This canalside apartment takes up the entire top floor of a 16th-century Gothic palazzo. It’s an elegant space with chandeliers and antique furniture, but it’s also a comfortable home-from-home. The location is undeniably the star of the show, just a short stroll from the Rialto Bridge and the crowds of St Mark’s Square, and boasting views over the Rio di San Luca canal. When you want to explore more of the city, it’s a quick walk to the Rialto and Sant’Angelo vaporetto stops.
