The Alighieri “C” is an elegant two bedrooms apartment with spectacular canal views, spacious sunny terrace, accessible by elevator.
It is one of the four apartments comprising the whole top floor of an historical Palazzo found in the west side of Castello District, only a few minutes’ walk from San Marco Square.
The building is accessible by private water taxi from the Marco Polo airport in only 20 minutes and it takes less than 5 minutes’ walk to reach the Vaporetto/Alilaguna (ferry boat) stop San Zaccaria, thus very central.
In the surroundings there are lots of artisan and antique ateliers, local food shops and delicious osterie (traditional restaurants). Some of the cultural landmarks that can be found close by in Castello beside the well-known Arsenale and Biennale Gardens include Basilica Santi Giovanni e Paolo, Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni, Church of San Giorgio dei Greci, Campo Santa Maria Formosa, Church of San Zaccaria and many others.
The entire property has been completely and luxuriously refurbished in 2013: an elevator has been installed, the original terrazzo flooring and art-deco inspired inlaid parquet renovated, frescoes and stuccoes brought back to the ancient splendour, the spacious terrace equipped with table, sunshade and sun chairs.
The Alighieri “C” can be accessed from a very bright and elegant shared entrance hall giving on to the communal terraces. It has a living/dining room with stunning canal view overlooking Rio di San Lorenzo and a modern kitchen. There are two good size bedrooms (both can be prepared as king size bed or two singles on request) with two excellent bathrooms (one with shower, the other with bathtub), offering total comfort and privacy to 4 guests.
The Alighieri “C” shares the same communal terrace and great view of the other 3 apartments, maximizing the bedroom comfort while offering less living room space compared to Alighieri “B” and “D”. All four apartments can be rented together for groups of up to 12 people, just book directly the Palazzo Alighieri.

September 2024, Sergio (Italia) An excelent apartment, we World not Chance a Thing. We liked the rooftop terrace very much and thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
Sehr zentrale Lage. Sehr schöne Wohnung mit 2 Terrassen und sehr schönem Ausblick. Sehr zu empfehlen!
The neighbourhood is lovely! Vibrant and filled with locals. There’s a huge collection of restaurants and easy access to water transportation The apartment description and pictures are accurate. The unit is perfect for a small family or 2 couples traveling together. The beds and bedding are high quality
This apartment was very close to St Mark's and all the attractions. The view of the canal was beautiful. It was a pleasure staying there for a week and I would highly recommend this property to anyone.
This lovely apartment was perfect for us! The bathrooms were great, the view was lovely, and the location great! I would stay there again anytime!
This apartment is right on the canal, close to many shops and restaurants and only about an 8 minute leisurely walk to St.Marco. All arrangements went smoothly from the water taxi, to Hannah who met us and was very friendly and helpful, and our stay in general. I would recommend this apartment as it was quiet but still close to all amenities.
We loved our stay in Alighieri C. The location was great and the view on the canal was gorgeous. The apartment was very quiet with the windows closed. There is not much seating in the den, but a great place for our family of four.
Great apartment in a convenient location. Staff at Truly Venice were very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend.
When we chose Venice for our family reunion, we despaired about finding an ideal location for fifteen people for eight nights -- in high season! Truly Venice answered our dreams and more by suggesting the four apartments of Palazzo Alighieri. We were two grandparents, four adult children and their spouses, five grandchildren aged 12 - 21, and the site gave us all room to spread out, have privacy, gather for late night conversation, and more. Apartment C in particular suited a family of four. It's carefully furnished, light and cheerful, with lovely views. Privacy suits this group, so the apartment, slightly around a corner from others, was perfect. We used apartment B as our social space and gathering spot, with the grandparents in the large bedroom and one teenage in the sofa bed. It was ideal, with its large sofa and dining table in the spacious and gracious salone. Apartment A housed one couple very comfortably, while D held two couples with two young adults happily up in the comfy loft. And the terrace! Venice was HOT and quite crowded, but the terrace with its umbrella was where everyone gravitated after a long day sightseeing. We can't say enough positive things about our stay. The location is ideal, far enough from San Marco to be quiet, but close enough for daily treks. Many fine restaurants are close by, but again away from the tourist fray. The Truly Venice team made our planning and arrival easy and stress free, anticipating our questions and our needs at every step. Thank you!
