Hilton Molino Stucky Venice Appoints Valentina Mircea as First Female Bar Manager for Skyline Rooftop Bar

June 2024…// Hilton Molino Stucky Venice, the five-star hotel and former flour mill on Giudecca island, is delighted to announce the appointment of Valentina Mircea as Bar Manager at its iconic Skyline Rooftop Bar.

Valentina, an award-winning hospitality professional, is the first female bar manager for Skyline Rooftop Bar, and one of the few across the city of Venice. Fondly dubbed the ‘Sky Queen’ of Skyline bar, she brings with her many years of experience, having been with Hilton since the age of just 19. Valentina has introduced a brand-new cocktail menu with her dedicated team at Skyline Rooftop Bar, which celebrates the timeless spirit of Venice featuring sustainable and repurposed elements in every cocktail in an effort to reduce waste whilst still offering delicious innovative cocktails.

The talented team at Skyline Rooftop Bar is committed to a sustainable mixology method spearheaded by Valentina and educating patrons that each cocktail is created especially breathing new life into used ingredients that would otherwise be discarded. This includes the new tangy tropical fruit cocktail Umami, which features refreshing mango foam and mango juice from the whole fruit to ensure nothing is wasted. By incorporating both the pulp and the juice of the entire mango, the full elixir of the fruit is extracted for a vibrant and bright mixture blended with oriental spices creating a taste that transports guests to the tropics.

A truly immersive experience, the menu features a QR code to allow guests to watch the mixology team create their cocktail virtually before it is served to them. The interactive new menu provides guests the opportunity to learn more about each cocktail and to experience backstage behind the bar as patrons select their tipple of choice.

Stand-out beverages from the new menu include Stucky Bloom, a twist on the iconic Gimlet evoking the botanical wonders of the city using the hotel’s own Stucky 1985- Venice Gardens Gin. Guests can choose an underlining savoury or sweet taste by choosing a garnish to accompany the Stucky Bloom, where the earthy essence of dehydrated artichoke mingles with the fragrant notes of chamomile. A powerful and exotic blend of Martell, pineapple and coconut, The Golden Serenissima is adorned with edible pineapple gold sand to create a perfect fusion of Venice meets the Far East. One of Valentina’s personal creations is the Negroni Delight, a new take on the classic Italian beverage that distils the essence of Venice at night with elegant Mediterranean fragrances of juniper, house vermouth, savoury Salicornia finished with sparkling Campari pearls. This tipple includes a repurposed house Vermouth – one of the key ingredients of the new Negroni Delight – crafted using recycled flat champagne and prosecco.

The rooftop bar at Hilton Molino Stucky Venice is a true Venice institution and is the highest bar in the city, loved by hotel guests and locals alike. With awe-inspiring views across the city of canals and the lagoon below, there’s nowhere quite like Skyline to kick back and watch the sunset, aperitivo in hand.

Born in Romania and trained in London, Valentina Mircea is an award-winning bar manager with over six years of experience working with Hilton. She began her career in hospitality at London’s iconic Hilton Park Lane, where she was Conference and Events Manager, and joins Hilton Molino Stucky Venice following several years as Destination Bar Manager at DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton.

Nightly rates at Hilton Molino Stucky Venice begin at 240 per night based on double occupancy with breakfast included. Molino Suites start from 590 per night. For more information or to book visit https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/vcehihi-hilton-molino-stucky-venice/
