San Simeon Apartments

Hotel Description

Welcome to the San Simeon Apartments, a charming 3-star accommodation nestled in the historic heart of Venice, Italy. Situated along the prestigious Riva Degli Schiavoni in the culturally rich Castello district, this well-positioned property offers guests a genuine Venetian experience with a commendable 7.5 rating from satisfied travelers. The apartments’ address at Calle Del Cagnoletto 4084 places you directly on one of Venice’s most iconic waterfront promenades, where the shimmering waters of the Venetian Lagoon create a mesmerizing backdrop for your Italian sojourn.

The San Simeon Apartments enjoy an enviable location that exemplifies the essence of Venice. The Riva Degli Schiavoni is a celebrated waterfront walkway that stretches from the world-famous St. Mark’s Square (Piazza San Marco) toward the eastern districts of the city. This prime position means you’re merely a leisurely stroll away from Venice’s most treasured attractions – the breathtaking Byzantine architecture of St. Mark’s Basilica, the Gothic splendor of Doge’s Palace, and the iconic Bridge of Sighs are all within comfortable walking distance. The Castello district itself, one of Venice’s six historic sestieri (districts), offers an authentic glimpse into Venetian life away from the more tourist-heavy areas, yet remains conveniently connected to all the city’s must-see landmarks. From your apartment, you can easily access water taxis and vaporetti (water buses) to explore the Grand Canal, the colorful island of Burano, the glass-making center of Murano, or any of Venice’s countless architectural and artistic wonders.

The San Simeon Apartments combine the independence of apartment-style accommodations with the conveniences of a well-regarded hotel establishment. With its solid 7.5 rating, guests can anticipate comfortable quarters that serve as an ideal base for Venetian adventures. The property captures the distinctive character of Venice, where historic charm meets practical amenities. After days spent navigating Venice’s labyrinthine canals and alleyways, visiting world-class museums, or simply enjoying aperitivo at a canalside café, the San Simeon Apartments offer a welcoming retreat. The apartments’ position along the waterfront promises captivating views and the ambient sounds of Venice’s unique maritime atmosphere – from the gentle lapping of water against the fondamenta (canal-side walkways) to the occasional calls of gondoliers navigating nearby waterways. For travelers seeking an authentic Venetian experience in a location that balances accessibility with atmosphere, the San Simeon Apartments provide a compelling blend of comfortable accommodations and unmatched setting in one of the world’s most extraordinary cities.

  What could be improved: bed and pillows slightly uncomfortable

• Nadia from Ireland – 12 June 2023 (7/10)

  The hotel is in front of Arsenale waterbus stop, so if you go with luggage you won't be carrying too long. It's quite far at the end of the island, so it's closer to st.Marco and the small islands.
  
  What could be improved: So the location is a bit tricky. It is located around 30 mins from the check-in point (near the train station). So I needed to go to the check in point first, paid the city tax and took the key, receptionist explained hoe to get to the apartment, and then I took the waterbus to go to the apartment. The actual apartment is not as fancy as the pictures. If you go with many heavy bags, it is better to get water taxi to your apartment.

  Great location by water amd sea bus Station, close to the biennale
  
  What could be improved: I didnt like that the check in was at a very different location. Cost us a lot of time and was not mentioned at booking

• Kimberly from United States – 15 July 2022 (7/10)

  Finding the apartment was difficult. Once we got in we were grateful! It was clean but the shower was really small, if we were heavy set, it wouldn't be possible to shower! The bed was hard and uncomfortable to me. The location was perfect for everything. The water busses were located right out side the apartment. The people were friendly.
