Comfortable city stay in good location
Lovely old building. Small double room & bed *is* small but clean, comfortable and well-appointed with a window that opens as well as aircon. Probably not the room for a standard Aussie couple, one of whom is male, as the bed is foreshortened by a cushioned bedhead. Friendly staff, nice front lounge. Well-priced and located. My only complaint was lack of hot water on the day of departure. Bring a plug for your phone charger.

Great hotel. Gorgeous inside and out. The staff very accommodating. Exceptional value for money. Eat nearby at Fei Jai, excellent Asian food. It would have been nice to be able to access the coffee making facilities before 8am. Make sure you take a morning break walk to wards the Opera House. Would definitely book again.

Hotel Challis is a jewel. I love the area of Potts Point which has fantastic access to transit and to the city centre and pretty shops. Excellent coffee with exceptionally friendly service at La Bomba just around the corner. The bed was very comfortable and the room was small but had everything my husband and I needed. Highly recommended.
