Great location. Next to the cruise terminal. Incredible views of harbor, Opera House and Sydney Harbor Bridge. Close to harbor ferry terminal and numerous places to eat. Convenience store next door. Hotel is a little dated but clean. Very good breakfast buffet. Biggest issues for me was low water pressure in shower and the hot tub was not working.

Wonderful stay!

This hotel is literally a 3 minute walk to the Overseas Passenger Cruise Terminal! The staff were amazing! I had taken a fall on a walk along Circular Quay & needed ice! They don’t have an ice machine but I asked for some & they brought me a whole bucket of ice 2 times. And inquired how I was doing! Everyone there was so nice & our Harbor view room was great! Could see the ship from our room!

The property had that boutique quality to it with a staff that was accommodating and attentive to ensure our stay was a pleasant one. We did have an initial mishap at check in that the staff quickly remedied and made us whole. A great location with fantastic views of Sydney Harbor especially from the pool on the roof.

This is definitely a hotel where you are paying for location. The staff were lovely (except for the barman who tried to overcharge for our bottle of wine!) The room itself was rather basic for what you are paying. It is looking a little dated as well. Clean and in a great location for getting on a cruise ship the next day, but not really worth it for the price. Very basic amenities - only really worth half the price charged.

Perfect Sydney harbour location

Great location after coming off a cruise ship. Wonderful views from the rooftop pool area. Staff was friendly and helpful. The Rocks is an interesting area to explore. Location close to ferry docks and trains. Just a great place to stay.
