It takes your breath away. Mountains embrace ocean in a spiritual accord of natural wonders. Panoramic views prevail, the legacy of residents determined to preserve a skyline money can't buy. It is in to be out. Outside walking along the Stanley Park seawall, skiing day or night on Grouse or Seymour Mountains, biking through old growth trails of Pacific Spirit Park, sailing on English Bay, shopping at the Granville Island public market. Here play inspires work, encouraging innovation and daring daydreams to come true. This picture-perfect setting deserves a picture-perfect hub that encourages these outside pleasures. Yet offers a refuge from the non-stop pace of every day - a place to rest and strategize far from the noise, yet always within a modem's reach. Welcome to life at the Metropolitan.

The Metropolitan Vancouver is situated in the heart of Vancouver's entertainment, shopping and financial districts and is within walking distance to Stanley Park, Gastown, Robson Street shops, restaurants and cruise ship terminals. The rooms are clean and comfortable although quite dated. There are some great health club facilities which include heated indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and fitness centre. The hotel restaurant, Diva at the Met, comes well recommended by many visitors and it really is delicious and the staff are friendly and attentive. All the staff here are pleasant and happy to help you with anything. Although some people feel that the hotel has a dated atmosphere, it's clean, comfortable, in a great location and has great staff.

This hotels location is perfect! It is within walking distance from the cruise terminal, the sea bus, SkyTrain, and needless to say, bus transportation. The location couldn't be better to explore the city. Everywhere we went, we always ended up within a few blocks of the hotel.
Hotel employees were friendly and courteous, especially at the Restaurant where staff provided excellent service. The food was tasty and nutrious. The staff were very polite and friendly, exceeded my expectations.
The room that i had was cosy and had a very relaxed feeling to it. In addition, the room was clean, comfortable and provided a non-smoking enviornment. Everytime i came into my room after exploring the city, i would find the weather card on my pillow. Great service.
Overall, this hotel is cheaper but provides the same service and has the same layout (room wise) as other more expensive hotels.
