Quirky place inside but great staff and good rooms. Very well located with parking right across the road. Easy walk to Barangaroo and there is a metro station really close as well. Been there before and will return for any city stays.

Great intimate hotel with a nice vibe and perfect location for walking. Restaurant was outstanding, staff was very helpful and friendly. My only concern was that there were not really any places dedicated to put suitcases in the room. We had to put them on the floor which was a bit inconvenient, but would not stop me from staying there again - a minor inconvenience.

Nice staff. Great location for events at Darling Harbour. Clean. Compact rooms. 2 criticism: There is a lot of water wasted while you wait 5 to 7 minutes for hot water to come through. We read this in other reviews on Google and those reviews were accurate. Air conditioning does not work. It was quite cold all night. If I didn’t have my heater husband with me, I would’ve had to go and get extra blankets.

I have stayed at this property on two occasions. It is extremely clean and walking distance to ICC and light rail. Parking is available across the road in a parking station. Breakfast and coffee were good. Staff were polite and friendly. Only drawback was the air conditioning which despite supposedly being individually controlled in each room did not work properly and was a bit warm even after bringing this to the attention of staff.

The property was exclusive and of interesting structure. The staff was extraordinarily nice however the room had some demp smells when entered. The air circulation system was turned of what most likely caused these smells and the windows couldn’t be opened to overcome the unpleasant odours.

Conveniently located for Darling Harbour area, we had a good sized, stylish room with a great bathroom. The bed was very large with best pillows I’ve experienced in a hotel for some time. The hotel was quiet and all the staff were welcoming and helpful. The only down side was the complete lack of view from our top floor room - it was just walls of adjacent buildings. However, I suspect there was little to see (a car park and other hotels) in the immediate vicinity.
