Mostly good, a little glitch
Unfortunately walls were thin and could hear everything in the hall and lifts the whole time. A shame as everything else was very nice with this hotel - loved the look and feel and location was perfect.

Definitely one to revisit
Great location, excellent room and friendly, helpful staff at the front desk. We were able to check in without any delay and all three of the front counter staff who were on duty during our stay were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had great natural light - but sooo quiet, given that we're in the heart of Haymarket. I'm definitely recommending The Ultimo to family and friends looking for a CBD stay.
