    House keeping every second day meaning no housekeeping if you stay for 2 nights, not a dealbreaker but would have been nice

    Great location and very nice hotel

    Nothing

    In a beautiful area of Potts point. So easy to get to, close to the bus, ten minute walk from the train station. Free coffee and snacks in the lobby. Very clean and looked after.

    10/10 for location and staff, bedding comfort level needs work.
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Queen Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Room location (208) was placed oddly between service closets which at times was a little noisy. Bed was uncomfortable, mattress was so soft that you sank into it, which in theory should be lovely, BUT coupled with hugely luxurious pillows resulted me sleeping in a 'U' shape. So 10 points for trying to make the bed comfortable, but sadly a fail.

    Hotel is beautiful, very clean with lovely helpful staff. I also love the smell of the cleaning products! The location of this hotel is brilliant, easily accessible by bus and short walk to railway station. The restaurants and vibe around this location are some of the best in Sydney.

    Amazing hotel in a very nice neighbourhood. Close to different restaurants, easy access even after hours. Nice clean and tidy room, with amenities for coffee and tea. Exceptional for a short stay or even if your plan is just to visit the city and get back to a nice and comfy bed.

    Another great stay at Hotel Challis.

    There is some noise from the hallway when doors open and close, although this would not put me off staying there again. Use earplugs if you are sensitive to noise.

    Hotel Challis is housed in a pair of beautiful Italianate terrace houses and provides clean and comfortable accommodation in an excellent location (Potts Point) at a relatively affordable price. Some of Sydney's best restaurants are within a 2-3 minute walk from the hotel. My queen room even had a view of the city.

    The rooms are small- big enough for the bed and bathroom. I wasn’t hanging in my room so this was not an issue for me.

    It is in a beautiful old building and a great location. The rooms are small but comfortable.

    The staff never greeted us as we walked in or out. They also never explained that when you purchase parking, you can only leave the car park once per day which was a bit unexpected.

    The place and room was beautiful. Such a prime location as well.

    I’ve stayed twice before and it’s been so quiet I forgot I was in the city. This time there was a knocking/rattle sound all night. I just decided it was ghosts but it made sleep more challenging.
