    comfortable bed
    friendly staff
    occasional noise

    great location with cozy rooms

    The Superior King Room was spacious, offering a comfortable bed that ensured restful nights. The friendly staff made our experience enjoyable, providing helpful recommendations for nearby attractions. The view of the serene Chinese Friendship Garden was refreshing and added charm to our stay. The city view from the room was a lovely bonus, enhancing our morning routine.

    The only drawback was the noise from the tram, which was occasionally disruptive during quiet hours.

    fantastic location
    spacious room
    roadwork noise

    Fantastic location near the theatre, and check-in was a breeze thanks to a wonderfully kind gentleman. Enjoyed a spacious superior room that felt modern and comfy.

    However, the roadwork outside rattled my nerves past midnight. Ear plugs were the real MVP during my stay!

    sound issues

    The location was amazing! So close to Darling Harbour and lots of dining options. My only downside was the sound—could hear everything in the hallway. Overall, a nice stay! 😊

    tasty eats
    great location
    fabulous breakfast
    poor service
    see-through bathroom

    The location is spot on with plenty of tasty eats nearby! Try out Betty's Burgers for a stellar bite or swing by The Bucket Boys for craft brews. Plus, the hotel breakfast may be pricey, but you'll definitely kick off your day right!

    On the flip side, service could use a dash of love. requested basics like dental kits and were left waiting. The bathroom door was awkwardly see-through too. a bit of privacy would be nice!

    central location
    clean room
    breakfast variety

    I had a short stay with my family and enjoyed the central location near entertainment options. The cleanliness of the room made it a good choice for us. We especially liked the breakfast provided in the morning. It helped us start our day right before exploring more. The kids had a great time at the club with various activities, which was a nice break for us.

    Room was super clean and comfy. The bathroom had a rainfall showerhead and nice toiletries. Great amenities like a minibar, flat-screen TV, and coffee machine.
