The verdict

Aman Venice is the one with Michelin's top rating and the fewest rooms. Three Michelin Keys, 24 rooms in a palazzo on the Grand Canal in San Polo, and Arva for dinner — about 1.4 miles on foot from the Marittima check-in by our routing.

Nobody walks that with luggage, and you won't have to — Michelin's listing says Aman staff meet guests and bring them in by canal, and the same boat is your likely ride out, so ask what it costs.

No prices, breakfast terms or parking appear on the listing we read, which is normal at this level and means a phone call before you book.

Book it if the night before is the trip's high point, and have the hotel quote the boat to Marittima.

Book it if

  • You want Michelin's top rating for the night before
  • You'd rather have 24 rooms than 200
  • You'll let the hotel run the boats

Look elsewhere if

  • You need prices you can see before you call.
  • You want the ship a short walk away.
  • You're driving in.
