Affordable hotel close to all amenities in the Potts Point and Kings Cross area
Pros:

Great location with views across to Sydney harbor bridge and the Opera house. (room 712)
Woollies supermarket is across the road, and a good choice of restaurants all within walking distance.
A small kitchenette was very handy as well.

Such a comfortable place in a great location - walk to many attractions - and so many food options on your doorstep!
Pros:

Clean and comfortable with magnificent views across the harbour, bridge and opera house. Good kitchen facilities for a short stay. Loved that we could open the window and get fresh air. Great staff.

Cons:

I would suggest a ceiling fan above the bed/s.

Fantastic Location and Stunning Harbour Views
Pros:

I had a great stay at the Macleay Hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The kitchenette was very handy, and we were able to cook our own breakfast each morning, which made the stay even more convenient. The location is excellent, with easy access to public transport, so there's no need for a car. Having a Woolworths directly across the road was perfect for picking up groceries and essentials. The highlight was the beautiful view overlooking Sydney Harbour, including the iconic Sydney Opera House and the city skyline. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sydney.
