Padstow is one of Cornwall’s most famous towns. Not only is it a delightful harbour town but it is also recognised as the seafood capital of the UK. It is imbued with local tradition including the famous ‘Obby ‘Oss festival that is held each year on May Day.
The Metropole Hotel (known as 'The Met') is a landmark hotel in Padstow. More often than not, this 4 star hotel is the first significant building you notice on entering this vibrant town. Perched on a hill, overlooking the town, harbour and the Camel Estuary, The Met has views that are hard to beat. It’s also one of the only hotels to offer reasonable parking facilities on site (believe us, that is a big bonus here!).
The combination of splendid Victorian architecture with relaxing, comfortable rooms, superb, award-winning food and fantastic views, makes The Met the perfect base for a visit to this fascinating and beautiful part of Cornwall - it also makes it the perfect venue in Padstow for weddings, family get-togethers and corporate events.
The Metropole Hotel is part of Richardson Hotels of Distinction.
We have a range of individually-appointed rooms, many with stunning harbour or estuary views - including four poster rooms for that special break.
