An enjoyable comfortable short stay at a small guest house with a convivial host.

Overall cleanliness in the room and the dining area was of a high degree. The room was bright, fully equipped with everthing that was required in the sleeping area and shower room including tea, coffee making facilities, a comprehensive guide to the local area including restaurants and places of interest. The location of the guest house was within a short walk to the promenade and the town. The host was polite, engaging and provided a sumptuous breakfast which was exceptional value for money.

Nothing comes to mind that could be improved on.

First time to Whitley Bay, and I wasn’t disappointed. My husband chose the B&B/hotel and he made an excellent ch

The property was exceptionally clean and modern, the room was lovely, warm and inviting on our arrival. It’s just a short walk to the beach. Paul shared a wealth of information about the area, with suggestions of where to eat and the local amenities.

To be fair I don’t think there is anything negative about the property, if anything, maybe an option of variations of the cooked breakfast that was available, but to be fair, the breakfast was excellent!

Great place to stay with amazing host

This was our second visit and it was brilliant.

If I really had to think of something and this is only a personal request but would have been nice to have beans or tomatoes as a breakfast option. I’m certain you had them on our first trip. Breakfast was lovely with amazing choice

9.0 / 10.0

Decent place with a friendly welcome to explore Whitley Bay

The room was perfectly fine and had everything you'd expect, I had the single room. Despite the wind and rain outside, I didn't feel like I needed extra heat but the option was there and nicely explained to me. The made to order breakfast options, which I didn't have, looked and smelt wonderful. If you are looking for a place near the parkrun, this is 10 minutes walk away. Lots of restaurant recommendations and options. When I was walking out later you can basically just follow your nose and it will be hard to go wrong! Parking really easy on the road, I parked opposite without any problem. The space directly in front is also reserved for guests.

The blinds didn't quite cover the windows and not a real criticism of the room but I was there during a storm, it did wake me up but that's down to the weather. The bed wasn't quite as comfy as I would've liked but it's not terrible either and I think combined with the storm I woke up a few times. The wifi was very slow in the room, I was hoping to watch a bit of Netflix but in the end I didn't bother.

A perfect stay.

We had a fantastic stay at The Metropolitan Guesthouse in Whitley Bay. The accommodation itself was really appealing—cozy, clean, and thoughtfully decorated, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Its location is spot on, just a short walk from the beach, local shops, and eateries, which made exploring the area a breeze. Parking wasn’t an issue for us; we found spots easily in the nearby public areas without any hassle. But the real highlight was our host, Paul—he’s an absolute gem! Incredibly friendly and helpful, he went out of his way to share local tips and recommendations, and his quick wit and cheerful banter added a fun touch to our mornings. The breakfast was generous and delicious, with a great variety of options including a satisfying vegetarian choice that didn’t feel like an afterthought. Everything was fresh and well-prepared, setting us up perfectly for the day. We’ll definitely be back—thanks so much, Paul, for making our trip memorable!

Good location - lovely host. Cute room, nice touches and decor.

Paul was a lovely host- he gave suggestions of where to eat, where local bars are and how far the lighthouse was. Room had everything we needed, with some good little touches, such as cotton wool pads, ear buds, toiletries. Good locations, close to the town. The walk to the light house is anything between 40 mins and an hour, depending on your pace! We didn't book for breakfast, so cannot comment on that.

Parking on street is fine..but image could be a problem if in a busy season. Bathroom was a bit on the small side, but is is a guest house, so it's not a big deal and we were only there for 1 night.

A delightful stay in such a chic B&B

Beautifullly Boutique with stylishly curated decor and loved the artworks. Clean and fresh with heavenly toiletries. Beds very comfy. Private little courtyard at the front of the property was a lovely bonus. Breakfast was good and proper hot tea in a lovely glass teapot. So well situated with the beach at the end of the road and the Metro less than 5 minutes walk away.

Absolutely nothing.

Would stay again in a heartbeat. Fantastic.

The host was fantastic and made me feel very welcome. Room was cosy and had everything I needed, and the decor was fun and inviting. Breakfast was really good. I had eggs benedict and there was a selection of fruit, toast and juices also. Great location and my room on the top floor had a bit of a sea view. Considering the very good price for one night, I'd recommend this place without hesitation.

Nothing really. If I had to be SUPER picky, my pillow was a bit lumpy and the walls were a quite thin as I could hear the guy in the next room snoring. The window blind doesn't keep out much light, so come sunrise it gets quite bright. But honestly, non of these are a real issue considering all the super positives. Better than a lot of hotels I've stayed that were twice as expensive.

Comfortable, stylish, welcoming and excellent value.

We stopped off in Whitley Bay for one night to break a long journey from northern Scotland to the midlands with my elderly parents. We wanted somewhere comfortable, friendly with a good breakfast and where my parents would feel looked after a d secure. The Metropolitan excelled on all levels, including extra touches like dinner recommendations that took in our food preferences and the fact my parents couldn’t walk far. The breakfast was of particular note and the whole feel was relaxed and comfortable. It’s excellent value for money, in fact we’d have happily paid more for such a fab stay!

No issues with anything

Lovely modern rooms, friendly host, superb breakfast and great location.

Lovely, modern rooms with tasteful decoration and extremely clean. We had three rooms, a single and two doubles. The host was really friendly and helpful, and we would highly recommend the breakfast...lots of choice at the buffet and it includes an excellent cooked option. It's a short walk to the sea in one direction and the Metro in the other. There are plenty of bars and restaurants close by too.

We all found the showers a bit hit and miss. I think it was if too many people were showering at the same time and the water pressure dropped. It would then go freezing for a while but, as we were on holiday and not in a rush, we just waited until it kicked back in.

Lovely Guest House

We enjoyed our stay very much. The room was very comfortable and clean. The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of good options. Paul, our host, was very friendly with plenty of local knowledge. We would definitely stay again when we're in the area.

Nothing, everything was great.
