The location is brilliant, as the price was quite low but the room was much better than I thought. Most importantly, the staff was very helpful.

Value and location. Public transport at the door almost

This beautiful old hotel has been maintained in pristine condition. The architecture was beautiful to look at and the room was very well equipped, with towels and shower facilities. An iron and Ironing board was included. The lifts were very fast and the staff were always very helpful and smiled at us on each occasion. Thank you Great Southern for the well equipped rooms. We appreciated the high standards and the comforts provided.

Room space has everything needed for short stays, and nice furbished. Showers are a generous size and hot water is very good.

Was able to check in at 12pm, which was really handy after arriving by a long air trip. Had air con, fast lifts

Proximity to Central Station, cost effective, an adequate and friendly hotel.

The. Hotel was clean and the staff where friendly. The hotel was central to transport.

Great location, great value, clean and nicely renovated maintaining historical charm.

Location, the buildings history and old photos. Staff were friendly. Able to dine and drink at the bar. Food at the pub was great, cocktails were good. Room was clean and tidy. Overall a fabulous place to stay, we ve been before and will definitely come back again!

A great example of the Art Deco style of building; beautifully restored and very well maintained. A most pleasing ambience. A good restaurant offering dinner and lunch but, sadly, not breakfast at this time. The associated pub has a good vibe and a well-stocked bar. My bedroom was spacious and comfortable and the splendid en-suite boasted a wonderful shower. Maybe all rooms are equally as good! Its proximity to Central Station, Darling Harbour, Chinatown and two light rail lines is a special bonus.
