The Hotel itself is quite charming in a nice area but the reception service is very poor. They do not say hello or goodbye or have a nice day or anything, they sometimes even don't respond when you great them and I have noticed twice that people were waiting during opening hours and no-one was at the reception.

the cleaning team is very friendly though and helping a lot. Really appreciated.

I had two different reservations but for just one stay.
I was not informed ahead of time that there was no reception after 8pm and had to phone to get a code and then my key. The room had no towels and after a 24 hour travel this was  a very bad surprise. No excuses the next morning just : "are you sure you looked everywhere?" !!!  Plus the first room had a window on a external staircase with spider nets....
I would have expected at least an upgrade for the second stay, I got a smaller room with a better view though. The last 2 days the wifi was not working and the person at the reception were not friendly at all and got upset to any people asking them !

Boutique hotel in prime location- I’ve stayed in an upstairs suite here before , this stay was in an unbelievably small double bed room. As a solo traveller it was odd and concerning staying in the outside located rooms along the side courtyard. The room was a shuffle-past-the-bed size, and a bathroom so small you had to shuffle around the sink to sit on the toilet. The shower was poorly cleaned with too much hair to be reasonable from the last guest. At $160+ it was the cheapest job-shared bathroom stay in Potts point, but the standards had certainly slipped since my last stay. The bed was comfortable and the communal lounge offers tea & coffee for extended hours.

Booked a stay at this hotel for a trip to Sydney. My reservation was confirmed from Wednesday to Tuesday, with a call to the staff beforehand to ensure I could check in a day early due to my flight schedule. This was acknowledged and confirmed multiple times, both over the phone and in writing. Upon arrival after a long flight, I was told my room had been given away because I hadn't checked in earlier. No attempt was made to notify me via phone, email, or text. Meanwhile, my booking remained active on Booking.com.

The staff's attitude was unprofessional and dismissive, forcing me to find alternative accommodations. Eventually, I was offered another room—for an additional $800+—after they had already given away my initial booking. I was also offered the option to return to my original room but only if I checked out halfway through my stay and used a communal bathroom, none of which was part of my initial booking.

There was a complete lack of care, professionalism, and empathy in handling the situation. If I could leave a negative rating, I would.

Excellent Euro-style city hotel. Great location and friendly receptionist. Good value for Potts Point. Minimal facilities which I didn't mind as I felt it contributed to the value. Great cafes and restaurants all around. Be aware rooms cleaned only every second day but I kind of preferred that.

I love this boutique hotel. Stylish, comfortable and perfect location. The room rates are fantastic too. I travel between Sydney and another state often for business and this hotel offers everything I need without breaking the bank. I’ve stayed once and have already booked for my next visit to Sydney. For self funded business travellers this hotel is a great choice!
