Al Portico Guest House – A Favorite for Families in Venice

Al Portico Guest House offers 10 en-suite rooms and spacious apartments, all with air conditioning. Each room includes a private bathroom and an electric kettle with a selection of teas. The hotel provides a variety of room types, from double rooms to two-bedroom apartments, catering to both couples and families.

The guest house is located in the Cannaregio district, a less touristy area within walking distance of the Jewish Ghetto. Venezia Santa Lucia Train Station is a short 10-minute walk away, and a vaporetto stop provides easy access to St. Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. Nearby restaurants, cafes, and shops are within a 2-minute walk, yet the street remains quiet at night.

From April to October, breakfast is served on the rooftop terrace with views over Venice rooftops. The breakfast menu includes croissants, pancakes, jams, Nutella, ham, salami, cheese, and hot beverages. Guests can also request breakfast served in their room.

The hotel's staff provides personalized itinerary suggestions and a detailed map of Venice upon arrival. Guests receive restaurant recommendations and local tips for exploring beyond typical tourist paths. Luggage storage, express check-in/check-out, and a tour desk are available, and staff assist with carrying heavy bags up the stairs.

Al Portico Guest House offers family rooms and apartments with separate living areas, including a two-bedroom split-level apartment. The hotel's location in a safe, quiet area allows children to explore the neighborhood easily. The staff can arrange early check-in upon availability and provide a list of nearby family-friendly restaurants.
