Palazzo Notarbartolo an extraordinary charming house in the heart of Venice

The apartment is part of a patrician palace presumably dating back to 1300, formerly the seat of the Doge Marcello family. For several centuries it has been owned by my family and only 40 years ago it has been renovated and divided into apartments.

It is located in an absolutely enviable and strategic position a few steps from the Rialto Bridge and Piazza San Marco.

It maintains many of its original beautiful and characteristic architectural elements: the verdant private garden with the characteristic well and the water door, the imposing wooden entrance door to the garden.

Inside the apartment, the high ceilings of over 5 meters with gothic trifora windows and the beautiful "Sansovino" coffered ceiling stand out. The apartment occupies part of the original ancient library and the dining room of the old building.

The house is equipped with effective air conditioning. In the living room, under the mezzanine, two large sofas (one of which is a double bed), a small table and a large flat-screen TV, offer a pleasant relaxation area. The dining area, under the large windows, is part of the living room. Everything is pleasantly decorated with antiques. On the mezzanine, above the sofa area, there is a bedroom with a queen-size bed, a single bed, a baby bed and a wardrobe. The kitchen is perfectly equipped and functional, there is a table for breakfast or informal meals. The main bathroom has a bathtub with shower, two sinks, toilet and bidet. Stairs lead from the entrance corridor to the bright main bedroom with half-moon windows. The master bedroom has a small bathroom with sink and toilet.

Completely renovated with a mix of modern sensitivity and respect for original details, Palazzo Notarbartolo will offer its guests a unique and unforgettable experience in Venice!

Tenants are provided with bed linen and towels; the cleaning service is provided only at the end of the stay for short periods, for periods longer than a week the price includes a cleaning service and change of linen.

The tourist tax of € 4.00 per person / night (up to 5 nights) is payable in cash on arrival. Children up to 10 years do not pay, young children from 10 to 16 pay 50%.

Family trip to Venice

We had a wonderful time in Venice! This apt is perfectly located- close to EVERYTHING- but also not in the highly crowded area. It was a retreat! The courtyard was quiet and beautiful. Our family of 5 were very comfortable - a short visit, 2 nights. Alessandra and Andrea were so helpful too in making recommendations on restaurants and transportation- they made the trip an easy success!

Going back in time

It was like going back in time (in a good way) in this apartment. It has the charm of being old, but the comfort of modern amenities. We were able to walk from the train station in about 30 minutes, but the walk was so interesting, the time flew by. The person who met us to check us in (Andrea) was amazing. After getting us settled, he walked us to a nearby restaurant for the best pizza we had the whole trip. I later messaged him for a gelato suggestion & he responded within minutes with another great recommendation. I really can’t recommend this place enough!

Beautiful apartment in centre of city

My family of 4 stayed at this beautiful, 2-story historic apartment for 3 days. The location is excellent -- on a quiet, lovely street but still steps from all of the main sites. Our kids loved the loft bedroom, and us adults loved that our bedroom was tucked away on the other side! There are some complications to traveling to Venice, but our host sorted those all out with us in advance, including clear instructions for a water taxi and awesome restaurant reservations. I enthusiastically recommend this property!

Amazing apartment with history!

Everything about our stay was perfection. From meeting the property manager at our boat taxi to check out, we loved our stay.

Apartment was very nice in good location

We were told house manager would meet us at the pier but he did not , then got mad at us because we could not find the apartment, charged us $45.00 for two people for three nights even though we told them a month before there would only be two of us. The best part of the trip was when we were leaving with heavy suitcases a Nigerian man said he would help us, he carried both of our suitcases to Rialto station and said he would take what ever we could pay, he was a Godsend, as we would have probably wandered through those alleys and steps forever, if he asks you if you need help please let him help you, you will not regret it, and pay him accordingly.

Wonderful stay

We had a fantastic three-day stay at this VRBO property in Venice. The two rooms were spacious, and the living and dining room were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city. The location is central, making it easy to get around and enjoy everything Venice has to offer. A special thanks to Andrea, the house manager, who was incredibly helpful and informative throughout our stay. We truly appreciated the hospitality and highly recommend this property for anyone looking to experience Venice comfortably!"

Two nights at Notarbartolo

We loved this beautiful apartment. We had a comfortable stay (helped by the air-conditioning as it was hot weather), felt very at home, and wished we had booked for longer. The palazzo apartment is in a quiet area in the heart of Venice. Both the owner, and the host Andrea who met us, gave us all the information we needed and Andrea gave us extra help when we needed it. We hope to return another year, and will recommend it to our friends.

Very well situated near major landmarks and waterways. We are a family of 6 with 3 kids aged 13, 9 and 8 and an older senior aged 80. Pros: good restaurant recommendations, walkable to major tourist sites such as St. Mark’s Plaza, lots of space for 6, washer and dryer, elevator, good enough AC by European standards, neighborhood was quiet and seemed safe. Cons: 1. the dryer takes a long time to dry and it’s not intuitive. I recommend that the owner leave instructions in English and Italian for how to use the machine. 2. Needs more instructions for how to get the Internet working. To get the Internet working the first time, you may have to press the button marked “Wireless- LAN.” This was off but once we turned it on it worked. 3. The garden shown in photos is just the entryway. You can’t really sit there. 4. Under the beds and in the closets it was dusty and the blankets in the closets need a wash. Kids thought the sheets were scratchy. 5. I appreciate it when a VRBO provides basics such as salt, shampoo, etc., even if they feel the need to charge more. This lodging had some of those things, such as salt and dish soap, but it would have been helpful to have even more supplies such as aluminum foil, Parmesan cheese, and a filtered water pitcher. It’s more environmentally friendly and less garbage. 6. Style: personally I recommend less decoration. Emptier = you can make it more your own space and it’s easier to find your stuff.
