The hotel is located in a wonderful neighborhood, close to good albeit not cheap restaurants and offers a convenient city-walk to the foreshore. The rooms are modern with refreshing decor but lack a bedside table. The manager, unfortunately, was a bit rude, overshadowing the tours and ticket assistance offered. The included dining features typical local bread, but the breakfast could be more varied. Overall, the facilities are up to par, with room for improvement.

The hotel is perfectly located, allowing easy access to the Opera House, Wooloomoo wharf, and the Botanical Gardens. The surrounding art deco architecture adds charm. While the rooms offer a pleasant stay with good WiFi, the service from the manager could be more pleasant. The dining experience includes typical local bread, but more variety would enhance the experience.

The hotel is located in a nice area of Sydney, with a restaurant below and close proximity to the Harbour and botanical gardens. The rooms are comfortable and meet all requirements, but some have shared bathrooms. The service was marred by a rude manager, but they offer tours and ticket assistance. The dining experience includes Asian dishes and is generally satisfying. Overall, a decent value for the price paid.
