Locanda ai Santi Apostoli is a small hotel where, after you’ve negotiated the heavy gate off Strada Nuova, a tiny lift will take you to a converted top couple of storeys on the Grand Canal on a bend just north of the Rialto Bridge with sweeping views to the left and right and the bustling markets opposite.
Room 9 is one of two rooms overlooking the canal, which you will never want to leave while Claudio, the owner, and his staff will make you welcome. You can come and go, rather grandly, direct from the canal too, they have a door and jetty which, for a 5am departure through the mist of a deserted Grand Canal sure beats a minicab to any airport I know!
