The simply-monikered, anything-but-ordinary DD724 is a charming, contemporary B&B option for those looking to get far, far away from Grand Canal crowds.
You might be apprehensive at the directions to slip down an alley near the Guggenheim, but once you locate the design-savvy DD724, you’ll thank your lucky stars that you chose this delightful little stay.
It’s all about compact, boxy minimalism in ecru, slate and mocha, with design touches like playful lighting and Italian artwork adorning the walls. While ‘Essential’ rooms are purely functional and a great base for traversing the city, size up for suites overlooking the canal, or spring for a 50 sqm ‘Charming’ pad with four-poster bed and generous living room space.
An excellent breakfast buffet is served in the cosy cafe-cum-quirky library, while in the summer months there’s an option to take lunch aboard a raft in the nearby canal. If artsy boutique is the vibe you’re after, this Venetian bijou is your ticket.
