Situated in an extension of the street, two big rectangular dark grey doors mark the hotel entrance, higher because of a few grey marble stairs. This dark colour enhances the white colour of the facade. Two grand pools ornated with iron sculptures decorate the exterior of the establishment. Inside, the black and white modern furniture installed below high ceilings is decorated with bright red carpets. There is a dynamic atmosphere here, thanks to the decoration but also to the contemporary background music. You will find a big white marble desk which serves as the reception. The lilies arranged in the middle of the room diffuse a nice smell of fresh flowers.
As the majority of the hotels in Bangkok, the Metroplitan does not have numerous sport infrastructures but has a big rectangular outdoor swimming pool surrounded by a ochre wood floor. This is protected from the views from the street; however, it is surrounded by big buildings. A few wooden beach chairs with white mattresses are arranged on one side of the pool.
The establishment is equipped with a beautiful spa, the Como Shambala Urban Space. It has ten massage rooms and offers numerous treatments such as manicure, pedicure or reflexology. There is also an indoor Jacuzzi which overlooks the outdoor garden.
