Location good. Hotel room a bit shabby, chipped paint on walls, noisy workman outside at 4am! Old noisy heat pump, mosquitoes in the room, got bitten several times despite having repellent on, ? Coming in from the drains as windows don’t open. Mould in the bathroom. Cold tap was tricky to turn off. Staff were helpful and polite.

The staff were great and you can't beat the location but our room 305 while on initial walk in looked clean was not. When our bagged was kindly brought up to our room due to two flights of stairs I mentioned to the front desk staff member the state of the bathroom. The shower recess was full of black mould which was evident to the eye. On closer inspection the mould was under the sink shelf and had crept into other knooks. Not nice.When I went to take a shower I turned on the cold tap and it fell onto the bathroom floor so couldn't turn on any cold water. My husband managed to do temporary fix to use. But this is a problem.The Tv did not work and I woke up the next morning feeling not well. Very stuffy, mouldy room. Had to get out to get fresh air. It was unfortunate. I think the carpet needs either a very good deep pressure clean or replacement and the bathroom definitely needs a proper bleach clean. But other than poor room, the hotel reception was lovely, the staff great and wonderful location at the Rocks.

I loved how close it was to the harbour and surrounding pubs, restaurants, and bars which made it very exciting to explore the surrounding area. The markets also happen over the weekends so I enjoyed the selection of exciting experiences throughout my stay. The hotel itself was lovely and the room was more spacious than I thought which was nice. The staff were friendly and accommodating and overall I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

An absolute gem in the heart of Sydney’s Rock district. The hotel itself is in a fantastic spot…close to major sights and shopping. The hotel was eclectic, modern and historic (all in one). Our room was spacious and bright. The hotel staff were wonderful.

Good Location
The hotel is in a very good location. The building suggests it is a former quayside warehouse from at least the 19th century and the interior has an industrial appearance. The ground-floor room on the side, and hence no traffic noise, was satisfactory and the bed comfortable. It was necessary to contact the reception on the first of two nights, after we had gone to bed, when a door in the corridor outside could be heard regularly banging shut, and it was resolved. However, the breakfast arrangement that we had paid for was very poor, being in a tiny public, off the street, French creperie café, also accessed from within the hotel. The available food menu was very limited.

The hotel is heritage listed and this was a key reason we chose it. But our room was a totally modern room with a contemporary fit out and decor, nothing heritage about it. The room was also below ground level with no window. We could have been in any hotel room anywhere. It's a good location but the reality didn't match the advertising.
