“In my opinion, this boutique hotel prioritises location, placing guests within easy reach of Sydney's vibrant core. The contemporary refurbishment stands out, while the inclusion of a shared kitchen caters cleverly to budget-conscious stays. The staff's local dining recommendations, as I discovered, add a personal touch beyond the standard hotel experience.”
