The legend of Belmond

Arriving by the hotel’s motorboat, enjoying the view over the lagoon, spending a relaxed afternoon at the Olympic-sized pool, having a Bellini served on a silver tray – the dolce vita doesn’t get much better than this. Here, every moment, every detail, not to mention the 270-degree panoramic vista from the Doge’s Palace to the Church of San Giorgio, radiates Italian joie de vivre. The décor, with its valuable antiques and beautiful local handcrafts, lends the legendary Hotel Cipriani a unique ambiance. It also tempts you to enjoy an irresistible cocktail in the "Oro" Michelin-starred restaurant with the city of Venice as your backdrop. The exclusive oasis in the lagoon city was the birthplace of the Belmond Group and remains the luxury tour operator’s flagship hotel.
