Great location for those taking a cruise from Circular Quay. The restaurant was also very good so you did not have to walk back into town. The staff carried our luggage to the 3rd floor for us!

The lord Nelson was a lovely, 200 year old hotel. Very quaint. Great service. Large room on top floor—so lots of stairs. Few details in room could use some attention like bed leg and roof in bathroom. Quiet area not far from circular quay and many amenities! We’d stay again!

This hotel was warm and inviting. The room was large and comfortable. The only complaint I would have was the noise level. My room was the first on the 2nd floor landing and the restroom for the pub customers was on the landing below mine. The door going into the restroom needs oiling! It was squeaky and I could hear the hand dryer everytime someone used it. The noise from outside was bad as well and the street seemed to be a major drag strip. It is a lovely old hotel.
