Really enjoyed my stay, got a really good deal thru booking via trivago. Had an awesome view from my room window, harbour, opera house, city skyline, perfect view. Perfect handy location, for train into city.(kings cross subway) Many pubs, clubs & restaurants all close by. As for the hotel, front counter staff were great, friendly, cheerful, and complied to my booking notes request, which is unusual for most hotels, especially when you have booked thru an agent at a discount price, they usually stick you in the dungeon. (Im so used to opening the curtains of my dark room to a brick wall at the price I paid) So 20 out of 10 for the front counter staff. The room was clean and the house keeping each day was great. The bed was kind of too hard for me, but I got used to to it after a couple of late nights. I didnt try the restaurant, as I ate out every day. The only thing I dis-liked was the the lobby bar was not very well stocked, very basic indeed for a international hotel. And the bar girl kept leaving the bar to attend/assist the kitchen staff?? I and others stood awaiting service for well over five minutes on one occasion, some people even walked away. Overall though I do highly recommend the hotel, and will stay again in the future.
This hotel has spacious rooms with a great view of the harbor on one side, but a great view of the strip bars on the other. Make sure you get the right side when you book your room, especially if travelling with children. Rooms on the lower floors are easily disturbed by the noise from the bars below. Within walking distance of several shops, including Coles.
I stay here often, a pretty average hotel all around. Wifi is insanely expensive, 10c per megabyte..... yes I am serious. The shower swings between hot and cold. Can be noisy from the street below and then some people bring the party back to their rooms. Also no gymnasium and a guest pass to Fitness First is $15. Having said all of that, the beds are comfortable and there are a few Foxtel channels to watch.
