cant think of a single positive thing except the reasonably convenient location and the free wifi

free laundry facilities

good facilities including free laundry use

a hotel with a private room, whilst also having great communal facilities such as the kitchen and laundry, at

it is clean and the front desk is very good and we were able to catch up on our laundry

the wifi did not work. the tv remote would not work.

they also have gym and spa falicity, just a shame that i didn't get time to use them

brilliant location, well appointed hotel with pool, sauna and gym

and helpful reception staff - size of the apartment and its facilities - gym and pool - short walk to train

was clean and tidy, full amenities like kitchen and in-room laundry facilities

breakfast great breakfast with nice view of the harbour bridge and lavender bay this is a pet friendy

my wife did not think the hotel was 'pet-friendly' - as it is listed as 'pet-friendly'

couldn t connect to wifi.

breakfast- milk had curdled and the food was very tepid. bar had no tonic when i requested a g&t

also kids running up and down the hallways with oblivious parents shouting out to friends staying in

great location, clean tidy and comfortable rooms, good size tv. kids loved it.

the swimming pool is a little bit small and the design is not suitable for young kids

not ideal with kids

loved the gym and pool area. our room was exactly what we needed .

there is a bar next to it

nothing much but if anything wifi was not free of charge...

free wifi was pretty terrible - not even able to consistently stream video (ended up just using phone

our room backed straight onto breakfast bar with small blinds for minimal privacy that the kids kept opening

only one room had ac in the family suite so kids didn't sleep well due to being a hot night.

if kitchen was there in the room, it would have been good

comfortable and clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff, clean bathroom always available, wifi ok, rich breakfast

appreciate the guest laundry

convenient by public transport very well maintained and presented breakfast has expanded over the years and has

breakfast is something to look forward to , caters for all

laundry facilities

def not a great fold out sofa for kids

the premises was kept very clean and they had everything we needed for a long stay (laundry, kitchen, food

the kitchen has a lot of storage for each room, the complementary breakfast was really good

doors, talking in their rooms, watching tv, using the bathrooms or kitchen, or letting their kids run around

the laundry service is coin operated, its quite hard to get change these days especially in just 1

the wifi password didn t work

also, the published 'accommodation' wifi password had expired, but free guest wifi for the hotel was available

bar noise was reasonable for midweek

terrace was not always open, not sure what the reason was for it being closed, even when the bar down stairs

views from hotel room and roof top garden, fact that even though it was a hotel with a public bar the accommodation

the included breakfast is excellent and served in a beautiful location

hotel, fun cool bar & restaurant, great rooms, comfortable beds, overlooking the zoo, informative tour in the

the dinner in the me-gal restaurant was fantastic; great kitchen and the views on the harbour bridge and opera

t live up to its name aside from a single koala in a distant tree (not even visible from our kids room

when experiencing the days through the zoo and the bar and restaurant views were breathtaking

drinking water daily, great sized mugs for tea/ coffee, peace and quiet and great breakfast/ bar if you needed

we had room service breakfast and it was delicious. room was very comfortable and clean.

the room was beautiful, the location was great & the room service food was lovely.

wifi was hard to connect to, needed to speak to reception to sort it out which they did

room service was yum and very affordable

when we went for a walk around the piers, we came across some young kids fishing that were swearing and being

staff made our stay more comfortable great location i highly recommend and it s also pet

stayed in one of the pet friendly rooms for 2 nights (we have a staffy and a mainecoon cat)

pet facilities were excellent

location. the bar and the views. rooms were so clean and modern.

it was my daughter s birthday & we were having an overnight spa-cation to celebrate & there are no special

of service, staff and food does not measure up to the rest of the hotel, particularly in the bar and restaurant

views are amazing for sydney and i also thought the minibar was well stocked and the room service was good,

breakfast was lovely-best meal we had in sydney and we went to some nice restaurants

can't fault the place except the kids bed situation

breakfast, wifi, hot water, and location were stellar!

was still construction sounds during the day, hot water worked on and off, the tv, phone, and wifi never worked

this is a bar so there is live music, however, it goes off by 11.30pm at night

in addition, it was impossible to connect to the free wifi, probably because all the customers from the bar

i had no issues with the wifi, and the hotel is very well located - it's a short (5-10 mins) walk to the nearest

no chicken nuggets on the room service menu for kids.

there were no pool towels down there the laundry basket overflowing and no phone in the pool area to call for

brilliant size, bedroom, bath, lounge, kitchen

was great after being on a train ride for a week it was a welcomed relief to have a kitchen, washing machine a

only 3towels for the 4 of us and one pillow for the two kids on sofa bed

room had no easy chair. the wifi is expensive, and 24 hour rental doesn't last 24 hours.

food, bar and coffee was great.

the room service app is a great idea, however adding coffees to the crepe restaurant would complete the

wifi wasn't fully explained to us till a few days into our trip.

it was a little getaway for us from the kids so i had expectations with the accommodation that i felt were not

would have liked laundry facilities.

of a bar & restaurant fitness gym was poor the place lacked character and i think it is only a 2/ 3 star

in gym had issues with incline setting would cause it to stop abruptly and a little dangerously if set

the spa was out of use during our stay

is that the pool is in a very small courtyard which gets very little sun - nice to let the kids blow off steam

the bar serves aselection of australian craft beers and some of the best gourmet pizzas

food and staff at the bar directly below your room was super nice and professional

wifi didn't work although advertised

first night (a saturday to be fair) there was a lot of noise from live music down in the bar which went on until

us - when we checked in it was very busy in the pub, the staff did not have time to give us the wifi password,

food was fantastic for both dinner and breakfast with great variety and was delicious

breakfast was a little bit of a let down, as unlike dinner, there were hardly any dairy or gluten

food (dinner and breakfast) were plentiful and tasty

the food was not very good at breakfast and lunch

dinner was average and breakfast a little better.

great value for money, location is absolutely excellent, bistro downstairs is great, associated bar next door

very very noisey no good for kids

there was no infomration about accessing the wifi and i need to go back down to reception to inquire

they promptly answered my intercom buzz and welcomed me warmly with details how wifi, breakfast etc

the only thing if i was to get picky was the upload speed on wifi was a bit slow

period style bathroom, tea/ coffee making facilities and bar fridge, and the hotel guest wifi service was faster

not a traditional hotel. no front desk and no traditional hotel amenities like room service.

mini bar, but no room service available and limited options available in the area after

the room was clean enough but room service was random

wifi was good

the gym is well equipped and the pool which i didn't enjoy is big

great location, pool, gym and cocktails

had a spa booking, we were totally mucked about

to $750 for 1 night there with dinner , we werent aloud into blue lounge unless we spent $300 on bar tab which

staff were all extremely helpful from the bar tender and kiosk worker to the valet and check in staff

good pool and gym too

bridge and opera house from the rooms, same view as shown in advertised pictures, fully equipped bar fridge,

limit to the number of devices on wifi is archaic
