Found this cute boutique hotel on booking.com for our first place to stay on our honeymoon!…read more It's well decorated with a friendly staff and in a quaint and convenient location in charming Surrey Hills. There's complimentary breakfast from 6:30AM - 10:30AM or 11AM. They have a little bar called the Honour Bar, which you have a wide selection of goodies to choose from and pay for later. The mister and I booked the Superior King Room Master, which we really loved. It had a big window with a bench, with lots of natural light, plenty of space and a lovely clean bathroom. Shower was perfect, linens were comfy and the rooms are quiet! You can't hear any other guests or noises from your room, guaranteeing maximum relaxation and happiness. To make things even better, we arrived to our room to find a hand written congratulatory note on our marriage, with a bottle of champagne and some cookies. We can't wait to come back!

We last stayed here 15 years ago and we wanted to return someday, and return we did! This hotel is…read morestill magnificent, comfortable, clean, includes amazing service, comes with a full well-equipped kitchen, has a washer and dryer in the room and is spacious and excellent. What's changed is the neighborhood... The central business district used to be well located for site seeing but pretty dead atmosphere wise. Just corporate buildings and workers. Quiet at night and silent on the weekends. Now, it's an amazing hub of activity with residents, coffee shops, restaurant, bars, shops and more plus the corporate buildings. The main drag, George Street, is now pedestrian only and relaxing to walk along. We look forward to returning again somehow, some way, in the future! We already agreed Mantra 2 on Bond Street will be our destination again! I'd like to thank the following employees I met and all of the cleaning staff who are all universally welcoming, friendly, helpful and professional: Niruma, Kartika, Barsha, Gerald from engineering and Nina. Life is good in Sydney!

Two staff serving, I went to the bar area to wait for a friend only to discover bar opens at 4:30pm on a hot summers day mind you! Only to see my friend try and order drinks at the bar where one barman was making fancy cocktails. The wait to be served was over 8 minutes and after that round I asked him if more staff are coming and he said at 5:30pm the line by this stage was out onto the terrace for drinks, I ordered again and he pointed to dockets saying he has a lot of drinks to make. I walked over to reception the line nearly snaking out the main entrance and asked a woman who identified as a manager are more staff coming and she said to get to the back of the line to ask her a question. I've never seen a hotel run like in all my travels, summer, holiday period a tourist precinct and all. A very dated over priced hotel.

I had to book this place last minute due to a travel agent issue but the Ibis came through with value and availability at short notice. Perfectly situated to walk to downtown and along the waterfront to some awesome food along with being a few blocks from the ICC convention center. Went to see a concert (yes, O traveled specifically for the concert) and loved being able to walk back to the hotel after in a safe environment. Highly recommend!!

Pros: Great central location and apartment was a good size…read more Cons: Old and sparse cooking utensils, apartment was tired looking, patio doors do not have proper seals so if you are a light sleeper then this is not the place for you.

I got one of the newer rooms with a front balcony and blissful air-con on a very humid night. Check-in was fine. Service was friendly and efficient. The room and setting were as advertised. After a very quiet and comfortable night's sleep in a great bed, I used the discount voucher provided by reception to grab a light breakfast and coffee at a local cafe and enjoyed it on my balcony overlooking the park below. Reception also provided a voucher for free wifi. Would definitely go back if I needed to be in the neighbourhood. My tip would be walk up to the corner to pick up and drop off taxis as there is rarely any street parking and a double-parked taxi blocks the narrow street, annoying fellow motorists.

It's very close to the eastern beach areas, especially Coogee, which is only a 10-minute bus ride away. Fewer backpackers here, then, and worth the price ($145/night for our room) if you don't need to stumble right out onto a beach. It's location also makes it a short, straight shot to get to the airport the next morning. Staff very friendly and helpful with directions. Room was comfortable. They have fans, and no A/C. But each room has a little kitchenette if you're saving dollars by buying your own food.

Loves to write PH d level dissertation in depth explanation to this globalist in a lovely way of saying NO. She failed @ asst with extended stay issues and then I was charged for in house dinner which I never received and it was breakfast. Which I really didn't need because the food in Sydney is by far superior to USA. And we did over eat. So if I was the professor I would say C++. ( C++ in Grad school is a failure). Us globalist who are loyal to the brand will start looking @ other options. In fact during my morning's jog around the corner ,,,,,,I ran into another high end brand competitor !!!

Not surprisingly, it was unrecognisable except for the lovely timber staircase. I enjoyed my stay here. The staff at reception were pleasant and helpful, and the room (I think it was the 'queen deluxe') was clean, comfortable and well maintained. We had mixed feelings about the location - it's a 10 minute walk away from everything, but if you don't mind walking, it's a convenient but isolated "hub". It's easy to get to Glebe Point Road, Broadway, Central railway station and Darling harbour on foot, but there's nothing right outside the door. It's reasonably priced and I'd stay here again, but it was a bit sad that my old mate Deano no longer lives in his room upstairs.
