The last hotel in Sydney, it was better than expected, upgraded to Mario Suite. Full of design, the living room is very good. The bathroom is excellent, there is a capsule coffee machine with milk. Tea bag T2, which helps sleep. There is a Chinese restaurant in the street next to it, with traditional decoration and lanterns hanging high.

I rarely write hotel reviews, but the Old Clare Hotel is a hotel that I am very satisfied with. From the location to the hotel facilities to the service and cost-effectiveness, I think it is a particularly good experience. If I go to Sydney next time, I will choose here again. Location: Located in the center of Sydney, there is a very distinctive small street below, which is very lively on weekend nights. It takes less than three minutes to walk to the supermarket and ww supermarket, which is also very convenient for buying some supplies. It only takes 5 minutes to walk to the bus Environment: It is an old building that has been transformed. While retaining the characteristics of its original historical buildings, the room facilities will not feel old at all, but it feels very distinctive. Service: It can be said that I am very very very very satisfied. Whether I checked in on the first day or checked out on the last day. The front desk received us very well. We arrived in Sydney at six o'clock in the morning on the first day, and we were allowed to check in early to wash up. On the last day, I lost my opal card in the hotel, and the front desk staff also helped me find it. Thank you very much!
