"The hotel location is excellent, you can get around walking easily. Staff very helpful. The hotel is very nice, part of it historical. Good shopping, cafes, bars and restaurants just steps away. Everything was wonderful for breakfast, a lot of choices, except for the service, it was slow. "

5/5 Excellent

"Flew in from Brisbane. Just recently stayed for one night before going on a Cruise. Very happy with the accomodation and the location itself. Was an easy walk to Mascot Train Station for Trains to the City. I had a good night sleep the bed was very comfortable and I was very impressed at the sound proofing of the Rooms. The Hotel is very close to the airport and once in my Room I didn't here any air traffic noise from the Room at all. The checkin process is easy and the staff were very welcoming and friendly on arrival. Checkout was very easy with express checkout available. If you have a flight stop over in Sydney or even have a Cruise booked departing from the Cruise Terminal at Circular Quay I highly recommend staying here for your pre accommodation. Very happy with the Hotel and will definitely be back."
