The Art Nouveau mosaic by Mikhail Vrubel that tops the Metropol's facade sets it apart in era and in style from other hotels of its class. Some of its grandeur has faded in comparison to the newer luxury hotels in the neighborhood, but the Metropol, built in 1901 and last renovated in 1991, remains ...

Overpriced and Sad - user review
I could only get a single room. At more than $300 US, I should have had more than a tiny bed, a television that did not work and completely unhelpful staff. When checking out, the hotel had only one person at the cashier despite the fact that it was the prime check out time. Four requests later near...

Completely Overrated - user review
I love old hotels and simply do not understand the positive reviews on this one. You enter through a parking lot into a lobby that is supposed to be grand, but is not. The staff at the check in desk were some of the rudest I have ever encountered. The hallways have carpet that is threadbare in place...

A legend - but why? - user review
It is huge and knackered it reminded me of an institutional hospital, only the lunatics have been replaced by heavy expense businessmen who like a good choice of hookers in the lobby.

Metropol: For the severely well heeled - user review
For the ultimate luxury when in Moscow, I'd say you'd be hard pushed to beat the Metropol. Its prohibitive prices meant that it was not an option for me, but I was able to enjoy the hotel bar during my stay in Moscow comfortable leather chairs and a relaxed ambience. Friends on business have said th...
