The 5-star Metropole Hotel with a magnificent view over the Venetian lagoon. It boasts a unique atmosphere with dark interiors and quirky details, including a collection of eccentric curiosities, enhanced with the hotel’s signature scent. The service is attentive, with little details that speak of great attention to guests, like the early morning coffee service for those departing at the crack of dawn.
There’s a lovely garden filled with citrus trees where guests can relax with a drink from the Oriental Bar, an atmospheric venue that often hosts live DJ sets. Come evening, the Met Restaurant is a fine-dining venue listed in the Michelin guide, serving gourmet dishes that pay particular attention to raw ingredients and seasonality, paired with the fine wines from the hotel’s well-stocked cellar. The hotel hosts also a tea ceremony from October to March, in collaboration with the prestigious tea company Dammann Freres.
