Venice is undoubtedly the most romantic city in the world, with its narrow streets, the placid flow of gondolas along the canals, the timeless atmosphere full of emotions.
The ideal place for a romantic Valentine’s Day is the Hilton Molino Stucky, located on the fascinating island of Giudecca, in the heart of the Venetian lagoon but off the beaten track, where you can enjoy unique and unusual experiences.
A long Valentine’s weekend at the Hilton Molino Stucky has all the characteristics to be unforgettable. In the building, an ancient mill finely restored and converted into a 5-star hotel, there is the tallest tower in Venice – second only to the bell tower of San Marco – which houses the famous Molino Tower suites, elegant and private. And the top of this tower is reserved for the fabulous Presidential Suite, the highest and largest suite in Venice, an ideal love nest for a truly special stay.
The suite, distributed over two floors, boasts the most evocative panorama of the Serenissima, which can be enjoyed at 360° from the turret or from the comfortable living room whose timeless design has continuous references to the Venetian tradition and the mastery of glass masters, with contemporary objects with suggestive sculptural shapes and decorative details made of precious fabrics.
But the real “gem” of a Valentine’s Day in the Presidential suite is the experience you can enjoy: the suite has a real private spa, in a hushed atmosphere suspended between sky and water. Here the couple can celebrate in perfect privacy not only with a bath in the comfortable jacuzzi, but also with a fitness session and the “Venetian Romanticism” couple treatment to be enjoyed with the most beautiful view at their feet. The treatment, made with special perfumed essential oils, guarantees perfect relaxation, also thanks to the skilled movements of the therapists, who recall the gentle swing of the gondola on the water of the lagoon.
And to crown the perfect day a special Valentine’s Day dinner created by chef Luca Nania, available at the Aromi Restaurant or in suite, which includes, among other things, raw Mazzara del Vallo red shrimp, Siberian Classic caviar, hollandaise sauce passion fruit and ginger and shrimp elixir and ends with a perfect tart with dark chocolate, caramel and red fruits accompanied by Recioto La Collina dei Ciliegi.
Giudecca amazes visitors with real hidden jewels, and the Hilton Molino Stucky advises its romantic guests to visit a special place: with a short walk from the hotel along the warehouse and with a short boat ride you can easily reach the Borges labyrinth, a place that speaks of art, beauty and above all love. A magical place, created by the Giorgio Cini foundation by the will of Borges’ wife Maria Kodama, a botanical labyrinth inspired by the story of the Argentine writer “the garden of forking paths”, one of the most evocative stories of the writer, who developed it just as if it were a mysterious and intricate enigma.
A “literary labyrinth” whose theme is time and whose ultimate meaning is revealed in living it, just like in a great love story. Visitors will be able to get lost in a path that winds through more than 3200 boxwood trees ninety tallcentimeters, with the musical accompaniment of “Walking The Labirinth”, a work composed for the occasion by Antonio Fresa, and performed and recorded with the Orchestra of the Teatro La Fenice.
And after this journey of music and nature you cannot miss a slow and suggestive walk in a gondola or with a private taxi, along the most famous canals of the city, to finish in style with a romantic aperitif at the skyline Bar, admiring the sunset and tasting the cocktail created for the occasion by bartender Gabriele Cusimano and characterized by soft notes of rose and vanilla.
A romantic Valentine’s Day, pampered by the excellence of the Hilton Molino Stucky between relaxation, taste and fun discovering the city of lovers.
Packages are also available for the Molino Deluxe Rooms with a view of Venice, a couple’s massage at the eforea spa, a signature cocktail at the Skyline Rooftop Bar, the special Valentine’s Day dinner at the Aromi Restaurant, and the romantic tour of the Grand Canal by taxi. private.
