Great location, Easy transit

The hotel is in the base of Pyrmont, less than five minutes walk from Darling Harbour (cut through the car park slightly towards the bottom of the hill). The light rail and bus lines are also within five minutes walk. Breakfast in the onsite restaurant are phenomenal, and it’s worth trying once even if not included.

Nice place to stay. The air con in the room was terrible. It was set at 30 degrees and could only be changed by telling the front office staff. Made no sense at all. Great coffee, but both out breakfast meals were served cold. Disappointing.
