Can’t recommend this hotel enough if you are after accommodation that is near Darling Harbour, Star Casino and is easily accessible via ferry and light rail. We chose a room with a Queen bed. It was a tight fit, but it is all you need for a short stay. The bed was comfortable, ample pillows, and power points handy to charge phones overnight. The bathroom was quite large, with capacity to sit down during a shower. Only downside in the room, was a Nespresso machine that did not work. However with a cafe on the ground floor, a coffee was easily accessible. Close by are a number of cheap and mid range restaurant options. We did not need to enter the Darling Harbour precinct to find a variety of food choices. The staff were very friendly and could not do enough to make our stay pleasant and memorable.

Wonderful hotel and fantastic staff. My stay was faultless - and I am pretty hard to please when it comes to cleanliness etc. I would happily stay here again. The staff went out of their way to accommodate my needs and their service was friendly and cheerful. Really great.

Mine was just a quick overnight stay for a conference at the ICC. I arrived late and the auto check-in kiosk worked a treat. The night staff then text me to check I had everything I needed and had checked in OK. A nice touch that made me feel welcome and valued. Bed was comfortable, room quiet, shower great. Overall a well appointed little room and a friendly hotel that I'll definitely return to in future. Perfect for stays in central Sydney, particularly Darling Harbour.
