Shower water pressure was a mere trickle... Corner room (#202) had us hear every vehicle and motorbike, which ALL had modified exhausts... So barely any sleep that night. Not the hotels fault, but the location on the corner ... ! ... And at 7.01 the next morning , council started their road works, again not hotels fault just lucky I guess. Convenience at the cost of no sleep .. As good as it seemed, wont be staying there again.

I booked a premium room with king bed 3.5 months before check-in. I got a room with a queen sized Murphy bed (hide-a-bed) with a mattress as old as the hotel. Shutters that don't close. Paint peeling on door and trim. Single pane windows with no noise reduction. Garbage pick up at 3am right under my window. Air conditioninf blowing directly on my head whilst in bed. The property should be ashamed of themselves for using this room for guests.

Lovely old hotel. Expected it to be just how it's was. Very little interaction with safe. No lift but it was an historical hotel and would not have had one back then. TV in odd place and couldn't real watch it. Great location. Bar area great.

Great to stay in such a convenient position easy to walk to the station , opera house , harbour bridge, circular quay . Quite noisy because of all the building works being carried out. They started before 7.30 am ! Lots of places close by for breakfast. Hotel restaurant was great, only open on Wednesday-Sunday.

Quaint, historical prpoerty with lots of character and great beer and food selection. We booked for location to cruise terminal. Not suitable for people with mobility issues as rooms are on the 2nd floor and only accessible by stairs. Probably better suited to younger clients who like a bit of night life as the noise from the streets below can interfere with your sleep if like us you retire early to bed. All in all we did enjoy our stay but probably wouldn't book again
