If you’re looking for eclectic with a capital E, then you just found it. Zebra-print furnishings combine with ornate Venetian mirrors, Persian rugs and antique sculptures in a way that somehow comes together. It’s a great apartment for a romantic break in Venice, with plenty of space for two. The sunny terrace with views over the city is a nice touch, and you’re right on the gondola crossway between Rialto and San Marco, so there’s always something to watch down below. Take the two-minute stroll to the ludicrously beautiful St Mark’s Basilica for an iconic Venetian experience, or go on a half-hour walk to Piazzale Roma via landmarks such as the Rialto Bridge and the Frari. Make sure you’re back in time for a spritz on the terrace as the sun goes down.

Local guide
About San Marco
San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists. It’s packed with monuments – it has spectacular palaces and churches, and consistently beautiful Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The central square is, unsurprisingly, an important tourist hub. A lot of the luxury hotels are around here, so it’s not necessarily the place to find authentic, family-run restaurants or cafes. This area’s known for...
