Al Portico Guest House offers 10 rooms spread across three floors in a 19th-century Venetian building.

Triple rooms and apartments (55-70 sqm) with kitchens and living spaces are available for longer stays.

Dining & Breakfast

A communal terrace serves breakfast between April and October. Nearby, Strada Nuova has bakeries like Da Nobile, cafés, and restaurants such as Alla Colombina. The Mercerie shopping street, 15 minutes away, offers dining options near Rialto and St Mark's Square.

Location & Transport

The guesthouse is in Cannaregio, a 10-minute walk from Santa Lucia train station and Piazzale Roma. The San Marcuola vaporetto stop (Line 1) provides direct access to St Mark's Square and the Grand Canal. Marco Polo Airport is 15 km away, reachable by bus (ACTV 5 or ATVO) or Alilaguna waterbus (Orange Line).

Nearby Attractions

St Mark's Square, the Rialto Bridge, and the Doge's Palace are 15-20 minutes on foot. The Jewish Ghetto, Murano glass shops, and the Teatro Italia are within 5 minutes. Staff can arrange tours to Burano, Torcello, and the Contarini del Bovolo staircase.

Guest Services

Staff assist with tour bookings, luggage storage, and local tips. Rooms are sanitized daily using ozone machines. Apartments include washing machines and kitchenware. No onsite gym or spa, but guided yoga and walking tours are available nearby.

“From what I gather, this guest house stands out for its location in the Cannaregio district, giving a less crowded, more authentic Venetian feel. The staff apparently excel at helping guests discover unique, local experiences. Add to that a communal terrace with views over the city rooftops, and it makes for a memorable stay.”
