Frommer's Review

Centrally situated between the financial district and downtown shopping areas, the Metropolitan is geared toward business and leisure travelers who want traditional luxury and full service. Guest rooms feature large, marble-tiled bathrooms with separate tub and shower, and wonderfully comfortable beds with Frette Italian linens. In 2008 the guest rooms were refurbished with new carpeting and furniture to add a splash of color to an otherwise muted color scheme. Many units in the 18-story hotel have small balconies, but the views are not the hotel's selling point as the building is dwarfed by the Four Seasons across the street. Guests have use of a sauna and steam rooms. The hotel's restaurant, Diva at the Met, is regarded as one of Vancouver's top restaurants.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; indoor pool; health club; Jacuzzi; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; same-day dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; Wi-Fi in lobby and restaurant; squash court

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
