Very cosy little hotel.
Cozy little hotel in a nice location.
Breakfast was very "light" but the small offering was good!
Tiny bit of noise from bar.
Very comfortable room that was suprisingly spacious.
Recommended. Would stay again.

Nice hotel and good service
Excellent staff and roof-top bar, nice ground floor bar, and good complimentary breakfast. If you like walking, your are at 20-25 minutes from everywhere in downtown Sydney.

Clean, nice room! Was concerned the bar on the ground level and the bar on the roof would make it hard to sleep, but they stopped the music at a reasonable hour. Would stay again.

The hotel is quite unique and in a great location. Our room was lovely and the Nespresso coffee machine a very welcome surprise. The breakfast was also very good. There are a lot of stairs in this hotel so it may not be suitable for some. The rooftop restaurant was cool but we really enjoyed the pub.

I loved the location and the atmosphere. I particularly loved the library - breakfast there in the morning was such a great way to start the day. The fact that there's no lift/elevator is the one thing that could be a negative for travelers.

This place is nicely done out. There is a gorgeous rooftop bar but we couldn’t go because there was a private function.
I was suprised to find this was a pub and it is out of the main tourist sydney district.
