What a great place.
The location was ideal if you want to get away from the busy business district but stay close enough to the harbor and opera house. Plenty of restaurants around and other locations to visit, all within walking distance.
The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating.
I would definitely stay here again when visiting Sydney.
The hotel was one of the most unique hotels I have ever stayed at. The
Reception Center was extremely accommodating and helpful. The only suggestion I have for improving is more large bite menu choices

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Little dirty but still a good stay
Apart from the skirting in the room being dirty and a fair few stains on the carpets and lounges I enjoyed the stay.
Very cool hotel otherwise and good location. Cocktails in the bar were amazing.
Stay was 2 nights. Staff were professional, friendly and very helpful. Vibrant property and area but our room (loft) was quiet. Great location, Botanical Gardens, Opera House, Harbour Bridge and CBD within walking distance. Bus stop close by for public transport. Easy 20 min Uber to airport. Would stay again and try a different style of room.
We thought this was a fab hotel, quirky in style but was well maintained. Great use of an old warehouse and well designed rooms. We had a King suite which was very spacious with the option of bath and shower.
Breakfast is buffet style which suited us, you pay extra for bacon, eggs etc.
Bar is well stocked but is not open past 10pm.
The area of Woolloomooloo is ideal for food and drink, easy walking through botanical gardens to Sydney Opera house and more.
Downside to hotel is states a free mini bar this has stopped, they do stock your bar and room with goodies but you are not aware of what each item
Costs, ideally they need a price menu.
Another good point was free washing available in the laundry room ideal for those like us travelling around with limited clothing.
We would stay here again, Thank you Ovolo
