The mattress was too soft for us.

The property was central and had parking. The breakfast had interesting choices.

The only small thing was the size of the en-suite sink, the right size for the space, but very small, we had to dry the floor 😄

It was spotlessly clean and the breakfast was lovely.

We stayed in a lovely large room at the top of the property. Everything was as we expected, very clean, comfortable with en suite shower room and tea and coffee making facilities. We stayed here last year and returned because we thought it was an exceptional B&B. For breakfast there is a good choice of fruit, yoghurt, cereals etc following by a choice of freshly cooked hot food. Paul the owner works very hard to make sure everyone has everything they need and is a good source of information about the area and places to eat in the evening.

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!

There's nothing bad to say. Keep up the great work.

The service was faultless. Paul was very professional with the right amount of warmth and friendliness He was able to assist with advice on where to go where to eat in the local area. Everything was in the welcome booklet. Really great 👍

Mattress wasn't as comfy as I had hoped but my partner said it was comfy for him so just a matter of preference more than anything else.

Paul was lovely he stayed in touch via text message to ensure he was in on our arrival and was very helpful for places to eat etc. Breakfast was lovely, room was perfect for our break.

The shower very hit and miss with being electric.

A big thank you to Rosie for being very accommodating. Great location. Would definitely return.

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.

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.

Absolutely nothing.

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.

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.

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.
