I have just returned from a four day trip to New York, staying at the Hotel Metro. On arrival we were upgraded to a room with two double beds and I thought this was a good start! Our room was spacious and looked as if it had recently been refurbished, altogether very pleasant. The shower room was very small but smartly decorated and arranged, with a large walk-in shower.
The staff were fantastic and nothing was too much for them. They really made us feel welcome.
My only problem was having difficulty sleeping. Our room faced right on to a huge building under construction, literally only a few metres away. We didn't actually hear all that much noise from it, but it was kept fully lit up all night and, as our blinds had been cut too small for the window, there was bright light shining in all night.
We also had a very loud extractor or vent outside our window which went off all night too, though earplugs solved this a bit.
It was a pity we couldn't sleep better as everything else about the hotel was excellent. I would give this 4 and a half really.

I went to the Hotel Metro one week in January with a friend, it was my second time there and it was even better than the first time.

We arrived earlier than the check-in so we were upgraded because we had to wait for the room. So we had a bigger room with a view on the Empire State Building. It was excellent!

The breakfast included is a real pleasure, big muffins, bagels, bread, cereals, juice, coffee... all that in a great atmosphere.

The room service was excellent too, the bed was huge and the mattress perfect!

The hotel is extremely well located near the Macy's and the Empire State Building, you can't ask for a better location.

The hotel has also a terrace on the roof and it's wonderful! You go there and you see the Empire State Building right in front of you!!! EXCEPTIONAL!

I won't hesitate if I go to New-York another time!

I loved this hotel!! Great location if you're walking Manhattan also easy for the subway at Herald Square. Pleasant lobby and public areas including Gym and roof terrace...good continental breakfast included in room rate in an informal lounge area. Standard rooms are small but very comfortable... good wardrobe space, ironing board and iron,safe, small empty fridge and ice on tap. Bathroom has v good hair dryer, good selection of toiletries excellent shower and fresh towel's and bed linen daily. V good selection of tv channels including foreign language channels and the excellent BBC America. I would defiantly stay there again and recommend it to friends.

Stayed at the hotel metro for 10 nights over thanksgiving (November). Hotel staff were so lovely and helpful! Breakfast of muffins, cereal, toasts was a great start to the day. Tea and coffee free available all day. The rooms were so spacious and cleaned everyday. Room had a great view of the empire state! :-) Only about a 5 min walk from times square so was perfect and 1 min from Macy's. The roof top terrace was great, although chilly for a November night, but will be great for summer nights. currently planning our trip for the summer, see you soon!
