    It's a funky place with an old vintage style elevator that takes you through the resto and bar up to the rooms on the top 2 floors. Fun for young people or if you're a solo traveller looking to meet folks. When we arrived, the door was locked and we had to get the bartender to let us in. The check-in process was confusing and I didn't love that there wasn't a dedicated staff at the front desk at all times. It's also pretty loud due to the resto and bar in the building.

    The location is incredible and the heritage building gives the hotel a lot of character

    I was in a two story room! I loved it so much. It was very quirky and such a great location. It was noisy in the bar because of burger Wednesday, but I couldn't hear anything in the room. Our niece was in a separate room, but not too far from us. Loved it a lot.

    Good location Old building and it was dirty everywhere, check in was late as they had not cleaned the room, dilapidated, musky smell everywhere. Very basic and expensive for what I got.

  • Engine customer May 2025

    Great location. Noisy from downstairs bar, even on Monday night, bar staff apologised “ they forgot to turn the speakers in the upstairs space off”. The rooms are ok for an overnight leisure stay but not fit for purpose for work travel, nowhere to hang clothes, no storage. Would not stay again.

    Great location. Lovely pub beneath. Friendly staff. Very good value. Could be cleaner, bathroom had some loose fixtures. Grout needed bleaching it had blackened in places.

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    Misleading photos, space was so little and for the price they charge, you would hope there is exhaust in the toilet (which didnt have a door) or exhaust in the room.

    The only redeeming aspects of our stay were the lovely staff, the nice bar, and the good food. However, these positives do not make up for the poor quality of the rooms and the overall lack of maintenance. Would never stay here again and certainly wouldn’t recommend it. Giving it 2 stars at best. We booked a “Superior Suite” at this hotel, which was advertised as one of the largest rooms in Sydney (550m²). However, when we checked in, we were extremely disappointed. The room was nothing like the photos—it was small, outdated, and had a strong damp smell. It felt completely run-down and neglected rather than “superior.” After complaining, the staff did try to assist by moving us to another room. While this second room was slightly better, it was still far from what we had expected. Unfortunately, our stay went from bad to worse when we were woken in the middle of the night by water leaking through the ceiling. It had been raining outside, but we were not even on the top floor, so it’s unclear what caused the leak. To make matters worse, when we were leaving, we noticed water also leaking through the ceiling in the hallway.

    Superb

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    The staff were great, our room was quiet and we did not hear any noise at night , even though we stayed near Mardi Gras. The room was very small, there was no mirror in the bathroom and no storage, and the hot water in the shower takes a long time to come on.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Fabulous location and comfortable room Decor is looking a little tired, and it was quite expensive

  • Engine customer Mar 2025
