Hotel Cipriani, A Belmond Hotel, Venice

Guests who stayed here loved

“Where do I begin? I’d never been to Venice before, so I organised a transfer from Marco Polo Airport’s pier directly to Hotel Cipriani’s pier. This was easily organised through the hotel’s concierge and made the transfer so straightforward and stress free. I would recommend it to anyone and made for an amazing introduction to Venice. Arrival at the hotel pier was seamless. We were greeted by the friendly doorman and a member of reception staff directly from the boat and we were whisked into a cool reception area where we were offered a glass of champagne each. Our room was beautiful with a view looking out towards the lagoon and across the breakfast area. Every single member of staff was friendly and polite and said buongiorno whenever you passed them. The pool is absolutely amazing. We were there in mid June and the temperature was in the mid 30s, so the pool was a godsend. The gardens are beautiful and the whole hotel, communal areas and grounds are just an oasis of calm. Breakfast was equally impressive, again with lovely, friendly staff. The choice for breakfast was impressive. We’re were there for three nights and we barely got a chance to sample a fraction of their menu. We ate in two of the hotel’s restaurants. On the first night, we ate in Cips Club and on the second night we ate at Oro. I booked the Oro reservation easily enough through the hotel’s website, but for some reason, I could not book an evening reservation for Cips Club. I ended up emailing the concierge before we arrived and they sorted it all out for me. We had a table booked for 1930, so the sun set as we ate. Food, wine and views were all stunning. The dinner reservation at Oro was equally impressive with views from our table looking out over the lagoon (at the other side of the hotel to Cips Club). Again, the food (with wine pairing) was sublime. The concierge was fantastic and helped to arrange a boat trip over to Murano and Burano. Honestly, absolutely nothing. If I’m being picky, I just worry that no other hotel will ever measure up to Hotel Cipriani.”
