It was a beautiful place to stay & well situated , but there is room for improvement.
It was lovely & clean & smelled nice.
No hand held shower, not enough coffee and milk, cleaning staff were very noisy in the mornings.

Great location and lovely Hotel
We celebrated our Anniversary here we only had two nights, but the staff made us feel extra special with a beautiful treat. The hotel is Close to everything, lovely hotel and has all amenities and lots of great eating options in the area and at hotel.
While this is a lovely hotel, the rooms are finished quite basic, tea coffee etc are very basic, for this standard of hotel I would expect a little extra, but this is the only negative.

Great location and views, staff were excellent.
Place is starting to look tired, stained carpet in room, has been repainted at some stage but wasn't a very good job, with poor quality workmanship.

Good high-quality urban hotel close to Circular Quay
This was a quick overnight stay between flights. We arrived late in the evening but didn't need to continue the trip until the next afternoon. Checkin was friendly. The room was relatively spacious with a pleasant city view. Only a short walk to Circular Quay.
All was good. It is rather expensive, but the location is prime.

100% will return, no car next time as parking was too expensive and public transport is so easy.
Right in the heart of Sydney, two minute walk to Corcular Quay. Gorgeous room, excellent breakfast buffet, plenty of food and shopping nearby.
Parking was astronomical at Wilson’s next door

Good value, fantastic location and impressive staff.
Fantastic location, Big comfortable room which was also very quiet which was real help with sleeping. Staff were also very friendly and helpful.
Other than the water pressure was a little low nothing springs to mind.

Pleasant but nothing special. Overpriced for what we got.
Good location, anniversary gift.
Disorganised staff. When we arrived to check in at 3:30pm we were told that our room wasn’t ready however, when I challenged the staff member re: check in time quoted at 3pm on booking, a room became available. Also, we dropped our bags off at the hotel prior to check in at approx. 9am and when we went to pick up our bags at check in (3:20pm) we were told that they had already been sent to our room. When we got to room, the bags weren’t there and we had to wait another 15 mins for them to arrive.
