We are a family of three (16 year old son). We arrived late after 24+ hours of travel and were welcomed by the hotel's annual Christmas Champagne party for friends and neighbors. Our family room was spacious, clean and quiet. Breakfasts were complementary (great feature) and more than adequate. Both Vanessa and Keith were always helpful with tips, bookings, etc.... more

The Simpsons was our introduction to Australia from the USA and I must say they spoiled us for the rest of our trip! My husband, 18 year old son and I arrived at the Simpsons on Boxing Day around 10am for a five day stay. Keith was ready to greet us. Although check-in is not until mid-afternoon, our room had... more

With Tripadvisor as our guide we booked a ground floor queen room for 3 nights in early December. From the time we arrived to the moment our cab door closed to take us to the airport, Simpsons was absolute perfection. We arrived early in the morning on Sunday to find Vanessa ready to handle all our travel needs. Our luggage... more

A haven of tranquillity in this bustling city, Simpsons hotel is only a 20 minute walk from the centre through the beautiful Royal Botanic Garden. We walked most of the time, but there is also a good bus service to and from Circular Quay when you're tired at the end of a busy day. Our hosts - Keith, Marie and... more

Having spent five nights here a the end of a long holiday, I have to agree with all the reviewers who describe it as a great place to stay. However, rather than the building getting all the praise, it's the team that run it that definitely deserve the five stars. Keith, Marie and Vanessa in particular (although any of the... more

We spent a couple of nights here as a stopover on our way to Melbourne, and felt welcome as soon as we arrived. We turned up early in the morning from the airport and we were able to leave our luggage and make use of the downstairs shower room with towels and toiletries provided, had a cup of tea and... more
