HOTEL CIPRIANI’S STORY BEGAN IN THE 1950s when Giuseppe Cipriani, founder of the famous Harry’s Bar, decided to buy land on Giudecca Island to create a haven that would delight even his most demanding guests.

It opened in 1958 and was an instant success, attracting luminaries from the worlds of entertainment, politics and culture. In 1972, weekly magazine Il Mondo captured the essence of the property, saying: “Hotel Cipriani needs no introduction. Anyone who knows Venice knows that this is the hotel par excellence”.

Living up to its legendary allure is Bar Gabbiano, an iconic meeting place at the heart of the hotel. Thanks to its timeless atmosphere and stunning location, it is coveted destination for both local and internaional visitors. They come to savour an array of cocktails, wines and appetisers while drinking in the breathtaking views of the lagoon and San Giorgio Island.
