This hotel was perfect for us since we needed a place close to the cruise port. We simply walked across the street with our luggage the day of the cruise. Another plus is that it’s centrally located with many shops and restaurants close to it. We also enjoyed the free Rocks Museum that is located in the alley way next to the side entrance. The rooftop had a beautiful view of the Sydney Bridge and Opera House, however there are many bugs up there which made it a bit uncomfortable. I would stay here again in the future if I ever go on another cruise out of Sydney. The price is very reasonable for the amenities you get. They also have a little bar in the lobby and a breakfast restaurant. One night we didn’t feel like walking outside and the room service steak was delicious!

Staff and location were excellent. Big negative was the hotel room thermostat was sent not to go below 19.5c. Uncomfortably warm at night. Asked the staff to cool the room off more… they said they could not. Would not. Unacceptable for a “quality” hotel.
