Don’t be put off by the external appearance!
The external appearance is very dated. However inside it is charming. Lots of original features particularly in the library and games rooms upstairs. The inside courtyard area has a charm of its own. Our room was an internal room with no external air (windows opened into internal courtyard) and so we asked for a room with external windows which we could move to. Essential given the area was experiencing a heat wave!
Breakfast excellent and plentiful.

Staff were helpful
There was nowhere to hang clothes and no choice provided for bedding, I was too hot.! No facilities to dispose of sanitary items for women
TV in one of rooms didn't work I would have liked a bedside lamp.

Good location and property is dated but has a fine aesthetic. Room was a bit short of the “royal room” experience advertised. Lumpy uncomfortable split bed and single ply public toilet paper. Never asked about our stay on check out. Shared billiard room and library were a fine feature.

Great Location - Even Better Breakfast
This is a historic hotel nicely situated in Katoomba. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel has good off-street car parking. The best thing about the Metropole was the cooked breakfast. The chef on Monday to Friday cooks to your order. Great food with great service. Overall, a good value for money stay.

Incredible service and staff, lovely property. I mentioned that it was my partners birthday and asked for a note to be written. They did that a more! A cake and a bottle of wine! Lovely place and even better service

Although the hotel doesn't look that much from the street it is full of historic charm inside. Thoughtfully and nicely restored this gem in the Blue Mountains town of Katoomba, NSW was a delightful surprise. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The single room, although tiny, was immaculate. The newly remodeled bathroom was modern with a large walk-in shower.
The buffet style breakfast available at an extra charge was well stocked and quite adequate to set you up for day's exploring.
Well situated in the heart of town and a 3 minute walk from the train station, the Metropole is an excellent choice.

The building and inside are very beautiful, loved the old world style and feel my only suggestion would be to update the bed, you could feel the springs and it was very hard. The breakfast was amazing and the staff were lovely

The staff were pretty great; the breakfast was worth the charge: tasty, quick, and great service. Biggest complaint was the room: the hot water tap didn't work in the sink and when told the front desk shrugged it off blaming someone for sealing it but not willing to give us a change of room.

The place was clean and tidy. I booked 2 rooms about 3 months back and we were allocated on the ground and second floor, I asked if we could have adjacent rooms and was told that all the other rooms were booked inspite of the vacancy sign being displayed. The games room was leaking due to the rain.

I liked the library, numerous cosy parlours, location & the lift (we stayed on the 3rd floor & it was a relief not having to carry the luggage).
I did not like the room although my brother was allocated a far nice room. I detested the car park. It was a battle to get in & out & if you don't get a park prepare to park on Lurline St & walk a long distance. Would I stay here again...probably not....but happy to have stayed because our parents honeymooned at this location in the 50's

Quirky older building in great location - very close to centre of town and train station. A bit noisy and dated due to older building but otherwise very comfortable.

Old world charm in a convenient location meets modern accommodation and friendly service.
Great value for a room with ensuite near the town centre with a full cooked breakfast available downstairs.
