From your base at Piccola Corte, you can easily explore nearby treasures such as the Jewish Ghetto—the world’s first ghetto and a center of cultural significance—and the magnificent Ca’ d’Oro palace on the Grand Canal, both just a short stroll away. The hotel’s strategic location in Cannaregio places you within walking distance of the bustling Strada Nuova with its shops and restaurants, while the vaporetto water bus stops nearby provide effortless connections to St. Mark’s Square, the Rialto Bridge, and other iconic Venetian landmarks.

The hotel’s knowledgeable staff take pride in helping guests uncover the secrets of their beloved city, from recommending family-run restaurants serving authentic Venetian cuisine to suggesting lesser-known museums and viewpoints that capture Venice’s timeless beauty.

In a city known for tourism, Piccola Corte offers something increasingly rare and valuable—an authentic Venetian experience where you’re treated not merely as a visitor, but as a welcomed guest in one of the world’s most extraordinary cities.

  We had a great stay at the Piccola Corte.
  
  The apartment was spotlessly clean and well designed to make the maximum use of the space. The kitchenette is well equipped with good quality appliances and the basics ( tea, coffee, sugar, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper etc ) and breakfast essentials left by our hosts were much appreciated. I slept like a log in the comfortable bed. The bathroom, though not large, is well organised with a decent sized shower and the toiletries supplied by the owners were a nice touch. Check in/out went smoothly: a big thank you to Costanza who returned immediately and with a smile when I managed to lock us out on arrival, despite her clear instructions about the keys. ( We were tired from travelling!)
  
  We loved the area. Cannaregio is lively but not overwhelming, with lots of bars and restaurants on the local canals and backstreets where you can try Venetian specialities. It's a great base for exploring this magical city. Highly recommended!

  We were more than happy to stay in the perfect location of piccola corte in between everything. Friendly, easy communication, warm welcome and check in. Neat, completely equipped apartment, spotlessly clean. Kitchen ready to prepare coffee and easy breakfast and also spices, olive oil etc. combined with excellent dishes and cooking supply (we did not use though). Bed comfy, modern bathroom.

  Great place with everything that you need. Fully equipped and very clean. It was close to the railway station, quite practical this time.
  Visiting Venice every year and always stayed in different places and sestriere, but here I enjoyed it so much, that I would definitely come back again.
  
  What could be improved: Only some noises from outside and the neighbour upstairs.

  Great location.
  
  What could be improved: A delayed flight kept us from being able to check-in for our first night. Be aware that if you arrive after 11pm you will not be able to check-in.

• Angela from France – 21 February 2025 (10/10)

  Le détail, tout le nécessaire y était, vaisselle, ustensiles, jusqu’à la lessive pour les machines et le nécessaire pour le petit déjeuner. Des guides de la ville et des parapluies…
  Le supermarché à 50 mètre…

• Beate from Germany – 11 February 2025 (10/10)

  Ein sehr schönes, sehr gut gelegenes kleines aber feines Apartment, alles da, was man braucht. Es liegt in einer ruhigen Ecke, trotzdem super zentral, einen Steinwurf entfernt ein Supermarkt. Gut ausgestattete Küche, Kaffee, Tee, Öl, alles da.
