The Metropole, Phuket Town
We found the staff unhelpful and the room dirty. The floor needed vacuuming and the bath tub had mould around the rim. On arrival at the hotel having walked from the bus station with our suitcases on hot weather we received no help with our luggage unlike all the other hotels we stay at. We found that the unfriendly staff did not know basic travel and tourist information however we managed to get around by reading the books we brought along with us which were much more helpful.

This is not a hotel that I would recommend to anyone else than someone that expects a bassic bed to sleep in and a room that s ok. The staff at this hotel are sometimes very nice and helpful, but sometimes also make you wonder if you re a guest or just an annoyance.
I would only recommend people to stay here if they are in transit through the harbour to the islands outside Phuket.

The room was dirty. The water was yellow. The bathroom was moldy. The help was clueless and the internet did not work.
The only good thing was that we only were staying 1 night on our way to Phi Phi island. Unfortunately, we arrived late and it would have been too late to find another hotel, because we would have switched.

Bra hotell med bra service. Mysig pol på fjärde våningen. det var bara en ung och grön nattportier som inte pratade så bra engelska som man kunde förvänta sig på ett så stort hotell med gäster från hela världen. Helt ok för övernattning på vägen

Good location, friendly staff and the rooms were ok. Perfect hotel for a short stop.We stayed only one night on our way to Koh Lanta and the excellent White Rock Resort at Klong Nin Beach.

The staff of the hotel is very helpfull and friendly. The hotelrooms need a better cleaning program, the rooms are not clean and very dusty.
Overall I think the rooms need a renovation.

We stayed for one night on 28th Dec 2007 because the resort we d booked was full for our first night in Phuket. We had interconnecting rooms on the 10th floor. I had previously read lots of reviews saying the hotel was dirty and not very good but we thought it was fine. The rooms were a good size, the bathrooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The rooms are perhaps looking a bit tired but for the price we paid it was really nothing to complain about. Breakfast was the usual buffet fare with a mixture of local and Western food - very average. It is not a bad place to stay for just one or two nights, but no longer. I can t think that anyone would actually stay here for their Phuket holiday, I imagine it is used by most for a one or two night stopover inbetween islands, beach resorts or perhaps on business. I wouldn t mind staying again if a similar situation arose.

The Metropole was in a good location for shopping. Rooms are a little dingy but clean, and the service was great. Windows could use a wash inside and out and bay side room windows were too high to see from when sitting. Our fist room on this side of the building we did not get much sleep due to the nightclub across the street with a BOOMING bass. The last day we asked to be moved across the hall and it was much better. Windows were lower too. The medium sized pool is outside on the 4th floor with towels and a change room. No chairs the first day but they showed up thereafter. Breakfast was an interesting mix of Thai and western foods with plenty of choices. We did not eat in the hotel restaurant otherwise. The Metropole is a good value for the money.
Liam Seafood restaurant across from Ocean Shopping Mall provided our worst meal in Thailand. A nice fabric store is near the hotel on Phuket Rd. Lots of small shops and restaurants in the immediate area with good barganing fun. Central Festival Phuket was very overpriced. The free hotel shuttle took 40 minutes and stopped at many hotels. We paid 150b for a one-way taxi home.
