Frommer's "There are few other places in Venice -- the only one that comes to mind is the Cipriani next door -- where you can relax as completely as you can here and yet quickly be in the midst of it all." Full review
Concierge "Spacious and tranquil... best features are the ground-floor spa, with its extensive range of Daniela Steiner beauty treatments, and the pretty garden with pool."

Be sure to make use of the saunas, Turkish hammam, and a roster of treatments that use Daniela Steiner products.
