About this apartment rental

CIN: 027042-LOC-10852
This flat has the C.I.R. code 027042-LOC-10852 and City code M02704210785.
Cavazza Palazzo Foscari Mocenigo dalle Zogie (i.e. "from the beads") is a magnificent late gothic building of the first half of the Fifteenth Century that was donated in 1460 by Tommaso Cavazza, to the Confraternity of St. Mary of the Charity, then sold in 1487 to Michiel Foscari. In 1491, Pellegrina Foscari, Michiel’s daughter, married Alvise Mocenigo and brought it into dowry to her husband. The beautiful internal court consists of a double order of columns with a well with the Foscari’s coat of arms and an imposing "ingresso d’acqua" (“gate from the water”) on Rio del Piombo.
You will reach the inner courtyard of the Palace by a private marble “fondamentina” (sidewalk on water) that starts from Ponte delle Paste. Within the court, at the left of the entry, a stone staircase with marble lions is the exclusive entrance of your apartment. Climb the stone stairs outside and few internal steps (total 23, no elevators in Venice!) to get to the first Noble Floor of the Palace.
On the landing, to the left, the blue and gold lacquered, glass windowed, door leads to your 50 square metres apartment.
Air conditioning is guaranteed by a portable conditioner during summer.
There are two rooms: a 20 square metres living room with mt.5,30 ceiling heights, with a comfortable sofa, two armchairs "Louis XV" and a turkish sofa. Two large windows with curtains in flax fabric get to the balcony in “Istria” stone (mt. 2.70 x 0.80) facing Rio del Piombo, perfect for a late evening cocktail in June, an afternoon reading in spring, or a warm breakfast in winter. Rio del Piombo and the near Rio della Fava, which insists on the Palazzo facade, are plowed by gondolas or boats goods, but this won't hurt you at night.
There’s the satellite TV. Internet is assured by WI-FI line whose access key you will find written within the apartment.
The second 16 square metres room includes kitchen with induction 4 burners fire cooking, an electric oven and a fridge. No dishwasher or washing machine.
The cook equipment is all of good supply and suitable for induction cooking - including the moka for Italian coffee - and with several small household appliances, including kettle and coffee maker...
On the side of the kitchen there is a small bathroom with wc, washbasin and shower (the hairdryer is available).
The spiral staircase leads to the 12 square metres loft where is placed the 140x200 cms. bed. On a corner, you will find two standers for clothes, shoes and sweaters. BECAUSE OF THE LOFT NO CHILDREN CAN BE ACCOMODATED IN THE FLAT! We will give you a set of queen-size bed sheets, a complete set of 3 towels, bathrobe and slippers for each guest. There is an ironing board with iron.
CITY TAX - € 4 each guest/day for the first 5 days of stay. Taxes have to be payed at check-in. We will give a receipt for the payment.
If you are two guests and you want the bed in the living room (the so-called Turkish sofa) to be made, there is an extra fee of € 30,00 for the work and supply of sheets.

I highly recommend staying at Palazzo Cavazza Foscari! It is in a wonderful location in the center of Venezia. The property was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We also had a lovely gift waiting for us on arrival, Also cold lemon & mint water waiting for us on arrival on a very hot day, which was very welcome and much appreciated. Our host Cristiana was wonderful and warm to communicate with throughout the entire process from booking to staying at her beautiful old Palazzo apartment. All in all It was an amazing chance to experience Venetian life , living like a local! Thankyou Cristiana for everything!

We really enjoyed our stay in this perfectly located apartment within a Venetian Palazzo. The apartment is as described and the images show. It’s perfectly located somewhat between St. Marks Square and the Rialto bridge. Therefore we were able to have a nice, relaxing lunch break during our sightseeing tours through Venice. The apartment is very well equipped and we were welcomed with some cookies and Prosecco though checking in late. The host was very friendly, proactive and responsive.

We really enjoyed our stay in this very lovely, historic apartment! The apartment is conveniently located, close to many little shops and restaurants and transportation on the Grand Canal. We especially liked watching the gondolas go by on the canal. Communication was very good and we very much appreciated that Ms. Claudia was there to greet us after our trains were late.

This is a traditional Venetian apartment in a good location, and with a yummy pasticceria just outside your door. But what makes this place truly special is the host! Cristiana makes you feel like an honored guest and is available to help in any way she can. Even though she was not onsite during our stay she guided us through a difficult week and we will be forever grateful.

A lovely apartment in a beautiful gothic palace, with all the essentials. The location is very convenient for arriving with cases, and discovering Venice. (Pasticceria Ponte delle Paste, situated next to the entrance to the palace is a must for coffee and cakes.)

Very comfortable and homey. It was like living hundred years ago with all the artifacts and waterways under your window. Yet, modern interior and appliances. A wonderful stay. Central to all of Venice.
