Staff and location were excellent. Big negative was the hotel room thermostat was sent not to go below 19.5c. Uncomfortably warm at night. Asked the staff to cool the room off more… they said they could not. Would not. Unacceptable for a “quality” hotel.

Close to OPT
The room was ok for an overnight stay, we stayed here as it was close to the overseas passenger terminal, we were leaving on a cruise the next day. The room needed a makeover, the carpet was threadbare, the bed was comfortable. We had a look at the pool it was nice but you have to walk up stair to get to it.

The hotel is in the perfect location for cruisers. Easy walk to restaurants, shops, Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay Station etc. The hotel itself is nice enough, the room we had was small and the furniture could do with an update, but overall good enough. Would stay again.

After having stayed 5 years ago there has been a massive decline in the hotel. It looks very tired in need of a refurbishment. Location is brilliant so just needs to be upgraded internally.
