Loved every bit of our stay there very central to Chinatown. The staff were excellent and caring. The rooms were lovely and clean. Will definitely be back.
Close to Darling Harbour yet quiet, with a lovely small park to sit in the sunshine next door. Onsite parking and restaurant add to the mix. Very good value.
