“This Sydney hotel impressed me with its quiet location and proximity to attractions like Darling Harbour; rooms are well-sized, some featuring balconies for a light, airy feel. Breakfast, while an extra cost, seemed a worthwhile start to exploring the city. It strikes me as a solid choice, especially for those wanting a balance of convenience and calm.”
