The Metropole Hotel

The Metropole Hotel dominates the landscape in the popular resort of Padstow, sitting on the brow of the gentle hill that leads into town.

This 4 star hotel has 58 bedrooms, many offering lovely views over the Camel estuary and the harbour. It has an AA rosette for good food and whilst seafood features on the menu (after all, Padstow is famous for it) there are dishes that feature more of the top quality local produce that Cornwall is famous for.

From its situation it is but a short stroll into the vibrant town centre. Aside from all the Harbour activity - Padstow is very much a working harbour - there is a wonderful selection of shops, galleries, and pottering stops. The town is busy throughout the year, more so in summer when there is often entertainment on the quay front, adding to the lively atmosphere.
