The hotel is in a super convenient location, close to everything you need like restaurants and the harbor. The rooms are spacious and modern with a slightly stuffy feel due to no fresh air on level 21. The team members are welcoming and even served us champagne during check-in. However, be prepared for some noise from nearby nightclubs with loud bass all night long.

The hotel offers a stunning harbour view from level 21, but unfortunately, fresh air is not easily accessible. The service was impeccable with a thoughtful gesture of champagne while checking in. The location in Darling Harbour is convenient for families with a nearby kids' playground, but it can get noisy due to loud nightclubs. The dining experience includes authentic dishes, although it comes at an additional cost. Overall, a mixed experience with notable highlights and some drawbacks.
