My stay at Ovolo Woolloomooloo was quite the experience. The location is fantastic for exploring Sydney, with beautiful walks to nearby attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens. However, the noise from nearby clubs made it difficult to get a good night's sleep on Friday night. While the rooms are spacious and quirky, I found the service didn’t quite meet the expectations set by the hotel's price tag.
Rooms

The rooms were bright and spacious, equipped with comfy beds, complimentary mini bar, and cute travel backpacks. They had a stylish, funky design that stood out compared to typical hotels. However, I did notice some mould in the shower, which was disappointing.
Service

Overall, the service was friendly and warm. The staff went above and beyond, like when they extended my checkout time without charge. However, I felt there were moments that the service was lacking, especially in terms of efficiency during breakfast hours.

The location on Woolloomooloo Wharf is both a gem and a bit inconvenient. It offers great access to historical sights and is close to excellent restaurants. However, nothing was really within immediate walking distance for shopping, and the noise from nearby clubs could be an issue late at night.
Dining

Dining options were available right next to the hotel, including the fantastic China Doll Restaurant. Breakfast was quite basic and had inconsistent start times, which was a bit frustrating, and I felt they could use a bit more variety overall.
Facilities

The hotel has a lovely pool and gym, but access can be a challenge due to elevator issues. The complimentary laundry facilities are a big plus, and I enjoyed the happy hour while waiting for my clothes. The quirky lounge areas added to the charm of the hotel.

My stay at Ovolo Woolloomooloo was a mixed bag. The location, right on the historic wharf, was fantastic and made it easy to explore the surrounding attractions. I also appreciated the free mini-bar and happy hour. However, the overall condition of the facilities left much to be desired; there were signs of wear and tear that detracted from the experience. The service was friendly, but there were moments that felt disorganized.

My stay at Ovolo Woolloomooloo had its highs and lows. The location was simply fabulous, allowing me to easily stroll to the Botanical Gardens and the Opera House. The complimentary minibar and the sweet treats were definitely a highlight. However, the breakfast experience left much to be desired, with confusing arrangements and a lack of variety.

I got a really spacious room with a wonderful view, however, the furnishings felt basic and not luxurious. The high ceilings gave it an open feel, but the old-fashioned AV facilities were a bit disappointing.

The hotel offered great amenities such as a lovely swimming pool and a self-serve laundromat which I found very handy. However, I felt there could be more options in terms of food and breakfast solutions.

I had a great stay at Ovolo Woolloomooloo! The rooms were spacious and beautifully designed, with a magnificent view and all the comforts I needed. Plus, the location was perfect, just a short walk to the city and close to the Botanical Gardens. On the downside, the breakfast buffet could use more protein options, and parking prices were on the higher side. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place!

Situated on Woolloomooloo Wharf, the hotel provided a charming escape from the busy city while being just a 15-minute walk to major attractions like the Opera House. The setting was picturesque, especially during sunset.

While the breakfast spread featured some good pastries and fruit, I felt it lacked enough hearty options like eggs or bacon. Thankfully, staff went the extra mile to surprise us with a bacon service our last morning.
