Arrive early for a light meal or a glass of w**e, then settle in and see where the evening takes you.

Every Monday from 6.00pm

A little strategy, a little friendly rivalry, and an afternoon well spent.

There's something rather lovely about whiling away a Saturday afternoon over a game of backgammon, especially within the timeless surrounds of The Metropole.

Whether you're a seasoned player with a clever move up your sleeve or simply curious to learn, there's always a place for you at the table.

Join us this Saturday for a relaxed afternoon of good company, gentle competition and perhaps a little conversation over a glass of w**e or something delicious from our kitchen.

Every Saturday | 1pm–4pm
The Metropole Katoomba

No need to book. Simply wander in, pull up a chair and let the games begin.

An evening of w**e, stories and good company. 🍷

Last night, our heritage library came alive with conversation, curiosity and the pleasure of discovering something new.

From thoughtfully selected w**es and delicious cheese pairings to lively discussions and shared discoveries, The Metropole Tasting Room is about more than what’s in your glass. It’s about slowing down, connecting and savouring the experience.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful host, Clio Collar, and everyone who joined us for such a warm and intimate evening.

Join us for our next Tasting Room on Thursday, 19 November. We'd love to welcome you around the table.

A Christmas to remember, in a place where time stands still.

There’s something rather magical about Christmas at The Metropole. The warmth of old-world hospitality, the gentle sounds of jazz drifting through heritage rooms, tables set for celebration, and the simple pleasure of gathering with those we hold dear.

This festive season, we invite you to step away from the rush and rediscover the joy of Christmas, the old-fashioned way.

Join us for a beautiful Christmas Eve Dinner, accompanied by live jazz, gather around the table for our Christmas Day Buffet Lunch, or make the occasion truly special with a overnightfestive stay in the heart of Katoomba.

Whether you're continuing a cherished family tradition or beginning a new one, we'd be delighted to share the season with you.

An evening of mystery, intrigue and a glimpse into the unknown.**

There has always been something enchanting about old hotels. The stories held within their walls, the secrets of years gone by, and the quiet sense that some mysteries are simply waiting to be discovered.

This Halloween, as The Metropole's grand old rooms come alive with curious characters and unexpected encounters, we invite you to step into the mystical world of Sarah Barry Psychic.

Settle in for a personal tarot reading and discover what stories the cards may have to tell. Perhaps a little insight, a curious coincidence, or simply a moment of magic amidst the evening's festivities.

Saturday 31 October
The Metropole Katoomba
Personal tarot readings, 5 minutes for $20

Join us for a Halloween evening where heritage charm meets the mysterious, and where the past, present and future might just cross paths.

Some traditions deserve to be savoured. ✨

We loved welcoming and her girls to The Metropole, and seeing them enjoy a little old-world tradition during their Blue Mountains escape.

Warm scones with jam and cream, a pot of tea, and time to simply sit together. There’s something rather lovely about sharing the ritual of Devonshire Tea with a new generation.

Join us at The Metropole and make a little tradition of your own.

Devonshire Tea served daily in our heritage Dining Room, in the heart of Katoomba.

There’s something rather lovely about lingering over a cocktail in a place that has seen more than a century of stories. 🍸✨

Find a cosy corner at The Metropole's Bar, where heritage charm, warm hospitality and beautifully crafted cocktails invite you to stay awhile.

Perhaps something bright and refreshing, or a classic best enjoyed slowly beneath the glow of our historic interiors. Whatever your preference, there’s no need to hurry. Some afternoons are made for good conversation, a beautiful drink and nowhere else to be.

Hotel guests, locals and walk-ins are always warmly welcomed.
