The location, staff, and value for money were perfect for what we needed. The bar downstairs was handy for a cool beverage. Surprisingly, our room was not disturbed by any of the bars' noise. The room was clean and tidy with a little mini bar fridge, coffee machine, hair dryer, and kettle. Would definitely go back.

The bed was a little on the small side. The ventilation in the bathroom didn't work and shower design meant that water ended up all of the bathroom floor, and there was mould in the tile grout.

Compact yet clean and attractive rooms, comfy bed and amenities, interesting decor with a nod to history, great Sydney location.

The advertised noise was more and went longer than expected - did it really have to be that loud?! No way suitable for dinner either. It would have been more bearable if the TV in the room was set up properly - only one channel available with pixelated interruptions to it - unwatchable - so not even able to distract from the relentless “rave/dance” beat.

Brodie the manager is worth his weight in diamonds- from the moment of our arrival he made us feel welcome and helped me so graciously with a medical issue I had while there. The rooms are quaint and ours had a delightful little balcony to enjoy. Old world charm with new world comforts. I can never thank Brodie enough for his A+++ hospitality!!! Give the man a raise!

Started off with a great experience with the staff checking us in and the room itself was so lovely with great decor and everything you could possibly need from a hotel (kettle, hairdryer, tea and coffee). The pillows and the bed itself were so comfortable and a decent size for my partner and I. We had a great nights sleep. Definitely recommend!

The shower didn’t have any partitions so the floor was soaking wet every time we took a shower but it’s not the worst thing.

Staff were absolutely friendly and helpful. Close to anywhere, so i got to explore a bit in between going to the embassy and waiting for my flight back. I love how the hotel feels like it's telling a story about its history through all the small details around the place. Also, providing earplugs in case it's too noisy for the guest downstairs is a lovely touch.

Room was clean and well presented. I liked the old style charm of the hotel. It was a mid week stay, but found it to be quite a night, which surprised me considering how busy the traffic etc was outside the hotel.

The shower was pretty bad unfortunately. Took a very long time to get hot water and then amount of adjusting of the taps required to get right temp was crazy. Pressure was also very lacking.

Lovely old building. The interior complements the aged features of the building and was a welcomed escape from modern designs. The staff were exceptional and the location superb!

No on-site parking. Paid parking was available a block away but turned out to be a pretty penny at the end of our stay.

Location was great. Good stay for what we paid. Bed was super comfy. Liked the idea of the coffee machine and pods.

Bed’s could have been longer. Should have been a shower screen to block the water spraying out. Window didn’t lock which worried us that our things would’ve been stolen whilst we were out.

The room was a great size, good value for money.

The doors to the lift/stairs close of an evening to keep the noise out. Great idea, but the doors look the same as the room doors and is a little disorientating if you aren’t aware and trying to leave.

Character hotel in the heart of Sydney. Great bars and comfy bed! We also had a cool balcony to enjoy the city from.

The room could have had more amenities like a bottle opener and wine glass - but easily fixed.
