The room, and the Hotel at large, were spotless. The buffet breakfasts were delicious ---- hot/cold as appropriate. The bar serves dinner Thurs - Sat. Exceptionally good and reasonably priced food. We were at the Hotel 6 nights. It is located in the area known as The Rocks --- lots of restaurants and shopping around. It was a 5-minute walk to our cruise ship. We heartily recommend this Hotel.

Staff were very courteous and helpful, The room we had was clean and tidy and ideal for a stop over. The hotel and rooms are dated and in need of upgrade, TV is basic and the control we had was temperamental. We had a top floor room which had a great view to the cruise terminal so could see our ship come in. The hotel is easy walk to all things The Rocks & Circular Quay, with cafes and pubs steps form the door.
