About this apartment rental

An ancient canal-side palace within minutes of St. Mark’s Square.

Hidden away on its landside within the secret courtyard ‘Corte Rubbi’, on the Castello/San Marco border, this once forgotten building has been magically transformed by restorers with vision and interior design savoir-faire.

Standing at the gondola-busy T-junction of the San Zulian and Bareteri canals, and encapsulating 10 dazzling apartments of varying colourway and size, the newly launched Corte Rubbi is but a stroll to some of Venice’s most iconic attractions and countless beguiling vistas on which to feast your eyes!

Easy to find (when you know the way!) from the shop-lined Campo San Bartolomeo and Salizada San Lio on one of Venice’s canal-encircled ‘islands within an island’, these imaginatively furnished apartments offer Wi-Fi and a communal laundry room and are spread across 4 floors with all upper floors reached by stairs.

Highly contemporary in style, air-conditioned** throughout and ranging from a charming studio for 4 to a fabulous penthouse with rooftop terrace, Corte Rubbi’s 10 apartments sleep up to 42 guests if booked exclusively and include:


Corte Rubbi 9 – on the 3rd Floor reached by stairs – sleeping 4 (+1). Upon previous request we can organize a porter service with a surcharge.

A vibrant and easy-living 2-bedroom apartment with sublime canal views comprising:

A main living / dining area delightfully decked out in shades of teal blue, taupe and Cole & Son’s Procuratie Con Vista wallpaper with warm wooden flooring underfoot, wooden beams overhead, a double sofa sleeping one guest and a pair of windows with decorative balustrades facing the water enjoying a view of the bridges over the charming ‘Rio dei Bareteri’ canal (Canal of the Cap Makers) and the little balcony of the secret little Casino Venier – an 18th-century ‘ridotto’ (today a cultural institution well hidden from the tourist crowds!)

Also in this room is a kitchenette to the rear, well equipped and suited to light cooking

2 gorgeous double bedrooms each with a double bed, Cole & Son’s Fornasetti Acqaurio wallpaper, and windows with decorative balustrades offering canal views to the fore (one with a direct view onto the ‘Rio dei Bareteri’)

Two luxurious bathrooms in marble, one with chromotherapy shower

Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer 9 other apartments within this palazzo: Corte Rubbi 1, Corte Rubbi 3, Corte Rubbi 5, Corte Rubbi 6, Corte Rubbi 8, Corte Rubbi 10, Corte Rubbi 11 and Corte Rubbi 5514


OUR COMMENT

A characterful and easy-living canal-view apartment in a vibrant, central and endlessly fascinating part of town.

A few steps away from the 18th-century church of Santa Maria Della Fava and close to a host of famous sights and attractions including the atmospheric Venetian time-capsule that is the Querini Stampalia, the fabulous Palazzo Grimani just off Campo Santa Maria Formosa, the Church of San Zaccaria with its crypt and wonderful Bellini altarpiece, and Vivaldi’s La Pietà on the sunny Riva degli Schiavoni waterfront…

… A short stroll towards a very sedate pace of life lived out amongst the tranquil calles, canals and green spaces of Castello with its laid-back and very genuine neighbourhood vibe…

… Or rise with the lark to embrace the atmosphere of St. Mark’s Square (‘the Piazza’) gloriously near-empty before its visitors arrive… or visit at night when the orchestras of Quadri and Florian play*, the bells of the Campanile (bell tower) toll, the marble of the Doge’s Palace glows, and the mosaics of the Basilica shimmer in the darkness…

Close to a host of shops, restaurants and bars including the much-lauded Alle Testiere, the upmarket Bistrot de Venise and Alle Corone of the nearby Hotel Reali, the charming Osteria Al Portego (delicious cicheti!) and Osteria Ae Sconte, plus Ristorante Santa Maria Formosa with its tables on the campo.

Also within easy reach of 4 well-stocked supermarkets – a Despar at Calle al Ponte de la Guerra, a COOP at Salizada San Lio, and a COOP and a Despar on the Riva del Carbon (near the Rialto Bridge), along with a ‘Vino Sfuso’ (wine on tap) shop on Calle del Mondo Novo and a greengrocer’s stand at Campo Santa Maria Formosa.

Within a short stroll of the vaporetto (water bus) stop at Rialto for exploring the city, the ‘Traghetto’ gondola ferry carrying passengers across the Grand Canal between the Riva Del Carbon and San Silvestro in the San Polo district and the vaporetto (water bus) stop at San Zaccaria for trips around town, visits to the Lido beaches and to the Biennale Pavilions at Arsenale and Giardini.

We loved our stay, from the view to the comfort to the (wonderful) air conditioning during a heat wave in Venice. A nice quiet spot still in the heart of everything, and our hosts went above and beyond to make our journey comfortable and make recommendations on how to best use our short time in the city.

Property management was very communicative and helpful. They even had a representative meet us at the vaparetto station and walk us to the apartment. The apartment building was beautiful and we loved the apartment we rented. It had wonderful canal views. It was updated with nice touches like the bathroom lighting and usb outlets. There wasn’t an elevator which was fine for us, but if you have mobility issues, it could be a problem. The washer and dryer was conveniently located right outside the apartment. It was a shared laundry room, but worked out fine for us. Everyone seemed to be thoughtful of others use of machines. The location was great. We were close to St Marks, but didn’t have the insane crowds. It was close to the Rialto Bridge and easy access to other areas of Venice. We would definitely stay there again.

I don't know where to begin. This apartment was absolutely beautiful. This 2 bedrooms/ 2 bath was completely updated. The main reason I picked this place was because of the view of the canal with the gondolas. I would just stand at the window admiring the view. the floors, ceilings just everything was so modern, I loved it. The building is very safe, and each floor landing was so unique. There was a washer/dryer on our landing, but I didn't use it. The location was close to everything. We walked to St. Marks Basilica, The Rialto Bridge, St. Marks Square, the Grand Canal, The Bridge of Sigh and so much more. We got on a gondola right in front of where the windows face. Marco was so helpful with arranging a private boat service to the apartment and he also arranged the boat service when we were leaving. The boat picked us up a few minutes away from the apartment and drove us straight to the Marco Polo Airport. I highly recommend this apartment; you will not be disappointed.

Property was very clean and comfortable. It would not have been easy to find it on our own but Marina greeted us at the ferry and walked us to the property. She also made sure we had everything we needed, answered all our questions and even booked an early morning water taxi to the airport for us. Just a note that there are a good number of stairs to get to this unit so if you have an issue with stairs you should try to book one of the lower units. Overall, it was a good experience.
