Ca' Foscolo's price/performance cannot be beaten in Venice. For 180-220 euros you get a good sized apartment .... our apartment has 2 bedrooms, a good bathroom and a huge living room with full cooking facilities and a huge fridge. That enabled us to stock up 4 days worth of breakfast from the nearby supermarket. There's a traditional drip coffee maker with excellent coffee powder provided by the apartments. Of course, you cannot expect a hotel's standard when it comes to changing towels and tidying the rooms. This is sort of a self-service type apartment and the reception is staffed only from 10am to 3pm but there is a sister property Hotel Bruno round the corner that is a full service hotel and we can call them or pop over if we need anything .... we also have the phone numbers of the staff. The location is excellent, 5 minutes walk from Rialto bridge and 10 from Piazza San Marco. It is a 16th century building so the outside is a little run down but I found it quite charming .... a practical concern would be the lack of elevators and the hotel reception is on level 3. My 63 year old mother could do it reasonably well but that's also because she didn't have to carry any luggage. I would highly recommend Ca' Foscolo as, by far, the best value hotel I have had in my 4 months of travel in (the expensive part of) Europe. The apartment we had could easily fit 2 in the master bedroom, one in the single room and 2 more in the living room with sofa bed!

We had a FANTASTIC stay at Ca Foscolo. This place is best value for Venice! The appartments are spacious, have modern design furniture, air conditioning and have a touch of luxury. Staff is very friendly and competent. We left with an evening flight and were allowed to keep the appartment the whole day without extra charge (cooked lunch, took a shower before we left). The surroundings are perfect, cross Rialto Bridge and you are at the market square (fresh fish!) which is an asset considering the fully equipped kitchen in the appartments. Ca Foscolo is worth every penny!

Paolo & Patrizia were great hosts, very helpfull. If in Venice and want a nice comfortable apartment, and GREAT service, Residence Ca'Foscolo is the place, we had a great time. It's true that the exchange rate does not favor US travelers right now, but it was worth every Euro we paid. GREAT!

We are a family of 5 and stayed in an apartment here- it was wonderful- very beautiful & comfortable- It was perfectly stocked for cooking, which we did a few nights to hedge against the poor exchange rate- Venice in gereral is a very expesive place to stay, and even more so over the Easter weekend- Paulo & Patrizia were perfect hosts and attended to our many questions. She even walked us over to the local supermarket.It is extremely well located and very easy to find. We would recommend the property with out hesitation. Everything was brand new and in perfect condition. We had a wonderful stay there.We felt very comfortable at Ca Foscolo.

Group of 5 (4 young men and grandfather) First time in Venice and glad we chose Ca'Foscolo. Very nice apartment a stone's throw away from the Rialto. 2/2 spacious rooms, bathrooms, kitchen, living room. Great pub and pizza shop just over the small bridge to the left when you exit. THE BEST gelato in all of Italy at Le Boutque del Gelato. My only negative is that the actual street of the address wasn't given and we ended up running around Venice trying to find the apartment. But very minor compared to the great experience we had.

Great place in a great location between Rialto bridge and San Marco. Gave it a 5 for public areas, because there really aren't any. But who needs it with plenty of space indoors and and Venice a step away?

We travelled as a family with baby und a little toddler. When we arrived we were told to leave the apartment due to "technical reasons". I'm sure, they just where overbooked. They reserved a loud and small hotel room some hundred meters along. Guess how funny it is to relocate with two little children and lots of stuff (and of cource without any help of the hotel management). That day was definitely lost. We had a confirmation for a complete stay and were kicked out after one night. Never again!

The condominium was and was very convenient so that it was near Rialto, and the market etc. were also near. The interior of the room was also wonderful. It is easy to have used that there were especially two bathrooms.

Our stay at Ca'Foscolo was excellent. The rooms were spacious and clean. We stayed in the 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment and everything was excellent. The location is also great. Very close to the Rialto Bridge and within walking distance to St. Mark's Square. There are great shops nearby and a supermarket just a few feet away. It is in a very quiet location, right next to the oldest church in Venice. Would highly recommend.

The Residence Ca' Foscolo was much better than I expected. The rooms were very clean and spacious and the location is great. It's a hop skip and a jump away from the Rialto and about a 5 minute walk from Piazza San Marco. Just outside the apartment to the left is a Internet location, a Ristorante, a Pub, and a Pizzeria. It's also very close to Via San Lio which has great cafes, restaurants, and shops. The one negative was that it took me about 1 hour to find the location...the address provided by the owner/Venere is listed incorrectly.
