Good location and bad location all at once. Right across the street from Chinatown and the central market, but traffic and construction all through the night being right in the CBD. Very early mornings due to the loud construction nearby. Bar/restaurant below was good. Staff was helpful.

This is a very randown hotel. There is no lift and you need to hand carry your luggage to your room. You need to check out your room at 10am and you can't store your luggage in the hotel because the hotel reception is closed. There are no bottle water and the toilet is shared. I will never come back this hotel. Oh btw the room insolation is very poor. You can heard very clearly what the people is talking outside your room.

Staff were amazing, welcoming and friendly, Hotel was just as described, old style pub accommodation, basic rooms are comfortable and clean, the building itself is a bit beat up in places but that adds to the charm. it was a great place to stay. construction site across the road was a bit noisy

The hotel itself was fine, bare-bones as far as the rooms but a nice bar with good food, friendly staff. However, the Expedia listing did not say that the rooms all have shared bath. It wasn't a problem for me, especially because the hotel wasn't full, but some people would not be happy to learn it at check-in.

The location is convinient if you don't have a car. It's a basic, city based accomodation. It has a bar and the restaurant downstairs, hosts live events, expect some level of noise. It's a heritage building and the decor matches the era. Relaxed, no fuss vibe.

Very central and the Markets are fantastic. Chinatown also next door. Easy to get around walking or by tram. But unfortunately the noise was a problem. Friday and Saturday live music. Construction work outside still ongoing from 5AM.

The Hotel Metropolitan is a traditional Australian Hotel, with shared bathroom facilities, but it gives excellent value for money. Given its central location and all-round convenience, it's a bargain! We get what we pay for. If you're after a simple base in Adelaide, and only need a room to sleep, with easy access to bathroom facilities, at a bargain price then look no further! Although my room (queen size, balcony room) perhaps looked a little tired, it was clean, with a very comfortable bed and lovely soft fluffy towels. The bathroom(s) were always clean, and I did not have wait once. (The weather was hot, so I showered twice a day!) Despite the appearance of a busy and successful and convivial pub, my room was quiet. The 'pub' side of the business closed at midnight. I was in Adelaide for the last two days of the Festival (Friday and Saturday night). I had spent plenty on events, and planned to eat and drink well. I did not travel to this beautiful city to spend time in a hotel room. If you need a basic, convenient, safe and clean base in Adelaide, this place is a winner! The pub staff were friendly and welcoming. I will certainly stay here again.

We spent a terrible night at this hotel. No ensuite, no lamp, no tea and coffee making facilities, single beds with stained doona covers, noise until midnight and terrible area around the hotel. The only highlight was the market over the road and when we left. Terrible place. Don’t recommend it at all.
