The hotel also has a spa that offers Asian-inspired treatments, a fitness center, a full-service business center and 24-hour room service. Dining options at the hotel are limited, but that didn't seem to bother guests with the bevy of restaurants nearby.  If you do decide to dine in, Ristorante Cadorin & Lounge Bar serves Italian dishes alongside striking Venetian frescoes, though the breakfast received mixed reviews.
