Mandarin Oriental to manage San Clemente Palace in Venice
Mandarin Oriental is taking over management of the San Clemente Palace Hotel in Venice.
The property, located on a private, 12-acre island in the Venice lagoon, has undergone several reflags in recent years, previously operating as the St. Regis Venice San Clemente Palace and San Clemente Palace Kempinski Venice.
Mandarin Oriental said it will operate the seasonal property as the San Clemente Palace Venice through this November, when it will close for a comprehensive three-phase renovation. The hotel will reopen in April under the Mandarin Oriental brand.
The revamped hotel will feature 136 rooms, four dining venues and a spa with multiple treatment rooms, a Finnish sauna and a steam bath. Other amenities will include an outdoor pool, courts for tennis and paddle sports and a yoga pavilion.
The property will mark Mandarin Oriental's third in Italy, joining the luxury brand's Milan and Lake Como locations. The company has additional developments planned for Rome, Cortina and Porto Cervo.
