Stayed here twice in the last month and loved it! Super convenient location above Wynyard station. Understated but sophisticated design throughout. Rooms are compact but have everything you need. It’s super clean, sleek, and modern. Staff are very friendly and personable, thank you. Absolute highlight is the private access rooftop for hotel guests.

We loved the view from our bedroom and the comfort of the room. The food we ordered to the room arrived quickly and was delicious. We did not eat breakfast at the hotel because 60 AUD per person seemed too much to pay for breakfast. The location was great, close to the harbour and with lots of places to eat in.

Seen a few reviews say it’s a bad place to stay, it’s not worth money. But I had a lovely stay here, yes it is all online and there’s no reception but there’s a number to call if you do need help and there’s 24/7 surveillance for safety! I love the fact there’s cameras that operate, there’s codes to get in and it’s in a nice location not too far from shops and not too far from the city!
