There are many upsides to booking a vacation rental property in Venice. Some of these include budget-friendliness, convenience, room to spread out, and kitchens to prepare some of your own meals.
But what if you arrive in town way ahead of your check-in time (generally around 3pm) and/or there’s a space between the 11am check-out and your train or flight departure? With 3 hours to kill, what ever will you do with your bags?
Although a handful of properties may have reception areas or offices that will hold your bags, most are privately owned and don’t offer this service. You don’t really want to be sipping your Bellini in St. Mark’s Square – having to keep one eye on the beautiful architecture and the other on your Samsonite, do you? It’s a myth that rolling bags are prohibited in Venice, however, dragging them up and down tiny footbridges all morning may not be your idea of fun.
Your worries are over…
Located in the historic center of Venice, a 4-minute stroll from both Piazza San Marco and the famed Rialto Bridge, Venice Luggage Deposit provides a solution to one of the most common travel dilemmas.
Called a deposito bagagli in Italian, Venice Luggage Deposit offers reasonably priced, per-day holding of your luggage, with discounts for multiple bags. Special delivery service is available and they also accept oversize or unconventional items (i.e., surfboards) – but that costs a little bit more. If you prefer, you can also make arrangements beforehand online, although no appointment is necessary – just drop ‘em and go!
You’re now ready to roam the winding streets and canals of Venice, hands free.
