Called the hotel and was quoted over $400 for the night so I said I can get it for half that rate online so that’s what I did on Wotif When I got to the hotel I was told that the booking wasn’t in their system yet so go and have a seat and wait for it I was then told she can book me straight in but I’d have to cancel my online booking which I paid $207 for that had a no cancellation policy so she would take my booking directly for $260 and check me in straight away otherwise I would have to wait I said I can’t cancel my online booking and was told there is nothing she can do about that I presented my booking confirmation email and after demanding to speak to management she finally decided to check me in I’ve never been treated like that before by a hotel reception so it’s very disappointing

Lovely, quiet hotel an easy walk to the Sydney Central train station, which is just a few stops away from both the domestic and international airport stops. There are lots of dining options within a 20 minute or so walk, including Chinatown and Darlington Harbour. We had a great time exploring little cafes and restaurants nearby. The hotel has a pool and very friendly staff. The room was clean, comfortable and big. There is a bus stop around the corner where you can catch a bus across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
