Corte della Pietà is a cosy brand-new one-bedroom apartment on the 1st floor of a 16th cent. building located next to the San Francesco della Vigna church with its Palladian façade, in a corner of Venice which has kept so far its Venetian character.
It is an ideal place to visit Venice, with Saint-Mark Square, the Rialto and the Biennale Gardens 10 minutes away walking, while protected from the main tourist flow.

The guests are alone in the apartment which is exclusively for them. It includes a living-room with a kitchen corner and a separate bedroom , aside from a bathroom with a shower.

The apartment is located in the heart of Castello district, considered the most genuinely Venetian.
You can visit in the immediate surrounding of the apartment the Palladian monastery-church of San Francesco della Vigna, the San Giovanni e Paolo basilica, the antique Arsenal and the confraternity houses (Scuole) of San Marco and San Giorgio degli Schiavoni.
Saint-Mark Square, the Rialto and the Biennale Gardens are about 10 minutes walking from the apartment.

There are many retail shops nearby, where you can shop food and drinks.

The closest vaporetto station to the apartment is Ospedale, which very convenient to go back and forth from the airport thru using the Alilaguna Blue Line shuttle, or to the Santa Lucia train station with vaporetti lines 41, 42, 51 and 52. Likewise, you can get a vaporetto to the Lido or to Murano every 12 minutes either at Ospedale or at Celestia vaporetti stations.
You need to walk about 10 minutes to go to Fondamente Nove vaporetti station to catch a boat to visit the lagoon islands (Torcello, Burano, Sant'Erasmo, ecc.).
It also takes about 10 minutes to walk to Piazza San Marco and to the Rialto Bridge.

    The best part is location, just 5 minutes walk to Rialto bridge, water bus station and 7 minutes walk to St Marks square. Murano is only 15 minutes from water bus station. The owner is an excellent person and very flexible. He made our stay memorable. We have absolutely no issue for the 2 nights we stayed. The house is equipped with everything with good qantity .The only problem is the apartment is at 4th floor and no lift. I always dreamed of staying in such kind of house. Thanks for making our stay a memorable one.

    The owners of this property are friendly and caring. They respond to emails promptly and communication regarding meeting time/place was excellent. The apartment is on the 3rd floor. It is clean and a good size for 2 or 3 people. I found the convenience of the washing machine and dishwasher excellent. The kitchen is large and fully equipped. We were staying in August so the downstairs air conditioner was great but the cool air didnt really reach the upstairs area. I found the ladder style stairs awkward. Unfortunately the kids did not like the pullout futon beds and the apartment is in desperate need of some new pillows. The location of this apartment is excellent as it is close to the Vaporetto and only a short walk to Rialto. Its safe and quiet. Overall its a really good place to stay.

    Although we knew in advance that the apartment was located on 2 floors, with the master bedroom being tucked into the attic on the 5th reached by a ship type ladder, this ladder was still very difficult to negotiate. The futon beds in the living room were very hard and the quality of the pillows was poor. The previous renter's linens were drying in the living room when we arrived, we put them away 2 days later. Pierre knew that the coffee maker only worked sometimes, but seemed unwilling to replace it when we brought it to his attention. We were forced to go to the local cafe for coffee. Useful maps of store locations and hours was lacking. Overall this wasn't a bad apartment considering that Venice is a seller's market. it was quiet and well located. If Pierre makes some improvements to this apartment, it may suit you.

    Pleasant and quiet district, without an abundance of tourists. 5 minutes on foot from a stop vaporetto, are convenient to reach Lido. Nearby fine cafes and restaurants. In a heat rescues the conditioner, but in the second room all the same too hot in the summer. If the Internet it is necessary to warn the owner of apartment is necessary. The sofa in a room inconvenient, isn't enough pillows, a small shower. The apartment is more likely intended on a family or a young pair.Fine picture from windows on roofs of Venice.

    My wife and I have enjoyed this very nice and a very quiet apartment remote from the tourist flow yet just 10 minutes away from San Marko Pl.

    Situated in a very quiet area of Venice, within walking distance of St. Mark’s Square, next to a vaporetto stop, the apartment is a perfect solution if you want to stay comfortable and at the same time see for yourself what living in Venice is like. The apartment was clean, spacious and air-conditioned, and had simply everything we needed. And last but definitely not least, the owner is one of the friendliest people we’ve ever met! Pierre seems to know everything about Venice (and not only:)). He met us at the station when we arrived so we didn’t have to worry if we would find the apartment (which might be a bit of a challenge at the beginning) and showed us around. One night Pierre took us to his favorite restaurant, where we met a Polish friend of his and where we could try some Venetian specialties he didn’t even let us pay for! So, if you’re thinking of coming to Venice, don’t hesitate to choose this apartment, you won’t regret it!

    The apartment is located on the top of an 18-century house of a narrow street in the middle of a quiet residential area. (And yet it is only a few steps to the local pub and square.) The apartment overlooks a quiet courtyard and from the bedroom (on a higher level) all you will probably hear is the old church bell. We loved coming home to this authentic Venetian flat. Pierre is a most gracious and welcoming host. We look forward to coming back to Venice!
