Absolutely loved my stay here. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, the location is fantastic, and the whole place has a really fun, stylish vibe. Breakfast being included is a great touch, with plenty of options — I grabbed mine to go, which was super convenient. The complimentary minibar is also a standout, with water, soft drinks and snacks included. The rooms are on the smaller side, so larger suitcases can be a bit of a squeeze for longer stays, but everything is thoughtfully designed and very comfortable. Overall, a fantastic experience — I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

This is our second stay at this historic boutique hotel in a few years and it has continued to provide excellent accommodation, service and food. Located within a 5 minute walk from the Light Rail, Darling Harbour and the ICC and Tik Tok Entertainment Centre, it was so convenient for our 3 day stay in Sydney to see Split Enz in concert. It is also a 25 minute walk to the CBD and offers lovely quayside walks. Since our last visit, Percy, now offers not only an excellent, good value à la cate breakfast but in the evening transforms into a fantastic tapas restaurant. The reception and restaurant staff are friendly and welcoming. We chose a larger room with a comfortable bed and everything you would need in a hotel room, plus some free drinks and snacks. We wouldn’t hesitate to return.
