Eccentrics, eclectics, and fans of Antonio Vivaldi (who taught music here) love the Metropole, a labyrinth of unusual spaces furnished with antiques and jammed with cabinets displaying some very unusual collections indeed. The owner, a lifelong collector of odd objects, displays enough antiques to fill a dealer's shop -- some of which furnish the beautifully appointed rooms. The best rooms here are up in the roof -- two with spacious roof-top terraces -- but only 6 of the standard double rooms offer lagoon views.
