“I will definitely come back again”
Really great location, about 15 minute walk to the botanical gardens and 25 from the opera house, it’s old building with a lot of history and a nice bar downstairs. Got absolutely drenched in the rain on my last day, and went to pick up my bag for my flight late at night and the team very kindly let me use the bathroom to dry up and change, very nice team and comfortable stay.

“Comfortable and welcoming.”
It was close to the CBD and to nearby cafes and shops. It was also very convenient to get something to eat downstairs from the kitchen bar.

“I love this place, we walk everywhere for days when we stay and enjoy a comfortable bed and great atmosphere in the even”
We return each year, Sam has maintained a beautiful little gem, minutes from domain, oxford street, Hyde park and circular quay. Always has a bit of night life but settles down given located in leafy suburb of Woolloomooloo. Love this place and great value for money. Has its own bistro with great food.
