The San Bortolo is a bright, airy and recently restored apartment strategically located at the foot of the Rialto Bridge in the oldest part of the historic town.
It is found at the crossroad of the most important artistic and cultural itineraries, right behind the statue of Carlo Goldoni in Campo San Bartolomeo, the classic meeting place for local Venetians.
Simply step out home and find a multitude of cafés, restaurants, osterie and bacari scattered in the nearby streets. Boutiques, department stores, pharmacies, supermarkets and the colourful outdoor Rialto Market are just behind the corner. A few more steps and can be found a less touristy and still highly authentic Venice, with spectacular lesser-known sites. The public transports and the private water taxi dock are a few meters far and no bridges in between.
It is bright and airy, recently restored, with a functional layout. It receives plenty of natural light at any time of the day because it opens on three sides. The living room and master bedroom look out on the lively Campo San Bartolomeo. If you prefer not to participate in its vitality, just close the soundproof double-glaze windows for total silence.
The San Bortolo is composed also of one twin/double bedroom, one single bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen and two luxury bathrooms with windows overlooking the picturesque and winding streets and roofs tops of the city. The entrance hall connects the various rooms and bathrooms being positioned centrally in the layout of the apartment.
The recent restoration has brought back to light antique frescoes and a stone portal with ancient and characteristic graphite bricks used from the twelfth to the fifteenth century, which were hidden under the layers of the past renovations. These elements combine with other more recent ones like the colourful Venetian Terrazzo flooring, different in each room, and with the modernity of the service rooms, equipped with the latest comforts.
Even the furniture is composed of elements from various periods: the comfortable sofas and fresh linen combine with authentic 20th century pieces, inspired by contemporary designers. The paintings collected by the caring owners, who enjoy their holiday home in Venice when not rented, show that Venice can be represented by various international artists. The selection of photographic art books can drive excursions.
The San Bortolo guarantees all modern comforts such as air conditioning system, efficient heating system, Wi-Fi internet connection, Satellite TV, DVD player, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, 3 burners stove, fridge, etc.
The San Bortolo is a versatile apartment suitable to everyone, for both short and long-term rentals.
