ICON
The iconic Belmond Hotel Cipriani is as enchanting as its many famous guests. In 1956, Giuseppe Cipriani dreamt of creating a haven close to St Mark’s Square, yet away from the city bustle. Today, exquisite interior touches pay homage to its heritage, while Michelin-starred gastronomy, charming staff and the only Olympic-sized swimming pool in the city set this celebrated property apart.

Inspired by a belief that good design defines authentic experiences, all of the individual properties within Belmond’s global portfolio – from Belmond Eagle Island Lodge in Botswana to Belmond Cap Juluca in Anguilla – encapsulate the essence, culture and local materials of their magnificent locations.
