"Get away from Venice's bustle at this intimate hotel" on Giudecca Island, a short gondola ride from St. Mark's Square. "Spacious rooms" have walls painted pastel or hung with damask. Fortuny serves pasta on a garden terrace with an antique fountain. While "spa treatments are outstanding," the "facilities are small and not as elegant as the rest of the hotel." Staff "never left us wanting."
