HILTON MOLINO STUCKY CELEBRATES CINEMA IN STYLE
This year, from 27 August to 6 September 2025, the world’s eyes will once again turn to La Serenissima for the Venice International Film Festival. Amid the glamour, one address makes headlines: Hilton Molino Stucky Venice.
Every year, as August melts into September, Venice undergoes its most dazzling transformation. The lagoon city rolls out its red carpet, attracting filmmakers, stars, and cinephiles from across the globe. This year, Hilton Molino Stucky is going all out, offering a carefully curated program of spa indulgences, rooftop cocktails, moonlit movie nights, and star-worthy suites designed to capture the essence of Venetian luxury.
RED CARPET READY AT THE EFOREA SPA
For film festival season, beauty meets performance at the eforea Spa, one of only two in Italy. Designed to pamper stars and filmgoers alike, the exclusive Movie-Star Spa Menu is all about preparing guests for the flash of paparazzi cameras—or simply for an unforgettable evening in Venice.
Highlights include the Glow and Tone treatment (75 min, €140), an indulgent face and body ritual blending spirulina algae and marine minerals. The treatment smooths and brightens skin, leaving a luminous finish worthy of any Hollywood close-up.
For those looking to shed the tension of long flights or crowded screenings, the Deep Body Stress Relief Massage (50 min, €100) offers full-body rejuvenation with bergamot essential oil, a blissful escape that combines detoxifying techniques with stress relief. It’s the kind of luxury that ensures festival guests step into the spotlight looking refreshed and radiant.
A GOLDEN TOAST AT THE SKYLINE ROOFTOP BAR
Once suitably polished and preened, the action shifts skyward to the Skyline Rooftop Bar, recently refreshed with interiors inspired by the vibrant hues of the Venetian lagoon. Perched high above the city, this is not only the tallest bar in Venice but also one of the most atmospheric.
During festival week, the star of the cocktail menu is the Golden Lion’s Grove (€23). Inspired by the glittering Leone d’Oro award, the drink combines Wild Turkey Rye, Campari, grapefruit juice, and maple caramel. Bold, bitter, and cinematic, it’s a toast to the city’s enduring love affair with cinema. With panoramic views that stretch from the domes of San Marco to the islands beyond, the Skyline Bar promises one of the hottest tables in town—an essential stop for festival-goers chasing both glamour and authenticity.
CINEMA UNDER THE STARS
On Saturday, 6 September 2025, Hilton Molino Stucky will host a truly magical evening: Cinema Dinner Night on the Rooftop Terrace. With just 30 seats available, exclusivity is key. Guests will enjoy a three-course menu crafted by Executive Chef Ivan Fargnoli, paired with fine wines, before donning headphones for a silent-disco style screening beneath the Venetian night sky.
The feature presentation is Nomadland (2020), Chloé Zhao’s acclaimed drama that won the Golden Lion in 2020. Against the backdrop of the Molino Tower, with Venice shimmering below, it promises to be an unforgettable cultural moment. Priced at €150 per person, this one-night-only event is set to be a highlight of the festival season.
SUITES THAT STEAL THE SHOW
When the credits roll, festival guests can retreat to Hilton Molino Stucky’s remarkable accommodations, each suite more glamorous than the next.
For ultimate seclusion, the Presidential Suite (from €6,500 per night) is unrivalled. Designed by Biagio Forino, it sprawls over two floors with private elevator access, a Jacuzzi, gym, and bespoke Murano glass accents. With private access to the hotel’s tower—the second highest point in Venice—it offers panoramic views that even the most seasoned movie star would find breathtaking.
Equally atmospheric are the Tower Molino Suites (from €1,200 per night), housed in the property’s original 19th-century mill tower. These suites fuse heritage with modern elegance, complete with executive lounge access and a commanding perspective of the Venetian skyline.
Meanwhile, the Executive Suites (from €850 per night), unveiled in 2024, pay homage to the lagoon with Venetian-inspired palettes, exposed beams, and Fortuny chandeliers. They strike the perfect balance between history and contemporary luxury, making them an ideal base for festival explorers.
A LEGACY OF GRANDEUR
Hilton Molino Stucky is more than a hotel—it’s a Venetian institution. With 379 rooms and suites, an award-winning conference centre, a collection of bars and restaurants, and one of the largest spas in the city, the property embodies the grandeur of Venice itself. Guests arrive by water taxi and are instantly immersed in a world that marries history with modern indulgence.
Nightly rates begin at €240 per room with breakfast included, while Molino Suites start at €590. Whether you’re a seasoned film buff or a first-time visitor, Hilton Molino Stucky Venice ensures every guest can experience a touch of cinematic magic.
As Venice prepares to dazzle the world once more, Hilton Molino Stucky stands ready to host the stars—and those who wish to live like them, if only for a few nights.
