SIMPSONS OF POTTS POINT, Sydney

Simpsons Of Potts Point - A colonial boutique hotel with fireplace lounge and complimentary port in Sydney's dining district

Located in a quiet residential street of Potts Point, this 3.5-star Sydney hotel occupies an unassuming red brick building partially hidden by trees. The upper-middle-range property features 12 rooms equipped with air conditioning, free WiFi, flat-screen TVs, and white-tiled bathrooms with green floral accents. Simpsons Of Potts Point provides a cold continental breakfast buffet including toast, boiled eggs, cold cuts, smoked salmon, fresh fruit, cereal, and yogurt. The Front Lounge showcases large leather couches, hardwood flooring, a red-patterned area rug, and a fireplace with a gilt-windowed mantel. Common areas include a guest lounge stocked with books and crystal decanters of complimentary sherry and brandy. Simpsons sits 2 miles from the city center, with Kings Cross Station a half-mile walk away.
