The Hemingway is a very charming Venetian apartment with terrace renovated to the highest standards and beautifully equipped with refined antique furniture.
It is a fabulous apartment for those who wish to soak in the feeling of a real Venetian home, who desire to live like a local in a hidden gem.
The unit is part of a three storey's historic building and it is laid out on two levels: at the third floor you can find the bright living area with comfortable seating space and a full optional beautifully appointed kitchen with oven and dishwasher and a dining table ideal for four people. At this level there is a TV room that can be used as a second bedroom with a comfortable double pull-out bed. It leads to the fabulous panoramic and very intimate terrace: a lovely place for having a drink with your traveling companion! There is a small but very functional bathroom with shower on the same floor.
A wooden staircase takes you to the mezzanine floor characterized by wooden beams and parquet flooring. The mezzanine above the living room is a perfect office space or can be used as a third bedroom with its comfortable single sleigh bed. Walking through the mezzanine you can finally reach the nicely decorated master bedroom with panoramic view and its luxury bathroom with bathtub and double sink.
The apartment is located in a quiet non-touristy area of Dorsoduro, close to Chiesa dell’Angelo Raffaele and in easy walking distance to the livelier Campo Santa Margherita area where you find many authentic Venetian restaurants and bars, supermarket, open-air fruit, vegetable and fish market.
The guests choosing this apartment must be aware of the delicacy of the furniture which is not common in rental apartments but we (and the owner) trust that great care will be taken just as if it was your apartment.
The apartment is equipped with Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, washing machine and there is all you need for a comfortable stay in this magical city.

We really enjoyed this beautiful apartment in a very quiet area far from the tourist crowds. Great location, only at 10 minute walk from Piazzale Roma where are the buses for the airport and close to main vaporettos. The Dorsoduro area is very interesting where many locals live, very easy to walk to other parts of Venice. I stongly recommend it.

The apartment was a great place to relax during our 4 days stay in Venice and had an inspiring atmosphere. Every one of our family could find a safe haven and the toys upstairs were a great surprise for my daughter! The owner of the flat did a great job with the furnishing and has a nice taste especially with regard to the selection of the paintings.
Hemingway: The apartment is for us who were working at the Iuav perfectly situated. Also for people who like to stay out of the worst tourist tracks and prefer the more authentic bars, restaurants and shops in the sestiere Dorsoduro. It is comfortable with a little balcony and charmingly furnished with slightly eccentric and tasteful furniture, design and artworks, i.e. nice Fornasetti pieces. Good for artists, architects, designers, writers etc. Good shutter management is necessary to keep the apartment cool.
