Set on the beautiful Giudecca Island, away from the hustle and bustle of central Venice, Belmond's Hotel Cipriani has all the romance and allure of Renaissance Italy. Overlooking the shimmering lagoon towards famous St. Mark’s Square, this 5-star hotel offers guests the chance to experience a discreet, more demure side of Venice.
Bask in timeless glamour, from Venetian-style rooms to sprawling suites with lagoon views and private gardens at Palazzo Vendramin.
Take a private launch from the hotel’s dock to St Mark’s Square, gliding past palazzos and bridges in true Cipriani style.
Dine waterside at Cip’s Club, enjoy rustic charm at Giudecca 10 or savour Michelin-starred cuisine at the exquisite Oro restaurant.
Swim laps in Venice’s only Olympic-sized pool, sip spritzes at the poolside bar or unwind at the serene Casanova Wellness Centre.
Let Cipriani’s expert concierge unlock hidden Venice; private gondolas, exclusive tours, artisan workshops and tucked-away trattorias.
With ‘Palace’ in its name, you would be right to expect opulence and a sense of occasion during your stay at this Grande Dame of the Venetian hotel scene. Perfectly poised overlooking the canals, this historic property feels anchored to the heart of Venice, offering discerning guests history, sophistication, gastronomy and great service.
This private-island resort sits in the middle of the Venetian Lagoon, 20 minutes by complimentary shuttle boat from St Mark’s Square. It’s perfect, therefore, if you’re looking to escape the crowds that fill Venice in high season, or as a base for exploring the many other islands that lie scattered about the lagoon.
Just a 15-minute stroll from the Rialto Bridge, in the Arsenale district where the Biennale takes place, is the stylish, hip yet historically aware Ca' di Dio. As much a house as a hotel, Ca’ di Dio appeals to a young, design-conscious, international clientele, and challenges the perception of Venice hotels all being living museums packed with paintings, frescos and chandeliers.
A bastion of old-world glamour, the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is swathed in the drama and romance of a bygone age, from the impeccably liveried staff ready to greet you at the platform and the gleaming hundred-year-old restored carriages, to the parade of decadent dishes and champagne onboard.
