A first class business hotel sitting as good as underneath the Harbour Bridge!
Its a new conversion of the wharf buildings in what will soon become a key entertainment area of Sydney (the new Sydney Theatre is just up the road, Sydney Theatre Co are virtually next door and there are extensive plans of more conversions of the wharf buildings into restaurants, bars etc..).
As a modern conversion, its everything you would expect - clean lines, lots of glass, chrome, white walls, furnishings and fittings providing the occasional splash of colour. Rooms are huge, comfortable without being ostentatious, with the bathrooms being bigger than some of the hotel rooms I've stayed in London!
Its an efficient, friendly place, although sometimes the emphasis is more on 'style' than welcoming.
You may want to avoid the ground floor rooms. Whilst they have the attraction of having a terrace, the terrace is in real terms part of the public access along the wharf itself.
Its all about location and comfort. Sited on the headland that is Dawson's Bay, the hotel is, as already indicated, virtually under the Harbour Bridge. Its an ideal location if you want a hotel around The Rocks but not right in the thick of things (this may change in time as the area is developed). Its not the best place if you envisage spending time in the Eastern Suburbs (Paddington/ Bondi etc) as you are literally on the other side of the city centre.
WONDERFUL HOTEL BUT LOCATION IS A BIT OFF-PUTTING
