CHARMING HOUSE IQS

Landing late at Marco Polo, 30 minutes later by watertaxi in our own appartement in the very hart of Venice. The reception was so warm, personal and generous (we got and free update) that it felt like family. The iQs is so spacious (2 bedrooms, 4 showers, 3 TV's, livingroom, kitchen), well equipped and very clean. But the location makes it unique. At only 5 min from St Marc's square and 7 min from Rialto bridge, we enjoyed the tranquility of the streets when a lot of tourist were gone and tasted Venice at its best.

We had a great time at this so charming and unique property. Charming house IQS occupies the ground floor inside a 14th century building. . It is not a usual hotel but the service and customer care surpass all your expectations. We really felt pampered by Tania and Ecaterina. Location is beautiful, all within easy walking distance. We ate very well in the restaurants recommended by the girls. One in particular we loved it was Alle Testiere. They also helped us to buy tickets for the train to continue our holiday. We will be back for sure.

I agree with everyone else's positive reviews about the Charming House IQS. It's in a great location near St. Mark's Square, but a little removed, so it's not too crowded when you walk out the door. We took a water taxi to and from the airport and were able to disembark with our luggage right into the lobby. We had two suites between 5 of us and they were both large and comfortable and gave us plenty of space to not feel crowded. The ladies at the front desk were lovely and there to greet us each morning with fresh pastries and any advice or directions we needed. One day we were looking for an activity to entertain our two teenagers and they suggested we visit the Damien Hirst exhibit at the Palazzo Grassi and Punta della Dogana. The kids loved it. We had a great stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

This is an amazing location in the heart of venice. This is a beautiful apartment style hotel. You can sleep right next to a canal of Venice. The rooms are spacious and brand new. Each suite comes with a fully appointed kitchen. Staff was very accommodating and gave great local recommendations. The location is ideal, short walk to St Marks Sqaure and Rialto bridge. The Coop grocery store is a 2 minute walk from the hotel. I definitely recommend the water taxi from the airport. It is a little pricey but its like your own personal Gondola ride. We also had hand delivered pastries every morning provided by the staff. We couldn't be happier with this place.

My family - 2 adults, 5 kids - spent a night at Charming House IQs and couldn't have picked a better hotel for us in Venice. Rooms were large and excellent. Location convenient to the major sights. And the service was extremely helpful. We would stay again next time.
