So this is a “hotel” in the old fashioned meaning of the word, it’s actually a traditional Australian pub with upstairs lodgings. No ensuites, so bathrooms are shared like in a hostel. No airconditioning so rooms get a bit stuffy on a hot humid day, though the absurdly tall ceilings and stone walls do make it tolerable. The rooms open straight out to the balcony which is pretty cool tbh. No kettles or running water in the rooms. No room service. The TV didn’t tune anything, but the wifi was good, over 50Mbps reliably. The building looks over 100 years old, it’s too bad they don’t lean into that and sell it as a traditional Aussie public house experience. Some people complained their rooms were too small, but the twin room I was in was huge, so I’d book the twin even if you’re staying by yourself. If you want the hostel experience but with your own private room, and like the idea of living above a pub and hanging out on the balcony with a drink from the bar and a smoke, the Metro is for you. If you want a modern hotel experience, you will be disappointed. I kind of liked it and am curious what other heritage listed hotel/pubs are like around Adelaide now. For the same price per night though I would stay in even a crappy modern hotel instead though.
