    What a gem of a hotel. Near enough to Circular Quay to walk but far enough away from the hurly-burly there. A step from quaint and charming George Street and right under the harbour bridge. Superbly comfortable beds and a quiet room. Breakfast buffet is very good too. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.Eugene the concierge deserves a special shout-out- knowledgeable, helpful and cheerful, he made the stay even better.

    Big rooms! Enough space for suitcases, etc. Big kitchen, too. Nice rooftop with a great view! I was there for NYE. It was pretty expensive but in comparison to other offers in Sydney the cheapest and best option. Walking distance to Harbour Bridge, Opera House, City Centre. Quiet.

    Great location in an early part of Sydney with many areas in walking distance. Close to Central Station so easy to get anywhere in Sydney. Good eating places very close by. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and very efficient in their duties. It is an old building which has been completely refurbished into an awesome boutique hotel. Some nice little touches such as muffins, croissants etc if you just want something light for breakfast as well as a nice bar area if you would like to enjoy a quiet drink before heading out to dinner

    The good - The apartment was great size wise, it was nice to have a balcony. Cheaper than a lot of hotel but with the added advantage of having all appliances, you could easily stay here for longer than a night or two. Pool and spa were great. The bed and pillows were comfortable and I liked that you could get the room dark and it was very quiet also. Parking process was very simple Great location
