Top Hotels in Katoomba with Spas

The hostel is near Blue Mountains National Park. There is a heater inside to keep warm Very recommended stay The staff was also very nice and would help recommend the climb trails The kitchen is so big that you can bring your own food

The hotel is located on the edge of the town centre, ten minutes walk from the train station, and the surrounding supermarkets and restaurants are complete. The facilities are old but the overall decoration is still very retro and the staff are very welcoming. Breakfast is very common Australian food and not very tasty, but still acceptable.

Jamie provided us with the best greeting we have ever had at check-in. He was warm and friendly on arrival and asked us did we know the area and were we looking for anything in particular. He then took the time to highlight the specific locations on a map that would be ideal for our photographic adventure. We arrived in the early evening and Jamie had the heater on in our room and the lights on for us and this was greatly appreciated on a cold Katoomba evening. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable, The large bathroom was recently renovated with plenty of hot water in the shower. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and fully intend to do so in the future.

It’s a hotel full of history and that’s why the rooms, amenities are a bit old. Our balcony room as ok and the view from the balcony was nice. I enjoyed watching the sunrise there. The room was not very spacious but you got everything you need. The exhaust fan in the bathroom was really dirty and just making me feel uncomfortable. Hope the management of the hotel will focus on the cleanliness of the bathroom.

~Location~ The location was very central to the train station, town centre, Echo Point and restaurants. It is across the road from the RSL which is convenient if looking for affordable dinner options. The RSL is also stop #5 if catching the Explorer bus making it very easy to get around without a car although we walked to a lot of places. ~The Room & Establishment~ The room was clean and comfortable albeit a bit basic it did have a TV, fridge and coffee making facilities, a small table and chairs and a small cupboard. The bed was comfortable although the pillows weren’t great. Whilst there was AC the room was quite chilly and there were no electric blankets but there was an extra blanket at the foot of the bed. Breakfast is ok but nothing flash. A few different cereals although healthy options are limited, some fresh fruit, only 2 toasters for the whole dining room and some scrambled eggs. Whoever makes the coffee obviously doesn't drink it as it was awful and we heard several other guests say the same :( Hot water/pressure: Fantastic Wifi: Good (did drop out periodically) ~The Service~ Communication: Fair Understandably after the pandemic, staffing has been difficult and changed and as such both reception staff were both new. They were both lovely but things like check in could have gone more quickly and smoothly (eg instead of leaving guests waiting to check in to show other guests where the dining area was, there could be signage and if multiple guests are checking in at a peak check in time *2pm* perhaps both reception staff could be on duty).

Brilliant for family friends getting together, the Staff are very friendly and exceptionally helpful front of house & back of house, Breakfast was fabulous, the chef was fantastic if you wanted fried eggs or extra hash browns it was no trouble. The rooms warm & cosy very clean, the lounge areas were spacious & warm with electric fireplaces great for board games, chilling out or afternoon nibbles & drinks . Would highly recommend The Metropole it's easy walking distance to cafes & bars and takes you back in time with old charm decor beautifully kept .We will be back and spreading the word
