Lovely Boutique Hotel. Walking distance to the Light Rail. Located on the edge of Chinatown. Continental breakfast more than sufficient though only specialty coffees (for a price) and instant coffee availabe.

It’s not a Hilton, and you get what you pay for, which isn’t bad in this case. My only complaint is that they don’t clean the rooms by default, you have to ask for it

Beautiful accomodation to stay at in Sydney, a friend and I flew in for a training course for the weekend and were welcomed with a huge smile from Lupita at reception. The lovely atmosphere of the hotel, where the staff were very accommodating and full of local information, nothing was a bother to them. Thanks so much, we enjoyed our stay. A big shout out to Lupita your smile each day, made our day. Thanks so much! See you next time.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
The Vulcan Hotel has an excellent location, which is a definite advantage. However, in my experience, it doesn’t quite live up to its four-star rating. While I’m not entirely familiar with the criteria for such ratings, as a frequent traveler, I find this hotel falls short compared to other four-star properties I’ve stayed at. Although the staff were friendly and helpful, the room I stayed in had several issues, including a musty smell, poor ventilation, and an overall damp feeling.
