Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a spacious and clean room with a convenient central control panel at reception, although the wheelchair lift behind the lift was a bit confusing. Service was highlighted by a shock at check-in due to overbooking but was quickly resolved with maintenance spraying the room. The location is perfect for both train and car travelers, with an excellent tram network and nearby amenities. Dining showcased a superb Indian dish but could use more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly staff and some minor hiccups.
The hotel's location is fantastic, overlooking Goulburn Street and close to all city highlights. The rooms, although small for two people, had a view, but there were grotty stains on the carpet. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. The dining options were good with varied choices, but the breakfast room was too cool due to the air conditioning.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were quiet and spacious but unfortunately very dirty with mold in the shower and a scratchy blanket on the bed. The price was quite high considering the overall unpleasant experience, despite the convenience of the location.
The hotel offered cozy rooms with a comfortable bed and a great shower, ideal for my 3-night stay. Despite being a bit small and located near the elevator, they were clean and surprisingly quiet. The service was exceptional, with welcoming and polite staff who kept the room and bathroom exceptionally clean. The location in the Central Business District was perfect for my needs, with friendly and helpful staff ensuring a pleasant experience. The dining options were decent, although not as good as previous visits, and the facilities provided were worth the value. Overall, a satisfying stay worth the money.
Upon arrival, the room was not ready despite being past check-in time; it lacked cleanliness and could use a refurbishment, only suitable for sleeping due to limited space. The service was friendly and helpful, yet failed to provide receipts upon request. The location was convenient, surrounded by major facilities and attractions. The dining options were average, offering the same everyday buffet. Overall, a place with potential but in need of improvements.

I found the hotel to be in a convenient location with easy access to various attractions. The rooms were clean and in good working order, though it took a bit of time for the air con to cool the room when I first arrived.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were small and filthy but surprisingly quiet despite overlooking PITT Street. They were comfortable but needed better cleanliness. The location was convenient, close to various attractions and public transport. However, the neighborhood had a diverse mix of shops and signs in Chinese. The service was welcoming and proficient, making my short stay enjoyable. The dining experience was slightly disappointing in terms of variety compared to the price paid.
The hotel had a good location, close to necessary amenities, but the room size was quite small. The cleanliness was satisfactory, but the lack of soundproofing affected my stay negatively. The provision of tea and coffee was appreciated.
The hotel was a mixed bag, with clean and functional rooms but a noisy location next to a nightclub. The staff were friendly but fell short in communication. The convenient location was a plus for exploring Sydney, despite the loud surroundings.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great for sightseeing and clubbing with friends, but the room wasn't as expected and seemed overpriced.
