Advantages: Great location & Proximity to Darling Harbour nightlife & Monorail. Disadvantages: No view of the bridge or opera house.
Have stayed at this hotel on 2 occasions & was very impressed, The consierge has all the information you could need & can make bookings for you at very short notice, The staff are all very helpful & the rooms appear to be well maintained.
The food is of a very good standard & international.
Most of the rooms to the front have good views although you probably wouldnt spend too much time there as there is so much to do in Sydney.
The deals / rates for the rooms seem to change daily so if your not happy with the first quote try telephoning them on a different day & see if it is different.
The hotel is ideally based for the bustling nightlife of the area & is also very easy to get to by car. ...
My next review is on the SydneyHarbour Bridge, which is perhaps one of the most iconic monuments in Sydney, if not the whole of Australia.

High-speed Internet access is available in all rooms. It costs £14.99 for 24 hours or £75.00 for a week.
Price
