"The staff were fantastic, efficient, attentive and helpful. The suite was comfortable, spacious and luminous. Nevertheless, the room needed a bit details in the dusty cleaning department, for ex the nightstand and lamp´s bases were dusty. Also if this is a 5 star hotel, where´s the SPA? It needed a SPA. Besides that, the hotel is in the perfect location to move around Sydney easily. When I am back in Sydney I will stay here again for sure. Five starts to the Reception´s staff. "
