We stayed here the night before our cruise. The room was comfortable and quiet and staff very friendly. Breakfast arrived at the requested time and was of good quality and quantity. Hotel is very close to Circular Quay (5 minutes walk) where there is an abundance of restaurants and bars. Would recommend to anyone.
