Great location, Easy transit

The hotel is in the base of Pyrmont, less than five minutes walk from Darling Harbour (cut through the car park slightly towards the bottom of the hill). The light rail and bus lines are also within five minutes walk. Breakfast in the onsite restaurant are phenomenal, and it’s worth trying once even if not included.

Great intimate hotel with a nice vibe and perfect location for walking. Restaurant was outstanding, staff was very helpful and friendly. My only concern was that there were not really any places dedicated to put suitcases in the room. We had to put them on the floor which was a bit inconvenient, but would not stop me from staying there again - a minor inconvenience.
