Picolo recommends · Hotel in Venice, Italy
Hilton Molino Stucky Venice
A swim on the roof of an old flour mill, with the whole of Venice laid out across the water and the sun going down behind Dorsoduro.
The pool sits on the roof, which is a rare thing in Venice, and the view takes in the whole city across the Giudecca Canal. Next to it, the Skyline Bar fills up as the sun sets behind Dorsoduro.
Below, the hotel occupies a huge red-brick flour mill at the western end of Giudecca. A hotel shuttle boat runs from the jetty to St Mark's and the Zattere, so you can arrive and leave without dragging a case over a single bridge.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Hilton Molino Stucky Venice
This is our pick for families and for anyone who needs room to breathe. Rooms are large and modern, breakfast is plentiful, and after a day in the crowds a pool and a quiet island make a real difference.
Every outing means a boat ride, and evenings in the city depend on the shuttle timetable. You visit Venice from here rather than live in it, so if you want to walk out of the door into the lanes, choose another hotel.
