Хороший завтрак с 7:00 до 10:30. Подаётся на первом этаже в самом старом пабе Сиднея. Расположение в самом центре всего, пешая доступность. Кстати из аэропорта на Uber цена и время в пути примерно как общественным транспортом, но зато никакой суеты. Отель 1887 года, стильный интерьер и экстерьер. Отличный шампунь и крем для тела в ванной. Но зубной щётки и пасты нет :) есть общественная прачечная и прикольное место на крыше где можно выпить и покурить с видом на город. Рядом есть место с отличным мясом кенгуру - Pony Dining The Rocks. По пятницам, субботам и воскресеньям проводят бесплатные экскурсии в Government Hous - первая в 10:30 утра. Кровать маленькая, вдвоем было тесно. Вытяжка работает в ванной всю ночь, гудит, мешает спать. Утром запахло едой, видимо вытяжка из кухни где то под окнами. Кондиционера нет - ночью было жарко и душно. Окна тоже особо не откроешь, сеток на них нет, а вот мухи на улице есть.

The Russell Boutique Hotel went through renovations in recent months and it shows nicely. The real standout was the excellent staff led by Val. My initial reservations about the location were replaced with delight as everyone made my short stay a pleasant and welcoming experience. Be aware that some rooms have a shared bathroom. The restaurant downstairs was convenient and the service was prompt and friendly. I enjoyed my meal and slept well. In the morning, May, the night staff, helped me log my luggage to the front for my Uber pickup. She was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area. I would stay there again.

Best location and a lovely hotel This hotel is in a fabulous location in the Rocks and access to many attractions USA bonus. Lovely hotel but lots of stairs and managing luggage is difficult so next time I will use a backpack.

The building has been so beautifully renovated with careful attention to every detail. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the staff warm and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. The location cannot be beaten. Loved every aspect of our stay.

Great spot with excellent breakfast and attentive staff. Only drawback was that our room door was not very soundproof so we heard everything that went on in the hallway but would definitely stay here again
