Venus, it takes 243 Earth days to complete a single rotation. It also spins opposite most of the other planets in a retrograde motion (clockwise if you're staring down on it from the north pole). With as slowly as it spins usually it will complete a year in 224.7 Earth days before it spins a single time. This means that most places on Venus get sunlight for 116.75 Earth days. With the crushing atmosphere the light itself makes little difference though; even the night side has temperatures of over 800 degrees F.

Venus is the planet that rotates slowest on its axis. It takes Venus longer to rotate on its axis than it takes the planet to orbit around the Sun.
