Overlooking the Venetian lagoon, the Metropole is a superbly situated luxury hotel with stunning views out to the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore. Dating back to the 16th century, the former palace is a fusion of the city's rich past and opulent styles of the Orient from its days as a trading capital. Offering a citrus garden for al fresco breakfasts in the summer and a renowned restaurant and cocktail bar where former guests included Sigmund Freud and Thomas Mann, this stylish boutique hotel showcases Venetian luxury at its finest.
