    Gym is small - would be better to have a partnership with an external provider in this case

    Well located in the city with external parking option and a nice restaurant and coffee bar

    nothing at all!

    It exceeded my expectations by far, if I could give it a higher rating I would. Everything very modernized, the room excellent, the location, EVERYTHING! In fact, I looked for more hotels from the same chain to stay when I have another trip.

    repetitiveness of the breakfast

    it was all really nice. ordering the breakfast from the same small menu everyday was maybe a little boring after the second or third time, but the food overall, the hotel itself and the rooms and the staff were really really nice :) we had a great time and miss it already

    They changed rooms in between the stay for some maintenance and was a bit of inconvenience for my in laws as they are old. The bar is nice, but a couple of $ more for the same beer down the street.

    Great location. Just a few minutes from the tram and queen Victoria building. Walkable to circular Quay and darling harbor. It's just a perfect spot. The room was clean and friendly staff.

    No view to speak of which was disappointing, but given the location there is really no view to be had.

    The a la carte breakfast was good. You can have a $40pp breakfast if you like. Very central and handy to walk around the CBD

    Weekend getaway
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Superior King Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Room could do with more hooks in the entrance for coats (was raining) and in the bathroom. Found the dining onsite a bit overpriced and the change ofmenu at 11am to be problematic. On a Saturday looking for late breakfast a la carte and nothing was appealing on the lunch/evening menu to meet that need so went elsewhere. Spice bar advertised some form of happy hour, but the menu didnt present that. had a $25 cocktail that had an additional weekend service charge added on. Dissapointing. Surcharges generally, booked online but then paid further surcharges on top of online price. Think that is deceitful

    room was spacious, well appointed, modern and good use of tech. Reception was friendly and helpful. Used an umbrella during the stay which was useful. $20 Environment credit a good inititive. Did not need room servicing for a weekend stay.

    the bathroom layout. there was no privacy and no hook in the shower unit to hang a towel or robe. because of the no privacy we didn't have a shower there, we travelled home to have one. I don't know what people would do if they were staying there with a friend or on a business trip and sharing a room with a business colleague.

    the newness and the staff member at check in was very helpful.

    Would be great to have drinking water/ mini bar or room service as it is a little bit far from food after working hours.

    My third time staying here for work. Boutique but very grand and high-end, very value-for-money with this price and location and very silent environment, especially for business travellers. Staff is nice, room is clean with good smell. Basically I like staying here and can sleep very well.

    A hook to hang towels and cloths in the shower room would be awesome - but that’s a minor detail

    Excellent location close to Museum Station. Great facilities. Modern room and very comfy bed. Love the iPad which controls curtains, lights, aircon and the TV.

    I think for a hotel of this standard, they should invest in higher quality tissue and toilet paper (but that's a detail)

    Well decorated, very clean and very comfortable room. Comfiest bed and pillows ever. Special mention to the very efficient French receptionist who checked us in in no time (didn't catch her name!)
