Great visit staying at a lovely hotel in the beautiful Potts Point area
Pros:

Great hotel in a fantastic location and we upgraded to a suite with a harbour view. Magnificent at night looking at the harbour, Opera House and Sydney bridge, especially while Vivid was on.

Disappointed
Pros:

I was not impressed with the property
Room was extremely small for the price u pay

Cons:

Did not like that u have the lift straight outside ur room ..bathroom is extremely small and shower small.. if u are on the bigger size u would not be able to take a shower due to the position of the bathroom ..

Overall room is not worth the money u pay .. says in add u get view of harbour bridge .. from the room there was very little view at all .. first 2 photos are the actual view from room and 3rd pic is the view they advertise .. very unhappy customer will not be revisiting this hotel
