The hotel is ideally located in The Rocks area of Sydney, close enough to walk to the city center and surrounded by wonderful old style Australian pubs. The rooms are clean and comfortable, offering a lovely little veranda with a partial view of the bridge. The service was great, especially at my request for downstairs assistance. The price is reasonable for the value provided, but there are a few minor drawbacks to consider.

The hotel offers a lovely view of the very iconic opera house and a kitchenette in the room, but the balcony was a very small area mostly occupied by the air conditioning unit. The service during check-out was great, but the bathroom was located outside the room in the hall. The location is fantastic, ideal for the cruise ship terminal and centrally located in The Rocks area of Sydney. The included dining with fresh fruit, bacon, and eggs was a nice touch, but there were no comments about the facilities.

The hotel is perfectly situated in The Rocks area of Sydney, offering a centric location near the cruise ship terminal with easy access to everything. The rooms provide a lovely view of the iconic opera house, but the balconies are small due to the air conditioning units occupying space. The service is top-notch, with attentive assistance during check-out. The dining experience offers included options like fresh fruit, bacon, and eggs, with a touch of homemade organic products. The facilities are well-kept, but some rooms have appliances crowded with multiple power boards.

I absolutely loved my stay at this charming hotel. The rooms were cozy and beautifully decorated with a lovely balcony, and the breakfast served in the kitchenette was a delightful treat. However, the historic style of the rooms may not be to everyone's taste. The service was impeccable with great assistance offered upon check-out, though it would have been nice if it was more naturally provided throughout my stay. The location was perfect for exploring Sydney, being centrally located with easy access to the cruise ship terminal and surrounding attractions. On the downside, the area around The Rocks requires some walking but is worth it. The dining experience was superb, especially with the included fresh fruit, bacon & eggs, and homemade pastries. The facilities were top-notch, adding to the overall comfort and convenience of my stay.

The balcony was a nice touch, but the shared bathroom upstairs was not ideal. The location was convenient for my activities in Sydney, but I found the dining experience to be lacking in variety. The service was pleasant, especially when I requested something downstairs, but the price could have offered better value for the amenities provided.
