Unusual and interesting boutique vibes, liked the Palmer and Co bar and Kid Kyoto restaurant being basically next door. Some street noise audible on a Saturday night but earplugs provided if you need them. Endearingly oddball selection of free movies on the telly.

Loved the vibe and style of this hotel, breakfast was nice and high quality, our only issue was that if our next-door neighbor closed doors or talked you could hear. and since our room view was a company office, their commute in and out of offices at night could interrupt our sleep

It was clear this used to be a lovely hotel, but it seems it has been badly neglected. Chipped bathroom tiles that could easily be repaired, rusted bathroom ware, doors don’t close, light swtiches worn and don’t work. There were spiders on the bed and seriously noisy neighbourhood with a loud club next door that played loud music until 2am, and after that the noises from delivery trucks and people preparing in nearby restaurants. We wanted to change hotels in the middle of the night as we were not able to sleep at all due to the noise and fear of more spiders that might crawl in bed again. Such a shame and disgust for a Merivale hotel which is supposed to be a 5-start hotel. I think they should shut down and renovate as they are misleading guests. To add to the bad experience, access to the hotel reception was hard to find. There should be proper access from the bar off George St or at least signs from George St leading to Bridge Lane. We checked in on a Sunday and the Est Bar was closed and we struggled to find the hotel lobby looking for signs from the Est Bar door but there was none! I gave my feedback to the reception staff, they apologised and said the next time I come back they will put me in higher floors. Note this is a low rise building and the only you won’t hear that noise is if you were on level 20 or higher! Absolutely lacking sufficient comprehension of the severity of the problem and our experience. Not good enough Merivale!

First the not so good stuff. At first it was a little bit hard to find the entry to the hotel lobby, need to go down an ally/lane. Definitely needs more signs and a sign at the lobby door. The room we got had thin walls, we could hear the people in our neighboring rooms talking, and also a bit of music from a bar or night club. The room itself was a bit outdated, could use a lift up. The lighting system can be a bit confusing, but once you memorised the buttons it wasn't too bad. Now the good stuff, The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. The hotel itself has a nice old rustic feel to it, very moody. Hotel has direct access to 2 of the attached bars. And of course location wise, you can walk 5 minutes to anywhere, restaurant, bars, train stations, Circular Quay, and there's a light rail station next to the building.

The property is quite lovely. Very spacious room and bathroom. Very conveniently located to lots of nearby amenities, and neither light rail and circular quay. The staff were incredibly kind and very helpful. There was nothing there would not do. The only problem I had was that the Property is quite noisy, I could hear people coming and going down the hallway as of the evening and early in the morning, and opening of other hotel room doors. Sound seems to carry/ Reverberate under the door. I would say the property is more 4* in quality rather than 5*.
