Absolutely loved it here and would highly recommend and stay again if given the chance. We were well looked after from check in to check out, we stayed for 7 nights and enjoyed the bar and restaurant. Food was amazing (especially the olives) and very reasonable for Sydney. Location was perfect as we stayed during Vivid but even then it was easy to get around and great link from the airport. Thanks guys!

We stayed in the king room and it was fantastic. Good size room, decor really lovely, bed was so comfortable, blackout blinds for a sleep in and an incredible shower. The location is on point, 5mins walk to casino, 10mins to Seafood markets, directly across from walkway bridge to city and bonus points that parking station is literally 200mtrs from car to hotel door. 100% would stay again and recommend.

Rooms are a bit small even for the upgraded room but the balcony over looking Darling Harbour was huge. Amenities were excellent and the rooms are all sound proof so no excessive noise from elsewhere. Received an email after booking telling me the Parking off site was $60. Overall enjoyed the stay.
