we stayed at the metropole january 2008 for 5 nights
before moving onto Patong.
We found the staff very obliging and friendly the hotel came across as a 3 star hotel a little dated needs a steady refurb, a shame because the hotel has had capabilities to being a leading hotel in Phuket town for years to come, providing it keeps up its standards.
The buffet breakfasts had plenty of choice and to us were very good,we had a few evening buffets of which we found very value and a wide choice of product especially for me as I like thai food.
The swimming pool was pleasant and clean very refreshing on a hot day.
The gym was a little sparse in equipment could have been better.
The hotel was in a great position to explore Phuket town and this we did,the prices here are a lot better than Patong and other resorts,the markets are better too,we found the people here to be very obliging enjoyed our stay.
I would definately stay here again.

| "Cockroaches in this Hotel - Don't stay!
1. Paid for a deluxe room, got one on the 16th floor (1601) Huge room & bathroom but only about 9 channels on tv (no English). Found cockroaches in bed manage to catch 2 & brought them to reception. They moved us to the 12th floor.
2. 12th floor (1201) same room but fridge wasn't working. More channels on tv but only American news so moved us to 5th floor.
3. 5th floor (501) is not a deluxe room (had less furniture, torn carpet, no cover on smoke alarm but had English movie channels).
4. Saw cockroaches crawling on breakfast buffet so never ate breakfast at hotel again even though paid for it already.
I left my table at breakfast to get more tea and came back to find a cockroach floating in my milk!
5. Room is very very dark - not enough lights. Windows are tinted, makes it even darker.
6. Pool very basic, no staff on duty the whole 4 hours i was in the pool - unsafe for children." |
