This prestigious establishment, boasting an impressive 8.8 rating from satisfied guests, offers an unparalleled Venetian experience that masterfully combines historical grandeur with contemporary elegance. Located at Isola Di San Clemente 1, this exceptional property sits on the historic San Clemente Island, just minutes away from St. Mark’s Square and Venice’s bustling center. The journey to the hotel itself becomes part of the experience as guests are transported across the lagoon’s shimmering waters by the hotel’s complimentary private boat service, offering breathtaking views of Venice’s iconic skyline and setting the stage for a truly remarkable stay.

The San Clemente Palace Kempinski occupies a former monastery dating back to the 12th century, expertly restored to preserve its architectural heritage while introducing modern luxury amenities.

From the moment of arrival, guests are enveloped in an atmosphere of refined elegance, with the historic cloister, church, and courtyards serving as stunning backdrops to a truly memorable Venetian sojourn.

The San Clemente Palace Kempinski Venice transcends the typical hotel experience by offering a destination unto itself. While Venice’s enchanting canals, historical architecture, and artistic masterpieces await just minutes away by boat, many guests find themselves equally captivated by the island’s own charms. The property features multiple dining options ranging from casual al fresco venues to sophisticated fine dining restaurants, all showcasing exceptional Mediterranean cuisine and spectacular lagoon views. The wellness facilities include a heated outdoor pool—another rarity in Venice—along with a fitness center and spa treatments that incorporate Venetian traditions and ingredients. For the discerning traveler seeking an authentic yet elevated Venetian experience, the San Clemente Palace Kempinski represents the pinnacle of hospitality in this legendary city.

  Third visit and amazing as always !!

• Nikki from Monaco – 14 October 2024 (9/10)

  The staff was very kind, we were upgraded which was lovely and they were super helpful when we asked them for assistance booking activities and restaurants.
  
  What could be improved: There weren't too many options for Vegan's at the breakfast so I was a bit limited. Otherwise it was very nice, and my partner (who isn't vegan) had a lot of choice.
