Great location if you can handle the noise!!
Pros:

Loved the location and great how it connects through to the bar. Nice design and good sized rooms

Cons:

This place is so so noisy, and I don't just mean from other rooms. I mean throughout the night garbage trucks, bars and pubs, construction works. Alllll through the night, it did not stop right through until when the next work day started. The hotel provides earplugs but I've never stayed at such a noisy hotel, and how it's a 5 star hotel I have no idea

Great central location for Sydney Marathon.
Pros:

Lovely decor, central location, amazing bars.
Plunger coffee in room a lovely touch.

Cons:

The most noisy place I have ever stayed! Could hear all our neighbors activities as if they were in our room! Significant bar noise. Ear plugs provided, but tricky if you are woken from asleep.
