Great place to stay. Room 202 had issues with the basin plug getting stuck when closed. This was fixed. The shower door didn’t close properly so the floor was sodden after each use. This was not fixed despite a two night stay

Great hotel. Gorgeous inside and out. The staff very accommodating. Exceptional value for money. Eat nearby at Fei Jai, excellent Asian food. It would have been nice to be able to access the coffee making facilities before 8am. Make sure you take a morning break walk to wards the Opera House. Would definitely book again.

Hotel Challis is a jewel. I love the area of Potts Point which has fantastic access to transit and to the city centre and pretty shops. Excellent coffee with exceptionally friendly service at La Bomba just around the corner. The bed was very comfortable and the room was small but had everything my husband and I needed. Highly recommended.
