Helpful staff. Allowed us to check in early. Room was clean and had nice view of harbour. Bus stop very close but service is infrequent. About 10 min walk to train station. Many restaurants and supermarket close by.

The choice of hot porridge with a luxuriously rich mix of stewed fruit from the breakfast menu was such a delight during my winter stay. I'm not sure what local kitchen this is ordered from but keep it coming. Delicious! Room had the most glorious uninterrupted views across Sydney Harbour however in general the decor and bathroom needs updating which would literally grow the spaces 1000 percent. Also, this goes for every hotel/motel style accommodation where I've stayed . . . .. and that is hooks, hooks and more clothing hooks and/or places to hang towels, clothing etc.. in the bathroom or elsewhere. A folding luggage rack wouldn't go astray either, even if it is something that can be requested during or prior to a stay. This property is in a fun, village-like location and the staff were lovely and super helpful but it's the little extras that would take the experience to another level.

I stayed for three nights, and the room was cleaned every day, making my stay very comfortable. I also really appreciated the baby crib they provided for my baby. I would love to stay here again when I visit Sydney.

Great location. I love Potts Point, great walking area. The hotel is dated, there’s construction behind the hotel. It’s noisy during the work day. The manager took prompt steps to help me with a few issues. Overall good value.

This is a good place to stay if you want to be close to everything. The property was relatively quiet, housekeeping will clean if you don’t put up the “do not disturb” sign, bus stop right in front, near a Woolworth’s and a 7 minute walk to Kings Cross train station. Access to a legit gym which has weights and squat racks. The front desk people were very nice and accommodating. The only thing is I felt the room looked a bit worn compared to the pictures. Otherwise it’s great and has all the needed amenities.

This is a hidden gem. We've stayed twice now. The view from the upper harbour facing rooms rival hotels in Circular Quay but for 1/3 of the price. A bus across the road [311] takes you to Central station and a short walk to Kings Cross Station and you can link to wherever. Loads of eating, dining options. Staff are great. Parking onsite, sometimes included and other times $40 a night. Love it!

Great location in funky area close to downtown. Bus 311 is steps away and takes 15 mins to downtown. Nice little pool with harbour view. Great choice for the price.

Was disappointed that the property was listed as having breakfast, but in fact it was only room service that the attendant said he was happy to do but advised us to go over the road. Also the parking was full and we were sent up the road with no idea of the cost.
