“The location of the hotel was perfect. Room was excellent and the food we had in the bistro was just awesome. We had assistance from the staff at check-in which was great. The hotel is ideally located for Chinatown access and walking distance to most Sydney shops and sights. In future it is located right on the light rail being built on George Street at the moment.”

“Location, art-deco decore, restaurant, comfort & clean.”

, Australia

“Management were able to give us access to our room very early which gave us a full day to enjoy a walk along the Goods Line to Darling Harbour, the Maritime Museum and Chinese Garden. We loved the whole art deco theme and the location so close to Central Station. Great bistro although we ate at the YHA restaurant up the road. Room was large with a king size bed and everything was immaculate. Original art deco features have been retained, including the wonderful 'Smoker's Room' door!”
