This boutique hotel was in an excellent location, without the noise of Macleay St. It was gorgeous although compact. The staff were amazingly helpful, always smiling and very attentive with their impeccable customer service. The room and small ensuite bathroom had everything needed for a comfortable night’s sleep with access to so many restaurants in Potts Point. I will definitely stay there again.
