Love the location being able to wake up each morning overlooking the Sydney Harbour, love the pillows. Hard to find comfy pillows. Very cozy apartment. This is our 2nd stay here and will always be our choice. There are so many good restaurants below the hotel & ferries to go cruising to another place like Manly.

This is an exceptional hotel where the emphasis is on caring for their guests. Every contact we had with the team working at the hotel was outstanding. The room was exceptionally comfortable, clean to a T, and so well equipped. The location is exellent only a short walk to the harbour and the opera house. One of our suitcases had been lost en route from Bordeaux and when it was traced the hotel staff tracked it at Sydney and ensured a timely delivery. Fantastic care and attention. Our only regret is that we did not stay longer. Do not hesitate to stay here you will love it.

    For a 5 stars hotel it was horrible experience, parking was a hassle, they don’t have valet service you have to park in a wilson parking across the road and come back walking, cross the busy road, no pedestrian crossing nor pedestrian lights, overall it was very bad experience
