Description Silk Road Hideaway: Venezia

Just a short walk from St. Mark's Square, this apartment ticks all our boxes for a Venetian home – the living room windows open out onto a canal, the location is central, and the well-equipped kitchen means you can try and emulate the local cuisine. Throughout the home are curiosities from around the world, reflecting the adventurous spirits of the host and local hero Marco Polo. And although you'll be on adventures of your own with so much nearby, the spacious interior means when you're here you'll have plenty of space to yourselves – as such, the home is ideal for both families and friends.

Home truths:
*There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the first-floor entrance of the home. *At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on the small single bed in the living area. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
