Hotel Description

Welcome to the enchanting Ca Zianini, a distinguished 3-star hotel nestled in the heart of Venice’s historic Castello district. With an exceptional guest rating of 9.6, this boutique accommodation stands as one of the most highly-acclaimed properties in Venice, consistently delighting visitors with its perfect blend of Venetian charm and modern comforts. Located at 3708 Calle de la Pietà, Ca Zianini occupies a privileged position that places guests within the authentic fabric of Venetian life while providing convenient access to the city’s most treasured landmarks.

The hotel’s prime location in the Castello sestiere is particularly noteworthy for cultural enthusiasts. Ca Zianini sits just steps away from the renowned Calle de la Pietà, a street named after the famous Pietà church and orphanage where Antonio Vivaldi once taught music. This eastern district of Venice offers a more authentic glimpse into Venetian life, away from the most crowded tourist paths yet still within easy walking distance of St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, and the magnificent waterfront Riva degli Schiavoni. The hotel’s strategic position allows guests to explore the nearby Arsenale—Venice’s historic shipyard—and the verdant Giardini della Biennale, home to the prestigious Venice Biennale art exhibition. The vaporetto stops are conveniently accessible, facilitating exploration of the Grand Canal and the outlying islands of Murano, Burano, and Torcello.

Inside Ca Zianini, guests are treated to the intimate atmosphere that only a meticulously maintained Venetian property can offer. The hotel’s remarkable 9.6 rating speaks volumes about the exceptional service and attention to detail that defines the guest experience here. Visitors consistently praise the immaculate accommodations that seamlessly integrate traditional Venetian design elements—think exposed wooden beams, elegant terrazzo floors, and refined local textiles—with all the modern amenities expected by today’s discerning travelers. The warm, professional staff at Ca Zianini have earned a reputation for providing personalized service that makes guests feel less like tourists and more like welcomed friends returning to a Venetian home. Whether you’re seeking restaurant recommendations in hidden local neighborhoods, assistance arranging a romantic gondola ride, or insider tips for exploring Venice beyond the guidebooks, the knowledgeable team takes pride in enhancing each guest’s Venetian adventure. As evening falls, return to this tranquil haven after a day of exploration to reflect on your Venetian experience, perhaps while enjoying a glass of Veneto wine in the hotel’s intimate common area before venturing out again to discover the magical atmosphere of Venice by night. Ca Zianini offers not just accommodation, but an authentic portal into the timeless beauty and romance of La Serenissima.

Reviews

• Riya from Netherlands – 17 March 2025 (10/10)

  The owner was extremely accommodating and the location was great!

• Joseph from United States – 7 January 2025 (10/10)

  Very well located, quiet, spacious, very clean, comfortable. Sandro was super helpful with arranging water taxis recommending restaurants.
  
  What could be improved: We had to be careful with hot water supply when showering. Must have a small tank. A minor issue, though.

• Norman from United Kingdom – 1 September 2024 (10/10)

  Exceptional! So clean, location perfect (short walk to San Marco Piazza), very high spec apartment.

• Elena from Russia – 19 August 2024 (10/10)

  The location is very convenient if you use water taxi! Sandro is very nice, he can help to book water taxi
  
  What could be improved: Stairs to the apartment 😂 but I Know it’s ok in Venezia

• Alexis from Canada – 31 May 2024 (9/10)

  Great location, central but quiet; great host and communication; beautiful newly renovated place in historic building overlooking a small canal
  
  What could be improved: Staircase to the mezzanine/attic level where the bed is doesn't have a banister, so it would not be good for people with mobility issues or older people or going to the bathroom in the night…. also, the bed in the attic is under low beams, and it is very easy to hit your head if you are not careful! (We got used to it after a few head bumps…)

• Emma from Australia – 20 May 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment is just wonderful. For a few days it felt we were truly living in Venice. The location is perfect to explore all of Venice. The apartment itself is beautifully appointed and so peaceful to come back to after a day exploring the city. It's a very special place to stay in Venice.

• Gordana from Serbia – 24 April 2024 (10/10)

  The small canal and lovely bridge view, the first floor (no mold), very close to San Marco, spatiousness, new and modern, comfortable furniture, well equipped kitchen and bathroom, minimalistic design, good taste, lovely details (books, small objects etc), warm and pleasant.
  
  What could be improved: Everything was great, only thing – maybe not recommended for tall people since the bedroom is in the attic (has low roof parts), the small carpet is a bit slippery (but that can be solved easily) and the mattress is quite hard – can bother if you prefer softer, it was okay for 4 nights.

• Heather from United Kingdom – 4 June 2023 (10/10)

  Rudi was amazing host the apartment was amazing and so clean it was a perfect location within walking distance to main attractions

• Rogerio from United States – 26 November 2022 (10/10)

  Exceptional apartment, fantastic location! I couldn’t have stayed at a better place in Venice.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing, the apartment was perfect.

• Livia from United Kingdom – 28 October 2022 (10/10)

  We loved the location. Many amenities near by including restaurants, supermarket and shops. As soon as you enter this 14th century building with its broad stairs and wrought iron bannisters you know it was a good choice. The flat is modern and comfortable on the inside and it has a beautiful view of the canal! This flat make you feel you are living (even for a short period of time) the life of Venice. Furthermore we were greeted by Rudi at the Campo (not at the square) who not only explained what we needed to know about our flat but also facts about Venice! He made us feel welcome and walked us to where the local supermarket was. If we ever come to visit again I would love to stay at ca zianini again.
