The Zen is a luxurious boutique apartment nestled in a quiet, little square only few steps to Piazza San Marco and the Grand Canal.

This two-bedroom apartment in the San Marco District near luxury shopping and steps from the La Fenice Opera House has been exquisitely renovated.

Tucked into a quiet courtyard behind the Westin Europa & Regina, Zen is bright, refreshingly air-conditioned, and stunningly decorated and equipped.

Occupying the top floor of a three-storey building, guests enter a serene living/dining area with an open fully equipped brand-new kitchen. Soft lighting and French style enhance the comfort of this petite apartment (60 square meters). Wallpapers evoke Venice’s history and the glorious Damascene silks of the trading era. The open-beamed ceiling and skylight expand the sense of space and airiness. The sleek marble top dining table and designer chairs add comfort and panache.

Each bedroom has a king bed that can be set up as two singles if requested. The wardrobes offer ample hanging and storage space. One very attractive bathroom with a large walk-in glass shower serves the two bedrooms.

Other amenities include TV, DVD and CD players, air-conditioning throughout, Wi-Fi, a washing machine-dryer, induction stove, microwave-convection oven, fridge with freezer, dishwasher, kettle, toaster, coffee maker and more.

Zen is in mid-way between two Vaporetto stops on the Grand Canal: (Santa Maria del) Giglio, where the #1 stops, and San Marco Vallaresso (at Harry’s Bar), where the #2 stops. Between Zen and each of the Vaporetto stops there is a single bridge.
