We stayed on the top floor and had an amazing large balcony on the roof with the best view! There is no elevator but we didn't mind. The location is good, close to bus stops into the city and you can walk to cool shops, cafes and bars. The person on the desk was very friendly and accommodating with our bags.

Great Oxford St Location

Good location for our trip, room was a good size and beds were comfortable. Could do with some charging points, so take your wall plugs. There is no lift so need to take that into consideration for those that can’t do stairs. Overall happy with our stay.

The hotel is great and comfortable and the staff are excellent and attentive and just lovely! We had to extend one night and we were given a great option and a smooth room transition.

Spacious room for family stay

We were in Sydney for an overnight stay, choosing this hotel for its location. The room was surprisingly spacious with three double beds making it a great spot room for a family.

Buen hotel

Creo que tienen áreas para mejorar, por ejemplo poner un accesorio para poner la toalla en el baño, no hay lugar al momento de bañarse. Quizá también cambiar el extractor de aire, es ruidoso, se apaga con la luz del baño, pero encendido hace ruido. El servicio de las personas que atienden es muy bueno.
