Disappointed
Slow checkin. Auto checkin machine at reception is compulsory and then you get to checkin again with a real person. We were lucky enough to get the trainee after the couple before us was served by an experienced employee. No pool! Small rooms. Our room has an internal licked door to the ine next door and we could hear everything as they had many people yelling.

Nicely refurbished rooms
Our stay was good. Newly refurbished rooms look very nice. The bed and bedding is very comfortable. Our only complaint is that We find that all the synthetic cotton mix/polyester bedding is quite hot to sleep in. The shower is very good, but the half glass on the cubicle means water goes out onto the bathroom floor! You have to wonder if whoever designs these bathrooms ever actually uses them! You have to be very tall to reach the hooks on the back of the bathroom door! We did not like the “self Check in”. The receptionists have to help most people to “check in & out” on these “self serve” kiosks anyway. A very good breakfast. A little disappointing that after ordering Gluten Free Eggs & Toast, I had to ask 3 times to finally receive my meal. I am medically diagnosed Coeliac. The hotel is very conveniently located to Circular Quay and the Opera House. We would stay here again.

Disappointing. Changes and not for the better.
Was self check screens which you have to type all the info in on a screen with app type keyboard. Really dislike those as it’s very impersonal and you can’t talk to them about the room you want, eg quiet. You pay all that money and they want you to do all the work for them. Rooms had been refurbed, but aircon was very noisy. Had to turn it off overnight. Probably won’t use this hotel again.

The location is fantastic for transport and walking to most attractions is easy. The overall service level we received was not quite up to standard ie. the room was not vacuumed, towels often taken but not replaced, cups/glasses not cleaned and no facility to clean in room, the lack of soundproofing to the adjoining room, extremely noisy air conditioning unit that had a mind of its own and would increase circulating on a random basis. Overall the feeling is the place is in need of some upkeep and maintenance.
