We had a fantastic one night stay at this hotel. Been to Padstow for many years but never fancied the Metropole as the exterior looks dated but what a surprise. The staff were very welcoming and all staff spoke to us in a friendly way at all times. We were offered tea, coffee and cornish biscuits on arrival in the... More

This is a very good and very popular hotel in the lovely setting of Padstow. It is obvious that many guests return year after year and with good reason. The food is excellent and has a one AA rosette award for what I believe, is now for ten years Very well deserved. My only minor criticism is that there were... More

A rather tired grand old lady...room average but bathroom large. Beds thrown together...shocking pillows! This hotel needs some care and attention lavished on it...but it is very convenient to the village centre and did supply parking......full of huge tour groups. Very basic food served....we only ate afternoon tea and breakfast.

Nice grand exterior of building - location is good.. Rooms are VERY simple, tv only has 2 working channels with not very good picture, pillows are horrible, felt like I walked into the early 70's in the room. Staff are few and far between. For the price (£129 p/n) was not at all what i expected...

We have stayed at the Metropole twice now, the second time we had our wedding there. On both occasions, the service was outstanding, the staff very friendly and helpful and the food excellent. For those of you considering holding your wedding here, there is no need to look anywhere else. From start to finish the service was above and beyond... More

We stayed for three days over the period of the May Day celebrations. The Metropole was a good base from which to visit the Eden project, and was an ideal base for the traditional May Day Festival Bedroom was comfortable with spectacular views over the estuary. Food was variable, superb on our first evening and mediocre on the last. Breakfast... More

We were given a great room overlooking Padstow bay. The rooms could maybe do with a tiny more tlc they were very clean and comfortable with very nice en suite bathrooms. The hotel is grand but retains a lot of charm. The staff at the hotel are extremely polite and very helpful.
