Sophisticated opulence
Located on the lagoon waterfront with views across to the Isola di San Giorgio Maggiore, the Metropole Hotel is within a few steps of the Piazza San Marco. The Basilica, the Doge’s Palace and a host of delightful cafés and restaurants fill this historic area. The Teatro La Fenice, Palazzo Grassi, and many historic churches are all within easy walking distance of the Metropole Hotel.
This delightful family-owned luxury hotel in Venice’s most coveted location has recently been renovated to a high standard. Filled with the owner’s eclectic collection of antiques and objets d’art, each corridor is filled with interesting and unique treasures. The collection of 19th century antique table clocks in embossed bronze and marble are just some of the unique treasures to be enjoyed by guests.
The Metropole Hotel is a delightful place to relax at the end of a hard day’s sightseeing in Venice. The welcoming foyer has oriental rugs covering the beautiful tiled floor and elegant sofas and chaises-longues to recline upon. The 70 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites are all individually filled with gorgeous antique furnishings including gold-trimmed rococo-style headboards in some rooms and canopied beds in others. Rooms look out over the lagoon, or onto the quieter courtyard gardens and some have private terraces on which to enjoy an intimate dinner. No wonder this gracious luxury hotel is favoured by celebrity guests and aristocracy. Known for its five star service by discreet, professional staff, the Metropole leaves no stone unturned in anticipating guests’ every need.
The Michelin starred MET restaurant certainly gets an A+ for its gastronomic delights, under renowned chef, Corrado Fasolato. The more informal Courtyard Citrus Garden restaurant is in a delightful setting among the palms and sweet-smelling jasmine. Cocktails and snacks can also be enjoyed in the Zodiac Oriental Bar. Browse for souvenirs in the Metropole boutique or enjoy an in-room massage. Like many luxury hotels in Venice, the Metropole does not have its own fitness centre, but guests are welcome to use the nearby Wellness Centre Gym, just a few steps down the road.
For those who want that extra special luxury hotel in Venice, the Metropole offers exceptional standards of accommodation and service, right on the Lagoon.
