Aman Venice

Venice, Italy

• No.14 The World's 50 Best Hotels 2023

The City of Canals may be no stranger to a legendary hotel, but this Aman property is one of its best. Inside the renovated 16th-century Palazzo Papadopoli, which is still owned by Venetian aristocrats Gilberto and Bianca Arrivabene (who still live above the hotel), it’s a masterful blend of resplendent Italian chic with the pared-back, slick aesthetic upon which the Aman group has built its international reputation. Frescoes, Murano chandeliers and Rubelli silk wall coverings: Aman Venice ticks them all off. The hotel’s location in the San Polo district offers a break from the crowds and noise of San Marco without veering out of walking distance of the city centre. With just 24 rooms, almost all of which enjoy views of the Grand Canal, the hotel delivers all the benefits of a boutique hotel experience – serenity and bespoke hospitality, including private arrivals by boat – with the resources of an international hotel chain. For the ultimate experience, opt for the Alcova Tiepolo suite, complete with breath-taking ceiling frescoes painted by 18th-century Venetian painter Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.
