Hotel Description

Nestled in the heart of Venice’s artistic Dorsoduro district, Lo Squero 2 Charming Apartment in Dorsoduro stands as a distinguished 3-star accommodation that offers an authentic Venetian experience. Located at Calle dello Squero 596/F, this exceptional property has earned an impressive 9.2 rating, placing it among the most highly-regarded accommodations in the city. The remarkable score reflects the apartment’s commitment to guest satisfaction, attention to detail, and the unique charm that sets it apart from typical hotel stays. Dorsoduro, one of Venice’s six historic sestieri (districts), provides visitors with a perfect blend of cultural immersion and tranquility, away from the more crowded tourist centers yet still within easy reach of Venice’s iconic attractions.

The apartment’s location on Calle dello Squero offers guests a privileged position in one of Venice’s most cherished neighborhoods. The name “Squero” itself hints at the property’s proximity to one of Venice’s historic gondola boatyards, the Squero di San Trovaso, where visitors can observe the time-honored craft of gondola construction and maintenance. Just steps away, guests will discover the magnificent Gallerie dell’Accademia, housing the most comprehensive collection of Venetian art from the 14th to 18th centuries. The vibrant Campo Santa Margherita, with its lively atmosphere, charming cafés, and local markets, lies within comfortable walking distance, offering a glimpse into authentic Venetian daily life. The prestigious Peggy Guggenheim Collection, showcasing masterpieces of modern art in the unfinished palazzo that was once the collector’s home, is also nearby, making Lo Squero 2 an ideal base for art enthusiasts. The apartment’s strategic position allows guests to explore the less-traveled pathways of Venice while remaining connected to the city’s grand attractions, with the iconic St. Mark’s Square accessible by a scenic walk across the Accademia Bridge or via the convenient vaporetto water buses.

What truly distinguishes Lo Squero 2 Charming Apartment, as reflected in its exceptional 9.2 rating, is the thoughtful combination of authentic Venetian character and modern comfort it offers. While specific interior details weren’t provided, the property’s location in a traditional Venetian building in the artistic Dorsoduro district suggests an ambiance that captures the essence of Venice—perhaps featuring characteristic high ceilings, original architectural elements, and views of picturesque canals or quaint streets. The “Charming” designation in its name is undoubtedly well-earned, pointing to an attention to aesthetic details and a welcoming atmosphere that resonates with guests. The overwhelmingly positive guest feedback, as indicated by the near-perfect rating, speaks to the property’s excellent value, cleanliness, and service quality. For travelers seeking an immersive Venetian experience beyond the standard hotel stay, Lo Squero 2 offers the rare opportunity to live like a local in one of the city’s most culturally rich neighborhoods, while enjoying the comfort and reliability expected of a highly-rated 3-star accommodation. Whether you’re planning to explore Venice’s artistic treasures, savor authentic cuisine at neighborhood trattorias, or simply lose yourself in the labyrinth of canals and alleyways that make this floating city so magical, Lo Squero 2 Charming Apartment in Dorsoduro provides an ideal sanctuary for your Venetian adventure.

Reviews

  • Anne from Australia – 19 February 2024 (9/10)

    The location was just what we wanted. Clean with plenty of room

    What could be improved: There was no TV channels in English

  • Mimi from Austria – 20 July 2023 (10/10)

    We loved the location, accessibility by foot and water ferries and the neighborhood. Apartment was super quiet with excellent AC. Actual mattress with the sofa bed and modern kitchen with essentials and good coffee ☺️ Matteo who checked us in was super helpful.

    What could be improved: Bathroom was perfectly functional but with lower ceiling height in the shower which was not a problem for us but may be for taller people.

  • Zahoor from United States – 14 July 2022 (10/10)

    The property was fully upgraded and had everything you need.

  • Beate from Germany – 13 July 2024 (9/10)

    Prima Lage in unserem Lieblingsstadtteil. Die Wohnung war geräumig, gut ausgestattet und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, in einer sehr ruhigen Gegend. Restaurants, Supermarkt, Vaporetto Station gleich um die Ecke bzw. ganz in der Nähe.

    What could be improved: Einige merkwürdige Mails – angeblich von der Agentur in Venedig – die wir vor Abreise und auch noch nach unserer Ankunft erhielten und die bei uns für etwas Verwirrung sorgten.

  • Sergey from Russia – 12 May 2024 (8/10)

    Очень тихое расположение и комплектация всем необходимым для комфортного проживания. Удобное расположение в плане транспортной доступности.

    What could be improved: Прежде всего душевая у которой только занавеска. Принимать душ здесь так, чтобы не пролилась вода с поддона на пол не возможно. Второе – это отсутствие москитных сеток на окнах.
