"Excellent staff. The receptionist upgraded our twin room to a Queens double bedroom free of charge. We didn’t even request it! Comfortable hotel rooms and bed. Excellent full range buffet breakfast including full English hot breakfast items. All breakfast items consistently replenished. Location only 30 mins walk from Sydney harbour that contains the Opera house, harbour bridge and botanical gardens."
