Hotel Cipriani is the highest-rated hotel on this page, and you can't book it for a sailing before June 2027. Belmond's own page says the hotel is closed and reopens on June 1, 2027; Cip's Club, the restaurant, stays open until October 25.
Michelin gives it three Keys and Forbes rates it Five-Star. Michelin's listing still describes an April-to-September season, so trust Belmond's date over it.
When it opens you get 67 rooms at the tip of Giudecca, an outdoor saltwater pool heated in spring and autumn, a spa, and Oro, a Michelin-starred restaurant.
It's about 2.4 km from Marittima as the crow flies, by our measurement, with no bridge in between, and the private launch runs "until the last guest has checked in", per Michelin. Ask whether it'll take you to the ship.
Sailing before June 2027? Book the Aman or the Gritti instead, and keep the Cipriani for a summer 2027 trip.
Book it if
- You sail in June 2027 or later
- You want a pool and a starred dinner the night before
- You'll take the hotel's launch
Look elsewhere if
- You sail before June 1, 2027 — it's closed.
- You want to walk to the ship.
- You need prices online.
What Hotel Cipriani offers, and what it leaves out
What the Cipriani gives you when it's open, as Michelin lists it: green is there, gold costs extra or has a catch, grey nobody says.
Your night before, from here
A Cipriani night before the ship, once it reopens in June 2027.
Oro, a Michelin-starred restaurant, and Cip's Club, with an outdoor pool heated in spring and autumn and a spa with Turkish bath and sauna.
Ask the desk whether the launch can take you to Marittima, and book it.
