The Restaurant

Designed by Peter Marino

Unveiling a new chapter at our restaurant, celebrated New York architect Peter Marino has re-interpreted the interiors of our restaurant by blending La Dolce Vita spirit with the glamour of the 50s and 60s Art Biennales.

At ORO, he’s captured the spirit of Venice – its romance, beauty and connection to the sea. Bordering the edge of the water, the view from your table is a gentle lagoon scene with unmissable vistas ignited by the evening’s changing light. The dining experience crafted by Chef Vania Ghedini reaches new heights.

Set on Giudecca Island, South of Venice, Hotel Cipriani and the restaurant ORO are only a short boat ride to St. Mark’s Square.
