Hotel Description:
Just along the waterfront from St Mark's Square, where the Grand Canal meets the Lagoon, let
your gondola glide to the landing stage of the wonderful Metropole Hotel. On the site of an
orphanage church where Vivaldi once composed and performed, stands this beautiful, baroque
hotel replete with gilded chandeliers, clocks, mirrors and bronze cherubs. A friendly,
family-run hotel, the Metropole is like a museum of rare artefacts, boasting an eclectic
collection of musical instruments, fans, corkscrews and Italy's largest collection of
crucifixes.
