Clean and convenient hotel

The room appears clean but is quite small. No hangers or place to hang clothing. Bathroom trash can is too small and probably better without the swinging lid. I wish the outlet plug is not over the toilet. It seems so unsanitary for cords to touch the toilet. The front desk is always very professional. The place is very convenient and accessible to public transportation.

Early Arrival & the 5 Star Service begun 👏👏👏

To be greeted by Duty Manager Thomas at 08:30 with a welcoming smile was just what we needed after a long flight, not expecting to check in but Thomas apologised not being able to to check us in due to a Full House the previous night which we totally understandable Thomas kindly offered to look after are luggage after we had a rest in the lounge area & to stay as long as was need When we were returned later in the day again a warm greeting from Team members Will & PuPut Was impressed with Alex Kiwi Mereana Finally thanks to the Breakfast Crew We would have no hesitation in recommending The Capitol & look forward to retuning on our next visit to Sydney Location, Quietness Safety also help to give it 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️ +

Such a perfect spot if seeing a show and traveling a long way from home! We were concerned we wouldn’t get parking but managed to get a spot. The security was good being in such a busy spot in the city, I felt safe. The Hotels aesthetic is gorgeous, moody and dramatic - perfect for next to the theatre.

Good hotel for basic needs and very good for travelling around with a nearby tram to go to the Docklands, Royal Opera House/Sydney Bridge. Central Train Station is very close which is useful for travelling to the blue mountains.

A lovely hotel and the staff were wonderful, but for the price I feel it is missing some basics like tissues available in the room, more gluten free options at breakfast etc

Well situated just a stones throw from the Capitol Theatre which is the reason for choosing this place. Room is small but has all you need for a Short stay. Breakfast was included in our stay but lacked consideration for any plant based or dairy free guests. Otherwise it was a fuss-free stay

Great hotel in a fantastic location

Fantastic boutique hotel located very centrally in Haymarket close to both the the L1 and L2/L3 tram lines, walking distance from Sydney Central Station, next to the Capitol Theatre, and with easy access to all sorts of things to see and do. Service was top notch from all the staff I met, they were happy to receive a couple of packages for me to enable some travel convenience.

We stayed to see a show at the theatre and was a great location. Brekky was basic but very adequate. A bit odd the elevators don’t go from carpark to reception.

Great location, the only reason for not giving an excellent rating was the age of the facility and the room we had was very small. The room was clean, it was quiet. It was right next door to the Capitol Theatre which was fabulous. We would stay here again if we were down for a night to watch a show.

Great location!!! A posh hotel with no frills. Everything you need, nothing you dont. Rooms are small...if you're travelling with a companion, I recommend going for the larger room. Highly recommend this hotel!!!
