My husband and I spent 6 nights at this gem of a hotel. It's location is fantastic , directly behind the pacific centre mall and the major tourist attractions including Stanley park are short walks away. We were given a great room on a high floor with a huge bathroom both with whirlpool bath tub, walk in shower and his and hers basins. The decor of the bathroom was slightly dated but still very luxurious. The hotel has a great pool, jacuzzi and gym facilities which are generally not very busy so whatever time we would go down to enjoy, it was very relaxing. The thing that stood out the most was the amazing level of customer service delivered by the small team working at this hotel. Everyone from the front desk staff, the concierge team, the door men to the cleaning staff were amazing. They were friendly and went out of their way to deliver exceptional service. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable. We will definitely stay here again!
Oh and the pancakes served in diva were divine.....yum!

And I mean that, because from the moment you step in all the staff make you feel welcome and that your custom appreciated. Full disclosure - I rarely stay anywhere else in Vancouver, and a colleague has over 200 nights. But they keep track and reward loyalty - a box of chocolates may not sound much but shows a level of customer service I have rarely seen elsewhere and which I, for one, appreciate.
Location - great. Downtown. Two hundred metres from the penultimate stop on the Canada Line and an easy walk even in light drizzle, but even if it is raining cats and dogs everyone takes their umbrella to Vancouver! An easy walk to the waterfront and Yaletown, a bit further to Robson Street or Stanley Park, but then you need to lose those extra pounds, don't you.
Rooms are great. I haven't used the restaurant very often, but it is reputed to be very good and the one time i had breakfast there I had no complaints. I have spent many hours at the Diva bar, and the bar staff are great, although on my last visit they were cutting back the opening hours, I guess while everyone recovers from the fiscal shock of Christmas.
Bottom line - I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone, business or pleasure.

My husband and I had an overnight stay at The Met as a belated Xmas gift to one another.
The central location is perfect for walking, shopping, movies, restaurants etc. Hotel staff is friendly and helpful. The Hot tub and pool area are well maintaned and the perfect spot to relax. Rooms are well appointed, TVs could be a little larger, beds are very comfortable.
Would stay there again.

I stayed at the Metropolitan for 5 nights. The location is great. Ot iis close to both touristic and business areas. The rooms were spacious and clean. The stuff is friendly and helpful. They have an indoor swimming pool and (too) small gym. Good restaurants and pubs near as well as public transportation to practically any location you need to get to.
