Hotel Description

Welcome to the exquisite Guglie View Apartment, a sophisticated 4-star retreat nestled in the captivating Cannaregio district of Venice, Italy. This remarkable accommodation, boasting an impressive 9.0 rating from satisfied guests, offers an authentic Venetian experience that balances luxury with genuine local charm. Located at 1517 Rio Terà S. Leonardo on the third floor, this apartment presents a privileged vantage point from which to absorb the timeless beauty of one of Italy’s most enchanting cities. The Cannaregio district, with its serene canals and distinctly local atmosphere, provides a welcome respite from the more tourist-heavy areas of Venice while remaining conveniently connected to the city’s most celebrated landmarks. The nearby Guglie Bridge and the historic Jewish Ghetto are just moments away, offering culturally rich experiences right at your doorstep. From this ideally situated apartment, guests can easily access the Grand Canal and explore the myriad wonders that Venice has to offer.

The Guglie View Apartment combines elegant accommodations with an authentic neighborhood experience, making it a standout choice for discerning travelers. The exceptional 9.0 rating reflects the consistent satisfaction of previous guests who have reveled in the apartment’s thoughtful amenities and prime location. From the third-floor perspective, visitors are treated to captivating views of the surrounding area, perhaps glimpsing the gentle flow of waterways that have defined Venice for centuries. The Cannaregio district itself is a treasure waiting to be discovered, with its array of local eateries serving traditional Venetian cuisine, artisanal shops offering unique crafts, and picturesque canals that inspire moments of quiet reflection. Within walking distance, you’ll find the Venice Santa Lucia train station, facilitating easy connections to other Italian destinations, as well as the Strada Nuova, a vibrant thoroughfare lined with shops and cafes. The apartment serves as an ideal base for both first-time visitors eager to explore Venice’s iconic attractions and returning travelers seeking a deeper connection with the city’s less-traveled pathways.

What truly sets the Guglie View Apartment apart is its harmonious blend of comfort, location, and authentic Venetian character. While maintaining the refined standards expected of a 4-star establishment, it offers guests the opportunity to experience Venice as locals do—through the rhythms and rituals of a genuine Venetian neighborhood. Morning walks might lead you to discover family-run bakeries with freshly made pastries, or evening strolls could reveal hidden bacari (wine bars) where Venetians gather to enjoy cicchetti (local tapas) and lively conversation. The apartment’s high rating stands as testimony to its ability to deliver not just accommodations, but memorable experiences that capture the essence of Venice beyond the postcard views. Whether you’re watching gondolas glide beneath the Guglie Bridge, exploring the historic Jewish Quarter with its poignant history and beautiful synagogues, or simply wandering the labyrinthine streets that characterize this magical city, the Guglie View Apartment offers a welcoming haven to return to—a place where the authentic spirit of Venice flows as steadily as the canals that surround it.

• John from Canada – 24 May 2024 (8/10)

  We arrived by rail so its proximity to Venezia San Lucia was a huge plus. The apartment was spacious and spotless with a view of the Grand Canal.
  
  What could be improved: The building this third floor apartment was in has an elevator but it was not working. From the looks of the out of service sign, it has not worked for quite some time.

• Camille from United States – 11 June 2023 (9/10)

  Close to all necessity including wayer bus, trains, bus station and many restaurants and shop

  Cleanliness of the apartment

• Horace from United States – 23 October 2022 (9/10)

  well furnished… centrally located…

• Chadbourne from United States – 10 October 2022 (9/10)

  Loved the location, easy to walk to sights, water taxis, buses, and trains. Great restaurants nearby. The apartment was adorable. Loved the red and white theme and the wood beams adorning the ceiling. Incredible views of the canal and boats going by out every window.
  
  What could be improved: We didn't have cell service to contact the owner to let us in when we arrived. It took us a bit to figure out the correct doorbell to ring was Longo.

• George from Taiwan – 29 September 2024 (9/10)

  Location is unbearable. In the middle of every great restaurant and just about anything in Venice.

• Melanie from Australia – 16 January 2024 (6/10)

  The apartment was in a good location with restaurants nearby and an easy walk to the main areas. The view of the canal was good too. The apartment had good facilities.
  
  What could be improved: We booked last minute and the owner apparently didn't get the notification so we arrived and I sent him a message and he said the apartment wasn't ready and asked if we could go to another apartment for the night, which I declined so then he got a cleaner but we had to wait for 2-3 hours with our luggage. When we did get in, the lift was broken so we had to carry the luggage up 4 flights of stairs. The floors were not clean when we got in there. The bed was also uncomfortable Quite disappointed.

• Ronnie from United Kingdom – 25 June 2023 (7/10)

  Great facilities and great location
  
  What could be improved: Real problems with air conditioning meant we got very little sleep. Owner apparently fixed this after we left but no offer of compensation for our substantial disruption.
