"A treat to stay here, in the mountains. Wonderful welcome and service from the reception staff. The historic decor of the hotel makes it interesting to wander through. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the magic views from the windows."

"Contact less check in, very impressive "

"Very friendly staff and nice ambience."

"Reception staff were cheerful and very helpful. Curtains in motel were a bit jaded, lounge chairs were very comfortable as was the bed and I had a good nights' sleep and the road traffic at night did not disturb me. Walk to railway station was comfortable and I came across a cafe called Blue Bird Cafe which was near a walkway across to the station. All in all a very comfortable & convenient stay for me. "

"Great location. Enjoyed the original elevator from 1904. Excellent vibe. "

"If you'll use public transport frequently, Metropole is located conveniently less than 5 min away from Katoomba station and the first/last bus stop to see The Three Sisters or visit the neighbouring Leura. Inside the hotel, I'm transported back in time where the only lift moves very slowly across 3 levels and requires manual door-opening. There are cosy nooks to cuddle up with a book or take their delicious Devonshire tea. The room is spacious tho the bathroom could be a little cold. Service is lovely but you'd need to do without it after 5pm, including keying in a code to let myself in."
