Very lovely staff in the bar and upstairs. Comfy beds, clean bathrooms and reasonably well sound-proofed (though I was glad of my earplugs all the same).
Thanks Metropolitan team 🙏
Great hotel in an excellent part of the city. Across the street from the Central Market and next to the theater. There’s a nice beautiful balcony along the front of the hotel. There’s restaurant and bar downstairs are great.
A good stay and a great steak😋😋😋
The staff were lovely

Everything was good. Staff excellent. Reasonably priced. Good food. It is an old hotel so can't expect it to be five star. Very convenient location. I am happy.

Old-school pub vibes with amazing staff and great drinks. The rooms are pretty basic for the price, and could definitely use a renovation, but they did the job for a short stay. Overall, a solid experience, I’d definitely come back!
This is a great location and a traditional pub. The accommodation is “old school” devoid of any modern fixtures and fittings and complete with creaky floorboards and old simple furniture and I loved it! Especially the balcony.
Showers were hot and powerful, I slept well. Staff were great, enjoyed the food. Just great!
Stayed here for two nights. The staff were super accommodating and very kind. The amenities were clean, and the location was superb as it was well within reach of several landmarks. Overall, a very pleasant stay.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, rooms comfortable. A bit warm in high summer with a fan but no aircon, but hey, it's Adelaide in summer.
Could hardly be closer to the Tour Down Under event village - I'll be back next year
This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The staff were rude and arrogant on check-in. Come on fellas, did your mother's not teach you basic decency and respect. The rooms including the shared showers/toilets were in a filthy state. No love and care for the guest what so ever. Only one blanket on the bed. Nothing to make a hot drink with. The internet didn't work. Such a shame as this is a historical hotel being run by a bunch of morons. It wasn't worth the $85.00. for a single person. It's best to pay a little more and really enjoy your short stay. Never Again!!!
