Outdated and smelly

The hotel was old and outdated, stayed in many Best Western hotels BUT nothing like this one. Strange smell in the room, found hair in the carpet when it was supposed to have been cleaned (photo attached) Mentioned this when checking out but receptionist not really interested.

The room was tiny and in immediate need of refurbishment. There was a dangerous piece of old cabinet work jutting out from the wall with a very faded 'mind your head' sticker on it. The shower was good but above a bath rather than a cubicle. The room was tolerable for a one night stay but no longer. The staff were friendly, and the breakfast excellent for this type of hotel.

Needs attention.

This hotel is very very tired. Kitted out in wipe down surfaces instead of soft furnishings. Paintwork peeling. Mold in the bathroom. No sockets bedside and the single USB socket was not working. Bed was comfortable. Staff were a delight. Also we were downgraded in our rooms from those we booked without any notification.

The room was perfect. It was clean and spacious. Bathroom was clean. The breakfast was very minimal. The only fruit available was either an apple or a banana there was no natural yoghurt only flavoured yoghurt pots. They just wasn’t much selection.

Excellent service. Would use again.

Excellent quality hotel for a good price. It's a little out of the city but close to Ponds Forge, but this is reflected in the price. The room was a good size, clean with a good space to work with a comfortable chair. The bathroom was a good size, clean and easy to use. The bed fit me (6' 3") well and was comfortable, the pillows were comfortable too. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If I am back in Sheffield I will certainly look at staying here again.

Our stay at this hotel was disappointing from the start. Upon arrival, we struggled to locate the hotel as it had changed names from “The Metropolitan” to “Best Western”—something we should have been informed of in advance. After walking around trying to find it, we had to ask in another hotel for directions, which was frustrating and not the best start to our trip. Once we checked in, we were given a room with a connecting door to the next room. Unfortunately, at around 1am, we were woken by extremely loud, aggressive shouting from the room next door. As two females traveling together, we felt very uncomfortable, especially as it sounded like there were multiple men in the room. While we understand it was a Saturday night and some noise is expected, the walls were so thin that it was impossible to block out the disturbances. We eventually called reception, who advised us to lock our doors, which didn’t resolve the issue. After about 30 minutes, the group left the room, but they returned around 3:30am. This time, it seemed like drug use was involved, and the situation felt just as unsettling as before. Other than these major issues, our stay was okay, but given the lack of security, thin walls, and failure to notify guests of important changes, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel—especially not for families or those looking for a peaceful, safe stay.

Fantastic nights in Sheffield

The hotel is affordable and very close to the city centre. Room had a hairdryer built in, very comfy bed sheet plenty of choices for seating in the room. TV was a lil small for viewing from the bed and the toilet paper wasn't the greatest, also wish there was an alternative option to a bar of soap? But these are small complaints, this is a fantastic hotel
