Why guests love itLe Metropole earns its 9.4 rating by pairing an actual heritage building, dating to the early 1900s, with a heated pool that stays usable through Alexandria's cooler, rain-prone winter months. That combination is unusual here: many of the city's older hotels have seasonal pools that shut down once the Mediterranean weather turns. Add balcony rooms, sea views and a French fine-dining restaurant, and this reads as a couples' or special-occasion pick rather than a family splash-pad stay.
