The hotel is centrally located, very comfortable, well furnished rooms with king beds and good air con. Unfortunately no exhaust fan in bathroom, a mini fridge which doesn’t cool down enough to store food and incredibly tight parking next door. If you drive an SUV you’ll find it’s almost impossible to unpack the car and manoeuvre around.

Fantastic location right in the middle of Chinatown. Soooo much food to choose from. Close to train, trams etc. Room was neat n tidy. Very small but commensurate to rate. Basic facilities. No maintenance over Anzac weekend which really is unaffordable for service needs. Couldnt find location as arrived in dark and there is no lighting outside on the street so maybe this could be addressed Overall a very pleasant stay

Excellent location for exploring Sydney city and China town, very walkable with lots of dining options. All the basics you need for a comfortable stay is in the room. We stayed on the second floor (same level as reception) - unfortunately it was very noisy which disturbed our sleep. Pillow choices also not fantastic (bed is great).

Beautiful and very clean hotel but it’s very much style over substance. The mattresses were the worst we ever slept on and the pillows were so high we all woke up with sore necks. Also no storage space whatsoever which is a shame as the staff were all great and hotel itself is nice and in good location.
