The hotel manager was incredible, extremely accommodating on my arrival after a long haul flight. Probably the best stay I've had in Sydney (and I stay every month for work).

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Nice hotel, friendly staff. Clean room with big double bed and good sized ensuite. I stayed here for 12 nights. My only reservation would be the road noise which made it difficult to sleep most nights.

3/5 - Okay

Studebaker

Darlinghurst is a good 40 minute walk to the Circular Quays where most things for us happened from. If you venture around some of the neighbouring streets they are much quieter and the period architecture was fascinating.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

The Blue Mountains at Katoomba was an excellent trip with a two hour train journey from Central Station, and of course travelling in all the ferrys
