Apartment Zenzero

The Zenzero Luxury Apartment to rent in Venice is in a historic Palazzo, located in the San Polo district, on the square in front of the church of S. Agostino. It is very convenient for Rialto, famous for its bridge, fish and vegetable market, and also the Basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari and the Chiesa di San Rocco. The San Polo district also has the highest concentration of traditional Venetian tavernas, or ‘bacari’ which serve the delicious Venetian ‘tapas’ called ‘cicchetti’, as well as a variety of wines from both the Veneto area and other regions of Italy. The ‘Ruga Rialto’, the main pedestrian street connecting the Rialto area to Campo San Polo is lined with a variety of shops, many still run by Venetian artisans selling locally-made goods ranging from Italian leather, to clothing, to accessories. On the ground floor of the Palazzo, there is a restaurant, and are several popular restaurants and bars in the immediate vicinity.

The Palazzo has recently been renovated to create nine luxurious rental apartments, each of which is named after one of the spices which started arriving in Venice from 1200, transforming its cuisine, its economy, its art and its lifestyle. Zenzero is an elegant 110 m2 apartment located on the first floor (‘piano nobile’) of the Palazzo. The accommodation comprises two bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, two bathrooms and a large living room with balcony. It boasts 3.6 metre high ceilings, enormous rooms and wonderful Venetian views. The apartment’s 35 m2 living room has views over the sleepy canal of San Polo and features a stone mantelpiece, beamed ceilings and oak floors. Furnishings are in neutral colours with brown and lilac accents used to add flair to the colour scheme.

The main bedroom has high windows windows facing the Palazzo’s quiet courtyard. Adjoining is a luxurious bathroom encased in Istrian Stone. High-end finishes include antique mirrors and a walk-in shower with large water head. The large eat-in kitchen opens to a private decked terrace with table and chairs, overlooking the gardens. Custom-made cabinetry for the kitchen appliances contrasts with a XV Century sideboard and an antique Murano glass chandelier. To the left of the living area is the second bedroom with en-suite bathroom, where a french window opens onto a balcony with view over the garden and canal. The bathroom lined in Istrian stone has a bathtub with shower. Amenities include air conditioning, home automation system, satellite/cable TV, audio system and Wi-Fi internet. A choice of feather or anti-allergic pillows and duvets is offered, and there are hairdryers in the bathrooms. Guests also have access to a dryer, ironing facilities and baby equipment.
