The Metropole Hotel

Our room was great, and the price was great value also. Also room service was perfect, and the food very good, and great quality.

Our room was very cold when we arrived. And we were told we couldn't have any heating until 9 o clock. which we found to be unbelieveable. We were offered a small heater, but with the bathroom to cold to enjoy a bath, before heading out, it was very disappointing, and also took the joy out of what you a hotel, which is some warmth and luxury..We had to put on extra clothes, forgoe our baths/showers, and make the best of it, but it wasn't comfortable until the next day, when the heating had been on for a while...Also we couldn't get the music system to work, and a porter checked it, and said maybe it was our Cd's? And said nothing could be done about it, as you had none to spare..which was also a bit dissapointing, as we had CDs of the band we were down from dublin to see at the marquee, and when we saw the player, were delighted as thought we could play the CDs beforehand, to find out we couldn't. Although later that evening, my husband cleaned the player, and we got it going, but leading up to going out, we were cold, and couldn't play the music...Also the bar and reception couyld be made more welcoming visually, it all looks a bit vast and cold....
