    The location was absolutely perfect and nice, within a close distance from Event. It was located in a central area not far from the main "Central" train station which is great for getting to-and-from airport. - A super-convenient location less than 1 minute's walk from Central station, Sydney.

    reasonably priced hotel in a nice old historic style building. good meals. comfortable location next to platform 23 which is 3 stops from the airport and shops and attractions, walking distance to restaurants and pubs. besides, easy to get to prince alfred park.

    Beds were a bit hard.

    The view from deluxe king room was great. It had very central location close to Prince Alfred Park🙂❤

    Some people working there were very rude.

    The hotel was very easy to find, conveniently located and easy to check into. The room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Checkout was also very convenient. We ate lunch at the bistro and were very pleased with the quality and price of the meals. We would definitely stay at the Royal Exhibition again and have already recommended the hotel to friends who are seeing a show in the city.

    Location-right next to Central Station ideal for quick access to the airport and Sydney cricket ground for afl. Meals/bar good value for money. Room huge, staff excellent, allowing me to remain in the hotel after checkout to avoid awful Sydney weather before going to the footy.

    Nothing - very enjoyable experience. I wish I had found this hotel years ago. Will definitely stay here again when in Sydney for footy or other leisure trips.
