we stayed in these apartments over the new year, they are really central on george street, right in the middle of china town, over the road from the mall.  The staff were really good and efficient, tullisa (!) and Nathan assisted with  Numerous enquiries and were professional, even when there was a false fire alarm at 8am in the morning....

We stayed one night 19 December then 4 nights over new year's eve. It was an extremely busy time for the hotel which had a small lobby but the staff handled the crowd quickly and efficiently. They were always polite and very helpful. The first night we had a two bedroom apartment which was quite accommodating for 3 adults and... More

we stayed for a week in this bustling complex of apartments. The lifts were a bit slow and were often busy but our room was more than adaquate for our purpose. We found the fridge and kettle etc most useful and could have cooked had we wanted to. We also had a small balcony which allowed us to step outside... More

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights. We had a fabulous time. The hotel is in a great location, so easy to get to places. Dixon Street just a street away, if you like chinese food its definitely the place to go and cheap! Entertainment centre and paddy's markets all a short stroll away. Buses to take you anywhere...

Avoid this place like the plague, I was attacked by bed bugs and when I complained all I got was a half hearted sorry and nothing else. I have over 50 bites on me which are still red and itchy days later. Disgusting hygiene. More

I am naturally disappointed to read your comments and to hear that you still had complications days after leaving our hotel. It was definitely our intension to follow up with you after we have checked the room, but unfortunately, due to the quick check out your required, it wasn’t until later that we realised we had no contact details listed...

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights. The apartment was clean, comfortable and perfectly located for exploring the main sights of Sydney. The reception staff were friendly and approachable at all times. The room was large and there was sufficient space for cooking. Sadly our stay was tainted by the huge cost of staying here.

Enjoyed the great location but was disappointed at their over the top Internet charges. When you're paying over $400 per night, you don't want to pay an extra $25 per day for Internet. Just feels like a rip-off when it's 30 times what you pay at home. And why do so many hotels charge $16 for a movie when they... More
