The clip was filmed during my stay in October 2015, when the hotel was still managed by St Regis. Since then, Kempinski Hotels took over the management of this famous Palace in the Venice lagoon and the hotel will reopen on March 24, 2016 as San Clemente Palace Kempinski.

Most valuable channel I've found on RU-vid. Thank you, and please don't listen to the plebes who say, play Vivaldi. Your choice of tranquil sounds adds a lot to the vids. Vivaldi is played on every street corner of Venice because of the pre-packaged tastes of tourists, who generally don't know any better.

I would suggest it is one of the best in Venice , its position does not give you the hustle and bustle of tbe Grand Canal , but that is also its bonus you can enjoy Venice and then retreat , teurning at night to the City when the hoardes have mostly gone and enjoy . One of the few places in Venice with a decent size pool , the building itself is interesting along with the grounds where you can find peace an quiet , for me an exapnsion of the catering would help . If you can go then do so , ultimately if you can pay for a Canal side view its excellent .

Well, the glass chandeliers are absolutely fabulous! Lovely hotel. 🥰

This may be not the best hotel in Venice but it looks more spacious than most of the luxury hotels in the heart of the city. It's also removed from the crowds of cruise ship tourists which can be quite irritating.

Great place, was there in 2009, stayed at the junior suite, too. I‘ve never been in a hotel with such high ceilings. It‘s amazing but hard to get on camera.

Thank you for a useful video , can you tell me if this was filmed after the hotel was sold to Kenpimski and refurbished as the entrance shot shows St Regis branding on the floor of the doorway ?I was interested to know if the breakfast offering was the St Regis offering or the new owners , someone on trip advisor recently noted there was nothing complimentary but for example in the buffet shots they are clearly offering Prosecco at breakfast , which is what one would expect for this sort of hotel .

@maryzweck8656 3 года назад

Some say the Gritti others the Aman , but I say the San Clemente Palace for the most beautiful and unforgettable hotel in Venice.

@drbertamariahines6542 4 года назад

I love sitting in beautiful chapels and cathedrals when there is no mass, it’s just the Divine Creator, the Archangels, Angels and ME communicating. During the hot summer months with their marble floors, these sanctuaries are the perfect place to rest and cool off.

I wonder if Genoa looks half as spectacular and steeped in history as Venice is.

@pmb9172 7 лет назад

Follow up , its ok I just read your review and answered my own questions its a St Regis offering , it sounds from TA that the offering all round is reduced and I read a recent German comment who they charged 400 euros for a Tbone steak that despite sending it back twice they failed to cook as requested . 18 Euros for two coffees whilst the guests waited because their rooms were not ready . 6 euros for a packet of crisps , poolside bar one fish dish , one small steak and water 100 euros.

@pmb9172 7 лет назад

from memory ,for clarity, I should add the tbone was a 2kg piece for four people

Which international travelers expect, demand or command their own culture and traditions to be present in other parts of the globe 🌍, when they stay in a hotel?

While I really enjoy your videos and I realize my comment will probably fall on deaf ears (no pun intended) you guys really need to find someone that can add a better music soundtrack to your videos! As another poster pointed out, the music of the 18th century Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi would have been most appropriate and much more fitting for the visuals. It's almost like you guys search for the most monotonous music you can find!

@luxurytravelexpert 8 лет назад

+southpond I agree it may not be the best soundtrack (nor was it the best hotel :-). I do my best finding appropriate music, but it is not always easy. Thx for your input!

@aerotravelerNL 8 лет назад

+the Luxury Travel Expert The video gives a good impression of the hotel though.

@southpond 8 лет назад

+the Luxury Travel Expert sure thing. I want to be clear that I'm trying to provide constructive input. In any video, the soundtrack can make or break the production (think of many of the great films out there that are as memorable for their soundtrack as the actual plot). When the music is bad, it is hard to watch all the way to the end. In any case, maybe you could find someone that is willing to help you out in this area. One tip: use music from the region in which the hotel is located.

@Annick080 8 лет назад

+southpond your comments are so patronizing and ridiculous. You were answered yet you kept on going. Where is your channel? Could I see where you work and critique you?

@dariagreer8786 7 лет назад

my comment is , as a"" born venetian, St. Clement was psychiatric Institution with a horrible treatment of patients, not one was allowed out of this Psychiatric Hospital until they died. A very horrible story
