Best place to party. It is the “in” place to be. Everything you need attached to having a great time is in this place. You can see from the queue for its restaurants and bars that this really is the establishment for you. The STAFFmakes this place work. Energetic, polite, efficient and obliging. Made a difference. Loved everything about it.

    Asked about: Deluxe Room • Answered on March 31, 2022
  • We are looking for a suite for my friend’s 50th birthday on NYE. He is in a wheelchair. We would like a room with a view of the fireworks over the Harbour bridge. Do you have something available that meets our criteria?
    Thanks for your enquiry! Our hotel while located in the heart of the CBD is quite small in height and has no views I am sorry. We do have beautiful large rooms though, so if you change your mind about the view, we would love to have you stay! Kind Regards, Felicity Arthur Hotel Manager
