Metropolis Reviews
Attended the end-of-year work event.
Food was good, no complaints there. But the venue was way too small for the number of people they hosted.What really ruined the experience was the security. They actually yelled at us to leave the venue while there was a long queue at the exit — all because they turned off the down escalators and kept the up ones running. How does that even make sense? It created a huge bottleneck and delayed everyone trying to get out.Ridiculous and very poorly managed.
We had our wedding at Metropolis Events and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. Everything — from the planning stages to the final moments of the night — was exceptional.The menu tasting was such a highlight and gave us so much confidence going into the day. The room on the night looked absolutely stunning and exceeded all expectations. Our wedding planners were organised, supportive, and so easy to work with throughout the whole journey.On the night, every staff member was amazing. The bridal assistant was outstanding and so attentive, and even the security team were incredibly friendly and professional. Everyone was kind, helpful, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect.Metropolis went above and beyond in every way. We truly couldn’t be happier and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!
📝 Formal Incident Report & Feedback
To the General Manager, Metropolis Southgate,
I am writing to express my gratitude for the beautiful venue hosting the recent wedding of Win & Linda. It was a pleasure to attend.
This correspondence serves to provide feedback regarding an observation concerning a Metropolis staff member named Tiana. While I personally did not experience any issues with her service, I was troubled by an incident involving her interaction with contract staff.
Specifically, I witnessed Ms. Tiana engaging in a highly unprofessional and elevated verbal exchange with a security officer (Guard 295, whose full name I do not recall).
In the hospitality sector, maintaining a calm and respectful demeanor toward all individuals, including colleagues and contractors, is paramount. Ms. Tiana's behavior, characterized by what appeared to be shouting, was completely unacceptable. I commend the security officer for demonstrating remarkable professionalism by ignoring the provocation and maintaining his composure, stating, "it's okay."
This kind of conduct towards staff should not be tolerated. The security officer's measured response is a testament to his professionalism, and Ms. Tiana should be appreciative that he did not escalate the situation further.
I trust that the management of both Metropolis Southgate and the security provider (Guardia) will thoroughly review this incident and address the staff member's conduct appropriately.
