Great location and comfy rooms.
Pros:

The location was fantastic and the rooms were comfortable.

Cons:

The gym was poorly set up. No loose weights. The breakfast was also below standard and not appetizing. Cigarette smell came wafting through the airconditioning.

Pros:

Sehr gutes Frühstück, da ist für jeden - und für jeden Kulturkreis - etwas dabei. Aufgrund von Flugausfällen mussten wir kurzfristig das Zimmer verlängern, was absolut kein Problem war. Neuer Zugangscode auf die Karte, fertig. Die Lage des Hotels ist bestens, vom Flughafen Sydneys in 20 Minuten zu erreichen und es liegt ja quasi Mitten im Zentrum - mit drei Straßenbahnlinien vor der Tür. Zum Circular Quay und zum Opernhaus läuft man ca. 20 bis 25 Minuten.
