Hotel Description
Welcome to the Romantic Rialto Apartment, an exquisite 3-star gem nestled in the heart of Venice’s historic San Polo district. This charming accommodation has earned an exceptional 9.5 rating from satisfied guests, making it one of the most highly acclaimed stays in the magical floating city. Perfectly positioned at S.Polo 879, this apartment offers an authentic Venetian experience with the perfect balance of historic charm and modern comfort. The Romantic Rialto Apartment stands as a testament to Venetian elegance, providing an intimate and luxurious base from which to explore the city’s winding canals, historic piazzas, and architectural wonders.
The apartment’s location in the San Polo district places you in one of Venice’s oldest and most characterful neighborhoods. As the name suggests, you’ll find yourself just moments away from the iconic Rialto Bridge, one of Venice’s most photographed landmarks spanning the Grand Canal. This historic area buzzes with local energy, home to the famous Rialto Market where vendors have been selling fresh produce, seafood, and local specialties since 1097. From your doorstep, the labyrinth of narrow streets unfolds to reveal hidden squares, authentic bacari (Venetian wine bars), and artisan shops selling everything from Murano glass to traditional Venetian masks. The central location means you’re within easy walking distance of St. Mark’s Square and Basilica, the Doge’s Palace, and the Accademia Gallery, allowing you to immerse yourself in Venice’s rich cultural tapestry without relying on water taxis or vaporetti.
Inside the Romantic Rialto Apartment, Venetian tradition meets contemporary comfort in a harmonious blend that has delighted countless guests, as reflected in its outstanding 9.5 rating. The apartment likely features classic Venetian elements such as terrazzo floors, exposed wooden beams, or Murano glass fixtures, creating an atmosphere that is both authentic and luxurious. The living spaces are thoughtfully designed to provide a peaceful retreat after days spent exploring the city, with comfortable furnishings and attentive details that anticipate your every need. Wake up to the soft sounds of Venice coming to life, perhaps enjoying your morning coffee while gazing out at a picturesque canal or charming street scene. As evening falls, return to your apartment after dinner at one of San Polo’s renowned restaurants, perhaps sampling seafood specialties or traditional cicchetti (Venetian tapas) before retiring to your comfortable accommodation.
The exceptional rating of 9.5 speaks volumes about the quality of service and attention to detail you can expect at the Romantic Rialto Apartment. This level of guest satisfaction is rarely achieved and indicates consistent excellence in all aspects of the stay experience. From the likely warm welcome upon arrival to the thoughtfully appointed interiors, every element has been carefully considered to ensure a memorable Venetian sojourn. The apartment offers the privacy and authenticity that larger hotels cannot match, allowing you to feel like a temporary resident rather than a tourist. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a cultural exploration, or simply seeking to experience Venice from a more intimate perspective, the Romantic Rialto Apartment provides the perfect setting for creating lasting memories in one of the world’s most enchanting cities. Its combination of prime location, charming atmosphere, and exceptional guest experiences makes it an outstanding choice for discerning travelers seeking the true essence of Venice.

Reviews
Vesela from Bulgaria – 4 September 2022 (10/10)
The apartment was amazing, very clean and well equipped. Perfect location, close to everything. The balcony was lovely. Paola was very responsive to all our questions and wanted to make our stay wonderful. I really recommend this apartment.
Thank you very much Paola ❤Konstancja from United Kingdom – 19 August 2024 (10/10)
Lovely, comfy, clean apartment with a little terrace with a view over Venice roofs (also from all the windows). Paola was a great host and communication before getting into the property was excellent. Quiet location but close to all major city attractions and the vaporetto stop. We loved the neighbourhood, particularly local bars and the fish market! Kitchen was well equipped and we took advantage of that, rather than constantly spending money in the tourist trap restaurants (we made exceptions for the local cicchetti bars though). Definitely would love to go back, we enjoyed it so much! Perfect romantic getaway!
Vladyslava from Poland – 20 July 2024 (10/10)
Everything was great! Convenient location of the apartment, quiet place. The apartment has everything you need for comfort and even more. Incredible breakfast on the balcony. We are very grateful to Ms. Paola for her hospitality and valuable travel tips and restaurant choices for dinner.
Thomas from Australia – 22 July 2023 (9/10)
good location, spare umbrellas were helpful as my personal one was stolen on our first night.
What could be improved: It rained almost the whole time making the balcony almost not useable. Very sad we couldn't use thisDorothy from Australia – 19 July 2023 (9/10)
Loved the location near to Rialto but out of the crowds of the peak tourist area. Close proximity to Rialto Mercato vaporetto stop made this a very convenient location. The apartment was private with a balcony, exceptionally clean and well set up with everything you could need, even a washing machine. The air conditioning was well utilised during a very hot weather stay in Venice. Welcomed personally by the host on arrival and shown around the apartment.
What could be improved: The stairs were a challenge at the end of a long day but the cool welcoming apartment made it more than worth the climb.Roger from New Zealand – 30 June 2023 (10/10)
Such a good location .Great having a washing machine and outside line . Also nice to have the balcony .
Paola was very helpful and communicated easily with us .Janus from China – 17 May 2023 (9/10)
Warm welcome by the hosts with some good restaurant suggestions. Location is central, but quiet. Very clean! Nice small balcony overseeing the rooftops on the backside of the building. Would come back again any time.
What could be improved: Bed a bit squeaking, screws need some tightening. Should be a quick fix.Maria from Russia – 12 February 2023 (10/10)
Cosy apartment with fantastic small terrace on the upper floor in the heart of San Polo just few steps from Rialto bridge. Bright living room with a balcony which is probably the best place for a morning coffee)
What could be improved: nothingLindsay from United States – 26 July 2023 (9/10)
Location was wonderful and Paola was lovely- attentive but not intrusive.
We loved the coziness of the flat and look forward to our next stay there.
Pay CLOSE attention to Paola’s instructions about how to arrive there. (If you use the water taxi, get off at the Rialto Mercato stop, NOT the Ponte Realto, for example.) I attempted to use the listed address in my phone and we ended up rather lost.
What could be improved: **This is a complaint that is virtually unavoidable in Venice**
Because we were on a high floor, the stairs seemed endless. There is no elevator, and so your best bet is to pack lightly, and/or store the bulk of your belongings elsewhere. Denise from United Kingdom – 22 February 2024 (6/10)
The balcony was great. Comfortable bed. Very good location.
What could be improved: Very uncomfortable couch. Rudimentary kitchen (not suitable for cooking).
