This is truly a five-star experience. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Sydney, near iconic landmarks. My room was fantastic, offering a breathtaking full view of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. The food was excellent, and the staff was amazing, providing top-notch service. The hotel’s modern design and luxurious atmosphere made my stay even more special. I also appreciated the complimentary snacks and a bottle of wine - a wonderful touch! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Sydney.

    For a 5 stars hotel it was horrible experience, parking was a hassle, they don’t have valet service you have to park in a wilson parking across the road and come back walking, cross the busy road, no pedestrian crossing nor pedestrian lights, overall it was very bad experience
