Hotel Description

Welcome to Ca’ San Silvestro 2 terrazze nel cuore di Venezia, an exquisite 3-star gem nestled in the heart of Venice’s captivating San Polo district. This charming establishment, whose name beautifully translates to “San Silvestro House with 2 terraces in the heart of Venice,” truly delivers on its promise of an authentic Venetian experience. Located at Calle dei Sbianchesini 1156, this hotel boasts an impressive 9.2 rating, placing it among the most highly-regarded accommodations in the city. This exceptional score speaks volumes about the quality of service, attention to detail, and the memorable stays experienced by previous guests. San Polo, the smallest of Venice’s six sestieri (districts), is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere, historical significance, and central location, making this hotel an ideal base for exploring the magical floating city.

As suggested by its name, Ca’ San Silvestro features two stunning terraces that offer guests a rare privilege in Venice – the opportunity to enjoy private outdoor space with breathtaking views of the city’s distinctive skyline. From these terraces, guests can absorb the quintessential Venetian panorama: a mesmerizing tapestry of terracotta rooftops, elegant church domes, and the occasional glimpse of shimmering canals. The hotel’s privileged location places guests mere moments away from the magnificent Rialto Bridge, one of Venice’s most iconic landmarks, and the world-famous Rialto Market, where locals have gathered for centuries to purchase the freshest seafood and produce. The celebrated Grand Canal is also within easy reach, offering the perfect opportunity for a romantic gondola ride or a scenic journey on Venice’s traditional vaporetto water buses.

The San Polo district itself is a treasure trove of Venetian culture, art, and history. Within walking distance of Ca’ San Silvestro, visitors will discover the awe-inspiring Scuola Grande di San Rocco, housing an unparalleled collection of Tintoretto masterpieces, and the majestic Frari Church, home to Titian’s “Assumption of the Virgin.” The neighborhood’s labyrinth of narrow calli (streets) and intimate campi (squares) invites exploration, with countless opportunities to stumble upon hidden bakeries serving traditional Venetian pastries, artisanal craft shops, and charming bacari where locals enjoy cicchetti (Venetian tapas) and a spritz. Despite its central location, the hotel offers a tranquil retreat from the bustling tourist areas, allowing guests to experience Venice as locals do. With its exceptional rating of 9.2, Ca’ San Silvestro 2 terrazze nel cuore di Venezia promises not just accommodation, but an authentic, immersive stay in one of the world’s most enchanting cities – a perfect blend of comfort, location, and the timeless magic that makes Venice an eternal destination for dreamers and travelers alike.

Reviews

  • Katarzyna from Germany – 3 January 2024 (10/10)

    Excellent host, perfect location! Thank you Mariana!

  • Floris from Netherlands – 3 November 2024 (10/10)

    Just perfect. Spent 4 nights here to visit the biennale art exhibition. The feeling of home away from home, which we appreciate. Dog friendly. Ideal location, quiet, but close to everything, like vaparetto, birreria at Campo San Polo, bakery at San Toma. Good bed, balconies, kitchen, etc. Thanks to Mariana for picking us up from the vaparetto. Easy communications. We will try to stay here again when we come back to town. To be recommended for anyone who can walk the stairs to the top floor.

  • Robin from United States – 28 October 2024 (9/10)

    Excellent location on a quiet street one minute's walk from the Ca' Silvestro vaporetto. Well-equipped kitchen and miscellaneous useful things, such as a sewing kit. There is a grocery right around the corner. We did not use the terrace due to rain, but it would have been nice in good weather. It's a residential house, for those wanting and enjoying quiet.

    What could be improved: The second bed is a convertible sofa in the living area, great for someone who likes a firm mattress; that was a bit unclear from the description. The location on the 3rd floor meant a lot of stairs.

  • Vito from Luxembourg – 4 September 2024 (8/10)

    Simple. You have everything you need. Very kind service, fair price and near to the main attractions. Very quiet at day and night.

    What could be improved: –

  • Remidan from Romania – 23 August 2024 (9/10)

    The location is very close to the vaporetto station, which was a great advantage if you wanted to see as much as possible in 3 days. The apartment is very comfortable and well equipped. The host also gave us all the details we needed about transport and other facilities. There are two terraces where you can stay outside and enjoy the atmosphere of Venice.

    What could be improved: The apartment is on the second floor of a building without a lift, which is only a disadvantage if you have heavy luggage.

  • Sandra from United Kingdom – 8 August 2024 (9/10)

    Great flat in a wonderfully central location just off a small square. We stayed for 4 nights and loved to sit on the balcony each evening with a glass of wine. Everything is on your doorstep and the apartment has everything you need. I used the sofa bed which is comfortable and Mariana had it all made up for us. Mariana is a lovely host supplying lots of useful information and even arranged for someone to meet us from the Alilaguna and take us to the flat. I will definitely stay here again x

    What could be improved: Nothing

  • Jackie from United States – 15 July 2024 (9/10)

    Hosts were extremely helpful and very responsive to questions and inquiries.

    What could be improved: A lot of stairs.

  • Emma from United Kingdom – 11 July 2024 (10/10)

    Perfect central location with easy access to the vaporetto and hence all the sights. Air conditioned and well equipped. We had a wonderful stay.

  • Eleni from United Kingdom – 3 July 2024 (10/10)

    I loved the location, it was clean and had everything you needed. Having two terraces was wonderful as were the two A/C Units.

    What could be improved: They weren’t an issue for us, but the stairs could be problematic for unsteady walkers as there is no lift.

  • Gabriela from Germany – 23 October 2023 (10/10)

    I loved everything about this place!!! The apartment is a great size, has a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable bed, a terrace, and a balcony. Having a Proseco at night on the balcony was a big plus!!! The host was very responsive and friendly. The location can't be better, it is close to everything!!!

    What could be improved: N/A
