Editorial Review for Hotel Metropolis – by Gayot.com
The Scene
Cool, contemporary and undeniably original, this eccentric hotel is a stark contrast to its Victorian-dominated surroundings. At the same time, it is a testament to the unique personalities that make up this cosmopolitan community. Unfortunately, the staff isn't as friendly and welcoming as the decor.
The Details
Each of the 105 guest rooms is inspired by one of the four elements--earth, wind, water and fire. In keeping with its chosen theme, the in-room decor is highlighted with custom-made furniture and whimsical knickknacks that fight for space in the sometimes cluttered rooms. While at times overwhelming, the hotel is fun and anything but traditional. Perhaps the property's most unusual feature is the "holistic/well-being room," a kind of lounge where guests can go to meditate. The bedrooms designed just for kids (bunk beds and all) are also notable.

We stayed from a Saturday to Monday and they had our room ready for us. Staff was super nice and the hotel was very cute. The rooms were the same size as any other boutique hotel in the Union Sruare/Powell Street area - Unless you are used to staying at regular, cheesey hotels like the Hilton or Ramada. The room was clean and the showers worked just fine. We had three people in our room which was a Deluxe Double/Double and had hot water for all three showers and enough room for us to move around, including having our lugage out. It is on the VERY EDGE of the Tenderloin. but we never had any problems. On Saturday we took a walk around 2:30 am to get some pizza and we had no problems or were not scared to be out in the area. On Sunday we came home between 2-3 am and also did not run into any trouble. Our friends were staying at the Whitcomb(?) on Market and 8th, fancy hotel, about $300 a night and they said they would have rather stayed in our hotel. We will definitely be staying there again and I will be recommending this hotel to others.

The rooms were not bad but not anything special. Front desk staff was very rude. In our one night stay the fire alarm went off two or three times and we were forced to evacuate. Our group was there for a bachelorette party so we were very unhappy to be woken up by the fire alarm early in the morning and forced to evacuate. I believe the problem was with the elevator which was out or service with no sign to prevent guests from trying to use it. The firefighters who arrived were less than happy with the staffs management of the situation. Our shower had very little water pressure and very little hot water. The area is very shady. We ate at Carl's Jr. around the corner and saw someone get mugged. The security there told us this is not uncommon in the area. I was followed out of Carl's Jr. by someone who was obviously strung out on something who was trying to give me something. When I ignored him he threw it (a penny) at me. I told the manager about our displeasure with the hotel and was told he could take a few dollars off our stay. I will NEVER stay here again.
