Soldiers Point Marina

Reception staff are fantastic and very friendly. It's centrally located to the CBD, Darling Harbour and a short walk to Chinatown and Paddy's market. The entrance is nice and professional. My only criticism would be that the building is in need of a fresh lick of paint. It's obviously an old building converted into the hotel, and this gives it the lovely period feel, but on fine inspection you start to notice the problems. Things like broken lights, the smell of burnt oil in the kitchen, scuffs, marks, cracks. It's these shortcomings which makes it only a 3 star hotel. If the owner does some light renovations now, it'll easily become 4 star. If left as is and it continues to deteriorate, then it'll slip into a 2 star rating. However, if you like spacious rooms and the central location, you can't go wrong for the price. I'd recommend for the budget conscious and the non-fussy traveller.

The Staff were quite friendly.

The hotel is right across from QVB. The room was as small as you can move around
