The Albrizzi is an elegant and charming 3-bedroom apartment found in a tucked away spot in the very centre of San Marco District.
Come lift the lid on this treasure chest apartment hidden deep within the heart of the city.
Located in a quiet little square called Corte Gregolina only two minutes’ walk from the busy St. Mark’s Square, the stylish Albrizzi Apartment welcomes 5 guests in warmth and well-being in a softly lit setting of wonderful original artwork, antique oriental carpets, and characterful wooden beams dating back to the 18th Century.
Beautifully dressed by its interior designer owner and faintly reminiscent of the far eastern travels of Venetian adventurers and traders of times long gone by, its rich colours and faded elegance are both opulent and relaxing, while exquisite Italian and Chinese furnishings from a Neapolitan family collection now call Venice and Albrizzi their home.
Boasting breath-taking views of St. Mark’s Bell Tower and the picturesque canals nearby, the apartment sits on the 4th floor (reached by stairs) and offers supremely comfortable and fully air-conditioned accommodation.
It is composed by a small internal entrance hallway leading into a cosy living room perched above the intersection of 3 canals (Rio de San Salvador, Rio dei Scoacamini and Rio dei Bareteri) and enjoying the inimitable sound of gondolas as they glide by below, a compact and well-equipped kitchenette (also above the canals), a dining room at the centre of the apartment with an antique table seating 5 people, three very chic double bedrooms each with a queen bed (one over the canal with a en-suite bathroom with shower, two with wonderful views towards St. Mark’s Bell Tower, one with an en-suite bathroom with shower, the other have access to a third separate bathroom with shower through the dining room.
In an evocative area of Venice completely encircled by canals, moments on foot to the iconic sights of St. Mark’s Square including the Basilica, the Campanile, the Torre dell’ Orologio (Clock Tower) and the Doge’s Palace, and Venice’s semi-secret hidden treasures such as the dainty fairy tale Scala Contarini del Bovolo.
Within minutes of the recently restored Rialto Bridge on the Grand Canal (crossing over to the famous Rialto fish, fruit and vegetable markets on the other side – food-lovers’ heaven!) and supermarkets for hassle-free shopping and self-catering supplies.
Also, within easy reach of Vaporetto stops, one at Rialto and the other at San Marco Vallaresso, for easy exploration of the city and beyond!

testimonials
Anna from Truly Venice met us off the boat and walked us to the accommodation. Even though there were 5 of us she kept an eye that we were all still with her, not an easy task with the small busy streets and us wandering! Anna was very friendly and pointed out local shops for us on the way. The place was amazing - each bedroom had their own bathroom so that was perfect. Beds were very comfortable and breakfast around the dining room table to start the day was such a pleasure. We could also sit in the lounge at the end of the day to finish as we started! Location was fantastic, couldn’t have asked for better. There were a lot of steps up to the accommodation but they were marble and well lit and we knew all about them before we went so no surprise. Truly Venice were also flexible on booking in and out times so that was great for us. Thank you Truly Venice - you certainly helped us have a brilliant holiday and we’d recommend you to everyone who’s going to Venice that’s for sure.

February 2024, Philip (Usa) Highly recommended and we hope to return. The apartment was excellent - really well designed and accurately described. 4th floor with no lift would be tricky for some but for us it was ok and provided really excellent views. I loved the fact we had San Marco’s Campanile on one side with the typical courtyard and then the 3 canals on the other. It was fun to watch the gondolas whilst making coffee. The kettle broke and was replaced really quickly. It was amazing to turn down from the busy route between San Marco and Rialto to our quiet courtyard. Everything was clean and the beds were comfortable. Excellent service with the water taxi and being met to take to the apartment (and dealing with my flight being cancelled so needing to come a day earlier at last minute notice). Due to the flight issue I stayed there alone for one night as a single woman and it felt really safe.
Fantastic flat, brilliant location, very comfortable
Beautiful apartment, very functional as well as cozy and beautifully decorated. Each bedroom with its own bath, not a usual find for an European apartment. Unbeatable location within 3 minutes walk from San Marco Piazza.
