Residenza 3B

Hotel Description

Welcome to Residenza 3B, a charming three-star accommodation nestled in the heart of Venice’s Santa Croce district. This intimate hotel offers a genuine Venetian experience, combining comfort with an authentic atmosphere that larger chain hotels often lack. With a solid rating of 7.5, Residenza 3B has established itself as a reliable choice for travelers seeking quality accommodation without excessive luxury pricing in one of Italy’s most visited cities. The hotel’s location at Santa Croce, 1310, places guests in a strategic position to explore both the celebrated attractions and hidden gems of this floating city.

Situated in the Santa Croce sestiere (district), Residenza 3B offers a unique advantage of being slightly removed from the overwhelming tourist crowds while remaining within easy reach of Venice’s must-see landmarks. The neighborhood provides a glimpse into authentic Venetian life, where locals go about their daily routines amidst centuries-old architecture. From this convenient address, guests can easily walk to the magnificent Grand Canal, and the property sits approximately 15-20 minutes on foot from the iconic Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Square. The nearby vaporetto (water bus) stops connect you effortlessly to other parts of the city, including the train station and Piazzale Roma – Venice’s main transportation hub. The Santa Croce area itself is home to several notable attractions, including the Ca’ Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art and the Natural History Museum, both showcasing different aspects of Venetian culture and history. The neighborhood also features charming campos (squares), traditional bacari (wine bars), and family-run restaurants where you can savor authentic Venetian cuisine away from the tourist traps.

What sets Residenza 3B apart is its commitment to providing a comfortable stay that reflects the true essence of Venice. The hotel’s 7.5 rating speaks to its consistent quality and value, with guests regularly noting the helpful staff who are knowledgeable about local recommendations and willing to assist with arrangements for gondola rides, museum tickets, or dining reservations. The rooms, while modest in keeping with the building’s historic character, are thoughtfully appointed with amenities designed to ensure a pleasant stay. Many visitors appreciate the hotel’s attention to maintaining a balance between modern conveniences and traditional Venetian style, with elements like Murano glass fixtures or local craftsmanship incorporated throughout the property. Morning breakfasts offer a selection of Italian pastries, fresh coffee, and continental options to fuel your day of exploration. As evening falls, you might enjoy returning to this peaceful haven after a day of wandering Venice’s labyrinthine streets and bridges. For travelers seeking an authentic Venetian experience without extravagant pricing, Residenza 3B represents a practical choice that doesn’t sacrifice character or convenience. The property embodies the intimate charm that makes smaller Venetian accommodations so appealing – a place where you don’t just visit Venice, but truly live in it, if only for a few enchanting days.

Reviews

• Annabel from Estonia – 17 August 2023 (8/10)

  The location was perfect. Not far from the bustling area of the city. The host answered our questions relatively fast. Overall, the apartment was clean.
  
  What could be improved: I wish there were more garbage cans inside the apartment. It would've made the whole sorting process faster and easier. Also, a little guide would be helpful. Since the apartment is on the ground floor, it was humid. A washed T-shirt dried for 2 full days.

• Erika from United Kingdom – 8 July 2024 (9/10)

  What could be improved: There was no TV and i had trouble with the fridge not slways working

• Kaajal from United Arab Emirates – 17 April 2023 (7/10)

  Close proximity to water taxis and the cleanliness and space of the property. The beds were very comfortable as well.
  
  What could be improved: Just the smell of sewage since it was close to canal

• Luke from United Kingdom – 17 September 2023 (8/10)

  Residenza B is a clean, safe and spacious ground floor apartment in the heart of Venice. The location is excellent, about a 10 minute walk from Rialto Bridge in one direction and the Train station in the other, it is a great base to explore Venice from and would recommend to anyone.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing to dislike about the apartment itself. Sometimes there was a small smell in the mornings, but you're in Venice, I think that's to be expected and would be the same wherever you stayed!!

• Emma from United Kingdom – 12 June 2023 (8/10)

  very modern and clean with very good facilities and location.
  
  What could be improved: the WiFi box in the bedroom above the bed was like having a lamp on, very bright.

• Holmes from United Kingdom – 18 September 2022 (8/10)

  Perfect location easy access, clean and comfortable

• Anonymous from Australia – 19 October 2023 (6/10)

  Location to the main station and Grand Canal was excellent. Plenty of room for two. Decor was good. The security was very good, It had decent sized towels. The bed was comfortable. The shower was small but good
  
  What could be improved: Room had only a cursory clean. There was a slight sewerage smell throughout. Only one cup. No kettle to boil water, only a saucepan, which when we boiled the water, had a residue in it and the water tasted horrible. We ate out, which defeated the purpose of getting a villa. The wi-fi was intermittent at best.
