Honestly, Venice is overrated and over touristed (is that a word?). Though after looking through the pictures the vibe looks like I imagine a top level hotel in the 19th century being like, not only indoors but especially with the courtyard and location on an island. Though to spring 2k per night I would need some special occurrence justify it.
Cool. Always nice to have more options, especially in Venice. Better to stay rather than day-trip. I know Ben really likes this brand, too.
I'm excited about this hotel, but I don't know if I'd call it the best in Venice yet. Aman Venice and Belmond Hotel Cipriani are pretty impressive. Four Seasons has also taken over Hotel Danieli and will reopen it in August.
Venice is overrated as others said. Way too crowded. The food is so overpriced and definitely some of the worst in Italy.
It's worth going to once, but on other trips I've enjoyed nearby Padova, Verona, and Vicenza more. The latter is especially incredible for any architecture fan, even more Palladio than Venice.
