Win a magical holiday in one of the world's finest hotels   
Starting this month Times Online Travel has teamed-up with ITC Classics to
give away an out-of-this-world holiday experience. ITC Classics is renowned
for providing the finest luxury holidays for the discerning traveller.
Whisked away by British Airways to the waterways of Venice you and a friend
will be staying in the Cipriani for two nights of decadence. After making
your way to St Mark's Square a private boat will greet you at the edge of
the lagoon for a transfer to your room.

This is no ordinary hotel. It is the most magnificent hotel in Venice, and
arguably the world.

Of course, you will be staying in the 5,000-a-night Palladio Suite,
pictured above, which includes three bathrooms, two bedrooms and a heated
whirlpool bath on its own private sun-terrace. Watch Venice classics on the
giant cinema style projection system in the suite's living room. Or gaze at
the 180 degree view afforded from the windows which takes in St Mark's
Square.

To enter, answer the following question and submit your entry on the link
below:

Venice, in their words. But who are these characters?

1. "Streets flooded. Please advise."
2. "This was Venice, the flattering and suspect beauty."
3. "Many a time and oft, in the Rialto you have rated me."
