    Giudecca, 10, 30133 Venice  Tel: 39 041 5207744
    E-mail: info@hotelcipriani.it www.hotelcipriani.com

    Decadent and iconic, the Cipriani is Venice to many travelers. Located on the island of Giudecca, a five-minute boat ride from San Marco, the property sports some of the city's best facilities, including lush gardens and a huge salt-water pool. A Bellini pre-dinner is a must—after all, Mr. Cipriani reportedly invented the cocktail. -reviewed by Indagare Travel, Inc.

    Even if you're not staying here, a lunch or cocktail at the Sala del Ridotto, painstakingly restored to Baroque grandeur, with ceiling frescoes, marble columns and mosaic floors, is a must. The Benetton Group bought this classic property, as well as an adjacent 17th-century palazzo, in 1992 and linked the two in a lengthy renovation that was completed in 2003. -reviewed by Indagare Travel, Inc.

    One of the last family-owned hotels in Venice, the Palazzo is a quintessentially Venetian property (even the bedside lamps have Murano-glass bases and traditional paper shades). The setting helps: it's located in a gorgeous 18th-century mansion on the Grand Canal, facing Giudecca, the Santa Maria della Salute church and the new Punta Della Dogna Museum of Contemporary Art. -reviewed by Indagare Travel, Inc.

    San Clemente Palace

    This palace hotel, housed in a former 17th-century monastery overlooking the Giudecca, competes with the Cipriani for the city's best pool. The setting—a private seventeen-acre island lush with landscaped gardens— makes it feel like you are staying in a resort, one of the reasons the Clemente is popular with families. -reviewed by Indagare Travel, Inc.
