We were very happy with the location of this hotel. We stayed for four nights and then again for an additional night. The first stay was on a lower floor the second on a higher floor. Both rooms had a view of the Chinese Gardens. On the lower floor traffic noise from the highway was a bit more prevalent. I... More

Easy walk from Central station or light rail practically to the door. Greeted with early check in. Paid extra to upgrade to room with free WiFi and 'access to executive room'. Great we thought, having used such facilities in other Novotel properties. What a joke. Very 'Fawlty Towers'. Broker cupboards, disease ridden old slow computers, no glasses to drink the... More

An excellent motel, good service and a great location. Close to rail, light rail and mono rail. Buses to any where and most parts of the city are easily walkable. I love the proximity to the markets and the food around China Town. More

Just spent 2 nights at this Hotel. We got a great rate on Wotif so wasn't expecting too much. We had a quick easy check-in. Staff were young and friendly. Our room was a good size, clean and it overlooked the Chinese Gardens on level 3. There was a little road noise but not enough to bother us. We slept... More

It would appear smokers have quite a few rights in a non smoking hotel. To be woken up by people smoking in the corridore every night for the first week is unacceptable. Staff were concerned but they seemed powerless to do anything again not good enough. My continued requests for something rarely received any action at all. Even when I... More

We have stayed in several Sydney locations and have found this one to be the best for us as holiday makers - walking distance to the CBD, Darling Harbour, theatres, Chinatown,Central Station, Glebe markets, etc. The rooms and general facilities are good, although looking the two years older since last time we stayed. The air conditioning fan was also a... More
