A great place to stay with a wonderful hostess. Our family had a great time with Ree and enjoyed out time in Sydney. The history of Simpsons was particularly of interest to me as my Godmother was John Lane-Mullins grandaughter. We had a wonderful weekend and will definitely will be back again.

A family weekend in Sydney was completely enhanced by our stay at Simpsons. Ree was more than acommdating and extremely pleasant. I was in Room 9, my Daughter and Son in Law up on the second floor. There is a lovely sense of history as you roam around this gorgeous Gallery, complimentary Port or Sherry in hand. There is a... More

What a wonderful stay. My mother had booked two rooms, and we arrived not knowing exactly what we'd find - what a delight! The house was spotless, the breakfast delicious and Ree was accommodating and helpful. The room was spacious and quiet. Can't wait to book another stay.

Stayed here on a whim for a Saturday night in Sydney. When ringing the hotel, they bettered the rate on Wotif, so I splurged on a King room. The room was beautiful and very spacious with a balcony overlooking the quiet street. Bed was super confortable and bathroom (with a bath) was clean. A brisk 30-minute walk through the Botanic...

Excellent stay at Simpsons Hotel at Potts Point. The hotel has a Victorian look, breakfast provided was also really good. Owner Ree was hospitable and accommodating to us. Location is also near to King's Cross Station (about a nice 10-15 mins walk). I enjoyed the stay there

We stayed at Simpson's for two days on our way back to Colorado after a visit with friends in Mooloolaba. I must say I made the right choice. This is a lovely place with a gorgeous sitting area where we could enjoy a drink, use the computer and just relax. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and the bathroom was... More

I spent 5 days on my own here at the end of a long 2 1/2 month trip of a lifetime to New Zealand and Australia. The guest house is ideally situated in a peaceful road at the end of which are some great neighbourhood restaurants and local shops. You are within spitting distance of the harbour, Kings Cross and... More

Thankyou for those kind words. Yes, we do try to help guests see the most of our beautiful City, and the weather at Easter is traditionally the best time to visit. We are glad that you liked the Easter eggs! As I often say, it is our guests that make "Simpsons" such a pleasant place to stay. Most of our... More

We would love to stay again when in Sydney. Location was perfect, so nice not to be in a sterile hotel room. I must also say it was lovely that Ree knew every guests name. The decor of the hotel was beautiful.

Thanks for your Review! Yes, the large chain hotels do have their advantages, with more facilities (swimming-pool, gymnasium, conference rooms, etc), but I agree tat at times it is nice to have a change! We pride ourselves on giving guests a peaceful, friendly stay, in a lovely old mansion house, situated in an interesting area full of great restaurants, cafes... More

Had an enjoyable 3 night stay here in April 2013 and liked the overall quality and quiet ambience of the hotel. Good continental breakfast. The management were particularly helpful regarding access to city and recommending routes to the surrounding islands and bays. Very accommodating regarding storing luggage until late departure time and arranging taxi pickup. Pleasant walk to city centre,... More

Thankyou for this succint and helpful Review. Yes, the Royal Botanic Gardnes are really special, with some interesting wild-flis, and birds, especially the large white cockatoos, with their bright sulpher-coloures crests! We try to visit the Gardens several times a week, as it is a really pleasant way to walk into the City, or down to the Opera House, and... More
