It’s a good hotel with a very convenient location to Port Jackson and Downtown. Room is clean and quiet. Staffs are great and helpful. My only concern is the rooms without an elevator that you have to carry your luggages to and from the room because the first two floors are bar.

Good location. Great beers at the bar but squeaky bed, no breakfast, no lift, leaky ceiling in bathroom, bathrooms in need of a face lift. 10am checkout without any option for late checkout made our departure at 4pm very sweaty. Staff helpfully let us keep our bags there for a bit but by the time you’ve lifted your bags up 2 flights of stairs, you need another shower! Really nice staff, but hotel does need a bit more attention to up it to a 4 or 5 rating.

The Lord Nelson is a historic hotel bar and brewery. The rooms above are basic but charming. Ours had a great view of the Sydney's city lights while removed. The bathroom was a nice surprise. Expected a more out of date bath but is was clean modern and adequate in size. The staff was welcoming as you come and go through the bar.

We left room to go get dinner. When we got back, door would not open all the way so that we could not enter again. They worked on it for over an hour while we waited downstairs in the bar. They did comp our two drinks while waiting. After over an hour, they came back and said they got the door open enough for us to get in but suggested we move to another room since door was not actually fixed. The room they moved us to had a working door but was smaller. New room was also outdated with window treatments that stated "do not touch- under repair" with a loose nail on carpet. Honestly, the people are very nice but the rooms are outdated and under need of repair. Not sure what regulations are in Australia, but first room especially was a fire hazard.
