Stayed in this hotel from a friend's scoupon voucher. The room was not as advertised: 1) We were provided a standard double room on the ground floor instead of the deluxe room as advertised. 2) There was no bottle of wine upon arrival, as advertised. 3) The following day's breakfast was not as advertised on the scoupon voucher. The 'scrumptious'... More

Staid here one night with work colleagues. My room was on the inside of the building. It was removed from the nosie of the surrounding streets and looked out onto the internal courtyard which is quite nice. However a group was sitting in their smoking. They could see straight into my room so I had NO PRIVACY and had to... More

Booked this hotel last minute as emergency accommodation because my new apartment wasn't ready yet. I booked a standard double but was upgraded to a luxury triple. Rahman at reception was really friendly, gave great directions and free wifi! The rooms were beautiful and clean. The location is amazing, just a short walk to Chinatown but in a quiet location.

We discovered this modern-ised ex-pub whilst searching the net for post-SADE concert accommodation. Their web site made everything look modern & enticing. However, heritage buildings such as this are notoriously expensive to renovate & maintain, so we made allowances for that. Staff very welcoming & friendly. Undercover parking only 2 minutes walk away & economical for city parking. Location is... More

Nice hotel, clean room, a bit noise from your top neighbour but otherwise OK. Locationwise: you would need a good pair of walking shoes to go to downtown Sydney. Public transport is a little bit further away (ca 10 - 15 minutes to the nearest (bus) station. Not that many restaurants, shops in the surrounding 2 blocks, you have to... More

We stayed here in August 2011, we were shown to our room by the proprietor who was very welcoming and knowledgable of local tourist attractions and restaurants. The room was nicely decorated with a spacious balcony, large flatscreen TV and plenty of storage space. The reception staff were always friendly and helpful and the breakfast was superb. We thought the... More

Reception staff very friendly, room was adequate, although on the small side, was a bit on the noisy side, both from inside and out (fronts onto a main road). Very convienently located. Biggest annoyance was the fact the owner (although a very pleasant lady) lived in but chose to take her breakfast, in the main dining room at the same... More

My husband and I stayed here on the weekend 26 Nov 2011 and it turned out to be okay for the price we paid. The rooms are quite tiny, the windows are quite small so not much natural light in the rooms. The staff were friendly and helpful, however there was no staff member at the desk past 10pm and... More
