Cons (-) 1. Facility is old and parts are in need of refurbishing. 2. Given room that had small window and view was of park, … not of Sydney Harbor. 3. Mosquitoes due to cleaning staff needing to leave door open to service room and no insect screens on doors and windows. 4. Breakfast was good selection of col items included in room rate but not on a par with other hotels that included in-depth buffet of ho...

Batty, Mar 2025
Pros (+) The views were amazing, the ocean just screams relaxation doesnt it? There were plenty of short walking trails to see the area. The room was so spacious it could be a small apartment. Every single staff member we spoke to was lovely, even the two gentlemen who were moving matresses around :). Complementry breakfast that was fantastic with a generous spread and coffee or tea made to order. I'm defi...
Cons (-) It's tiny issue, but there is a sizable restaraunt that is connected to the hotel. They have music and the restaraunt patrons chatting or sometimes yelling from midday to late at night was invasive. However, I was able to turn it to white noise after a while. My friend however couldn't.

Sarina, Mar 2025
Cons (-) We flew from Europe at night. When we arrived, the receptionist seemed to be young & inexperienced for a hotel advertised at this quality. We were then shown our room by the receptionist. The view included the back of a restaurant with about 10 garbage bags outside.

Amanda, Feb 2025
Pros (+) Lovely staff, fresh simple breakfast was perfect for kids, not too far from the city. Rooms are slightly dated but very comfortable and ours was quiet. Cute little balcony overlooked the park.
Cons (-) This is no fault of the hotel but we didn’t realize that ferry services from Watsons bay are quite limited on weekdays, so that’s something to bear in mind for a city day trip. There are busses.
