Wonderful Stay with Harbor Views!

harbor viewfitness roomwell-appointed barsattentive service
The room included a nice view of Darling Harbour. The fitness room offered a great space for workouts. I especially liked it. The bars are on the hotel, and I found them to be well-appointed. I appreciated the staff's attentive service throughout my visit.
The breakfast buffet's hot food could have been kept at a warmer temperature. The bacon was not crisp enough for my liking.
