Fine but did not feel worth the cost.
Pros:

Staff and breakfast were good.

Cons:

The hotel didn't feel at all secure with our room on the main floor and little staff around at night to prevent someone from taking the elevator up and being outside our door. I also felt the price was way too high for the room's cleanliness, decor, etc. In comparison to other others we discovered once there, it was very overpriced and not as nice.

Perfect stay, so glad we returned
Pros:

First, we would love to give a huge shout out to Venessa at the front desk. Family and I, arrived on the island and we had 4 night reservation for another hotel. Long story short, after first one night we had to leave! I showed up at Venessa's desk telling her the story and in no time (hotel close to fully booked-summer break!), She found us a 2 queen room, got us an early complimentary check in (we've stayed at Metropole numberous time), but offered us a champagne in the room. What a hospitality! We did not expect this type of compation and problem solving, a true representative of Hotel Metropole.
Now the pros:
Location is amazing, navigation around the hotel or around it is perfect, close to everything, especially the breakfast shop on presmises and of course customer service. The room was exceptionally clean, I saw the service ladies actually mopping the floors after vacancy of other rooms.
cons: second floor rooms overlooking the courtyard, get loud because of the shops. If you want to sleep in passed 9am, it's not happening...at least when we stayed there which was June 9-12, 2026.

Perfect service, the best location.
Pros:

PERFECT location. Simple yet classy rooms. Loved the fire place and high end bathroom amenities. Received great service throughout. They provided a complimentary upgrade so I could check in early in order to settle in prior to scuba diving. Icing on the cake was me forgetting my gopro battery on the nightstand and with one phone call they're quick and pleasing response that they'd mail it to me that day and only charge me for the postage. The speed and efficiency and thoroughness of the service was exemplary. Will definitely be back with my family. Thank you Hotel Metropole!

Nice Place. Perfect Location.
Pros:

Great location! In the middle of town which makes it quick and easy to get almost anywhere without needing a car or golf cart. Right next to a great little coffee shop which was super convenient in the mornings. Rooms were nice and clean.

Cons:

Had an incident with pounding a screaming next door—asked the person pounding on the door to stop or go to the front desk. She said her friend was drunk inside and ignored me and kept screaming g and pounding—contacted the front desk to ask for security to come and I was told “I’m security and we don’t deal with drunk people.”

Cons:

Breakfast, see above.
