Location was very good for tourist type activities, the breakfast was outstanding, the staff were friendly and helpful.

The property charged for the room, we stayed 7 days so a weeks charge, upon arrival as expected but also had a pending charge for the room on my credit card for the same stay that still hasn’t been taken off my credit card two weeks later. To be clear my card was charged for a weeks stay and a pending charge for the same stay is still on my credit card. I asked staff to check this out they said they would and were to email me back. So far no email no lifted pending charge.

We attended a concert near the botanical gardens which finished late. It was 10-15min walk back to the hotel, very conveniently located on Pitt st. Walking distance to Ezymart, plenty of bars and restaurants, Pitt st mall and Martin Place and George st for train and light rail. The room is on the smaller side, clean and cosy. Bed was comfortable with a choice of two pillows. Room service with a great variety food. Breakfast was included: cereal, bakery and hot breakfast. Overall, we were happy with our stay. I would recommend it for its easy check in/out, friendly staff and most importantly, the beds.

I love my full buffet breakfast. I love to wonder through to see what variety hotels have.The Tank Stream has your basic needs for a full stomach, perfect for the get up and go. For me I wasn’t too satisfied.

Close to the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay to catch our cruise ship, approx 10 min walk with luggage. Staff were very friendly on check in. Room was very clean and had everything you needed, including tea, coffee etc with kettle and coffee pod machine and pods. Iron & Ironing board if needed in wardrobe. Bathroom had shampoo, soap etc and very clean. Bar fridge with some drinks available for purchase. The bed was so comfortable and warm was hard to get out of 🤣🤣 Overall very enjoyable stay for the 2 nights we were there.

Despite double pane glass windows, we still heard people leaving bars and walking talking loudly from below early hours of morning.

The room was very comfortable and clean. The staff was very kind and always ready to assist. The location of the hotel is perfect, at a few steps from the main commercial streets of the city center, e.g. St. George Street, and at a walking distance from the Circular Quay and the Opera House.

Breakfast service is very slow. The menu is rich, but you should have breakfast very early in the morning if you really like to get fresh and tasteful bacon and eggs. But, above all, the true problem is to get a good cup of coffee! It is a venture, that in many cases can take about half an hour! You have to make a long queue and very often, at the end, you discover that the coffee machine is not working well .... without considering that the low quality of the coffee. It is a pity, because all the rest in the Hotel is quite perfect!

The hotel was extensively renovated from its office building past in 2015, and is still in very good condition. The room itself was very clean, comfortable, well appointed, and with strong wifi. This was reflected in all the common areas. I didn’t use the bar or restaurant as we were out everyday, so can’t comment. The staff were professional and attentive. All in all, an excellent stay! But it’s the location that’s the winner. Circular Quay (and therefore access to trains, buses and ferries), The Rocks, Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Botanical Garden and the Pitt Street pedestrian Shopping Mall are all just 5-10 minute walk away. Darling Harbour is a 15 minute walk and a further 10 minutes puts you at the Sydney Fish Market near the Pyrmont Bridge. There are multitudes of convenience stores, bars, and coffee shops right outside the door, as is the Martin Place subway station. Highly recommended.

The hotel's location is just 6mins from my company in CBD. The staffs are friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean. Love the breakfast, not too many choice but you could find all needs for a good breakfast.

Only the bars downstairs that opposite the road was opened until around 10.30pm on a Thursday night. The music is pretty loud. And I fortunately stayed in a room just at that side. Good thing is before 11.00pm all music stopped. But if you like some drinks at night, it would be so handy. I travel for business so need sleep earlier that night.

Centrally located, easy to check in/check out, friendly enough staff, room small but was expected as room size is listed on Booking.com, appreciated only having to travel on the elevator to the restaurant, personal choice, but the beds were very comfortable and we found our room quiet. Others have spoken about the noisy pipes but for us this was a non-issue. Will definitely stay for 1 – 2 nights again in the near future.

Small issue with being overcharged for minibar due to non-replenishment after previous Guest. Staff and management attended to my complaint swiftly and professionally. Can’t ask for more than that.

The location was excellent. Only a block from the event that we were in Sydney for. Not far from eateries. Bed was very comfortable. The hotel was very clean and tidy. Staff were very helpful

Air conditioning stopped working on the second night about 10.30pm so room was fairly warm through the night. When we reported it the next morning we were immediately moved to another room. For this we were very thankful. Apparently it was the system on that floor and they had not been able to fix it.

Great location, only minutes from The Pitt Street Mall. The staff are friendly and very obliging. In my opinion, this is more of a boutique style hotel. Smaller, cosier and a bit more personal. We enjoyed our smorgasbord breakfast in a well appointed room. Barrista coffee not included in the price but can be requested.

The room we stayed in was on the small side. Perfect for an overnight stay but if you're staying longer or if you have a lot of luggage I would recommend booking one of the larger rooms.

The buffet breakfast was quite plentiful and good. The location of the hotel was very convenient to the Circular Quay. Easy walking to the Opera House, Sydney Bridge, The Rocks area, all the transportation including the ferries. The tram was 1 block away and inexpensive. Tap a credit card on and off so that was easy.

We were there on a long holiday weekend and the information we were given didn't make it clear that the restaurant would be closed all weekend. Buffet breakfast was served daily but we had to search out other food. Many of the restaurants were closed. The ones on the Wharf were open.
