like the Jewish Ghetto – you can wander over to Gam Gam for some kosher eats or just people-watch on the bridges without the overwhelming crowds. Honestly, the area gets lively in the evenings along Strada Nova with its bars and cicchetti spots, but come nightfall, it’s blissfully quiet; no gondola serenades blasting through your window like in Dorsoduro. Check-in was a breeze – the host met me right on time, handed over the keys with a few insider tips (like avoiding the vaporetto during rush hour), and even pointed out the nearest laundromat, which, let’s face it, is gold after a week of canal-hopping. The place is rated 8.5 for good reason; it’s got that four-star polish with comfy beds and a bathroom that doesn’t feel cramped – though, fair warning, the stairs up to the loft might be a workout if you’re lugging heavy bags. And in high season, like July, book early because this neighborhood fills up fast with folks seeking that off-the-beaten-path escape.

All in all, if you’re after a stay that lets you live like a Venetian rather than just visit – you know, brewing your own coffee while gazing out at the campo, or strolling to the Madonna dell’Orto church for some Bellini paintings – Ca’ del Pozzo is it. It’s not perfect; the Wi-Fi can be spotty during peak times, but that’s Venice for you, sort of adds to the charm. For families or couples wanting space (it’s more apartment than hotel room), it’s a smart pick, especially at that price point. I left feeling like I’d uncovered a hidden gem – well, not too hidden, but you get the idea.

• Superb – Dalia from United States – 9 September 2022 (9/10)

  Beautiful, modern and comfortable loft, no need to climb stairs to reach it from the street. That's a plus when you carry luggage.
  Inside it was newly renovated top t bottom. Modern facilities and amenities, located inside a traditional old house. There was a great kitchen, bathroom and even washing machine and drier. The beds were comfortable, air conditions in all the space. The location was superb.
  The owner communicated with us easily, was very helpful when we had questions and seemed to try and make our trip easier.
