Metropolitan Hotel, Heritage hotel in Sydney Central Business District, Australia
The Metropolitan Hotel spans four stories with a brick and sandstone exterior, featuring an octagonal corner cupola near Wynyard railway station.
Built in 1909 by Tooth and Co., this structure replaced the 1851 Castle Tavern, which later operated as La Villa de Bordeaux until 1879.
The building incorporates Art Deco elements in its public bar area, maintaining original timber doors and architectural details from the early 20th century.
Located at 244 George Street with entrance through Bridge Street, the establishment operates across three levels without elevator access.
The hotel survived two demolition attempts in the 1980s and received protection as part of Bridge Street's historic boulevard preservation initiative.
