A graceful haven of gentility and tranquility with delightful garden views, peacefully situated to the rear of the 15th Century Gothic 'Palazzo Loredan Dell’ Ambasciatore' on the Grand Canal, with private water entrance. Considered one of the finest in Venice and oozing history from every pore, the Palazzo itself (birthplace of two ancient Doges of Venice - Leonardo Loredan (1501-21) and Francesco Loredan (1752-62)), enjoys a truly outstanding position between the Accademia Bridge/Academy of Fine Arts and the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum of 18th Century Art/ vaporetto stop, close to Campo San Barnaba and opposite Francois Pinault's Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art.
Impeccably decorated with dash and vitality and featuring carefully selected antiques from the owner's private collection, each shown to their advantage against a complementary backdrop of sunny Mimosa yellows, vivid Prussian blues, crisp white beamed ceilings and the deep, rich patina of polished hardwood flooring, Ca' Cerchieri Mezzanine offers generously proportioned accommodation for six and is located between the first and second floors of the Palazzo (a lift can be taken to the second floor, leaving one flight of stairs to descend on foot).
It offers air-conditioning throughout plus wireless internet connection and features a stylishly elegant yet cosy and very comfortable living room with deep, luxurious sofas, interesting artwork and restful views over the owner's private walled garden, a separate dining room and a modern, well-equipped and fully-fitted kitchen.
There are three charming and quiet double bedrooms, each with garden views and each ensuring a heavenly night's sleep - two with beautifully embellished double beds and finished in cheerful colours (the master bedroom having an up-to-date en suite bathroom with bathtub and separate shower) and a pretty third bedroom with two chintz-covered single beds. The two further bathrooms (one with bathtub and the other with shower) are modern, spacious and immaculately presented. Please note that in order to accommodate a slightly larger party, access to a further bedroom (simple in design and with a single bed) is possible at a surcharge of 50.00 Euros per night.
Are you a part of a larger group who'd like to stay close together at the Palazzo? Other apartments available at this prestigious property (which played host to the New Zealand National Pavilion at the 54th Venice Art Biennale) include Ca' Cerchieri 1, Ca' Cerchieri Terrace and the spectacular Ca' Cerchieri Piano Nobile and Ca’ Cerchieri Loredan.
