Hilton Molino Stucky is the resort night, and the logistics are all water. It's on Giudecca, about 1.0 km from Marittima across the Giudecca Canal as the crow flies, and with no bridge between them, sail morning starts on a boat.
Hilton's own shuttle boat runs from Piazza San Marco, not to the ship, so you'll book a water taxi to the terminal.
What you get for the trouble is a seasonal rooftop pool, the eforea Spa and five places to eat and drink, from Aromi to the Skyline Rooftop Bar.
Book it as a treat the night before, and price the water taxi before you call the room a deal.
Book it if
- The night before is the celebration
- You want a rooftop pool in season
- You don't mind starting sail day on a boat
Look elsewhere if
- You need a road to the door.
- You'd rather not pay for a water taxi to the ship.
- You're sailing out of season and want the pool.
Your night before, from here
From check-in to the gangway, using only what Molino Stucky publishes.
A seasonal rooftop pool, the eforea Spa, Aromi, Bacaromi, the Rialto Bar & Restaurant and the Skyline Rooftop Bar.
Hilton runs a private shuttle boat from Piazza San Marco, not to the ship — book a water taxi to Marittima for the morning.
Breakfast is at Il Molino; Hilton doesn't say whether it's in your rate.
Hilton gives no distance to the cruise terminal. Marittima is about 1.0 km across the Giudecca Canal as the crow flies, by our measurement — there's no bridge, so it's a boat ride, not a walk. Book the boat for your check-in time, not before it.
The pages we read don't mention parking; Giudecca has no road to the mainland.
