Hmmmm...

The hotel is a bit quirky and interesting but there are certain practical issues that need improvement. The lighting, water pressure and access inside the rooms are less than ideal lacking. But Deepa made up for any ill feelings with her lovely manner and the excellent breakfast also helped.

We recently stayed in a Double Double room at Ovolo Woolloomooloo and had a mixed experience. The room itself is that’s lounging on the daybed or using the dining table. The bathroom was a great size with a very cool design, but the lighting left much to be desired. It’s definitely not where you’d want to be doing your makeup, and in fact, the general lighting in the room could use an upgrade or more fixtures overall. On the plus side, there is a full-length mirror, which is surprisingly rare in many hotels and very much appreciated. The beds and pillows, however, were not particularly comfortable, which was a little disappointing. The view from our room was nice, and I loved the shutters and door that allowed fresh air in, but being on the road end of the building was less ideal. If you stay, I’d recommend requesting a room further down the building for a more pleasant outlook. As a smaller hotel, room service ends at 10pm. Unfortunately, we came back after an event to find no food available. While Uber Eats filled the gap, it would be great if Ovolo offered even a limited late-night menu. The staff were consistently polite and made both check-in and check-out smooth and easy. Breakfast had a solid variety of hot and cold foods, pastries, and the option to order extras directly, which was a nice touch. My biggest frustration of the stay was the valet parking. At $95, I expected secure, undercover parking. Instead, cars a

The hotel was beautiful, but the common areas were open to the outside and cold. Lovely room, but the water pressure in the shower was very low. No free upgrade was offered. I was told one free bottle of wine per night with my VIP status. But I was given one cheap bottle of wine the first night and that was it - the wine was of such poor quality we did not ask for more. The staff was friendly and professional.

This is NOT a five star hotel. Stayed in both their highest end room, Ultraroo and loft. The furniture is so stained that I would not sit on it. The rugs are also stained in the floor, head, dust, bunnies, and trash that I wouldn’t walk on it barefoot. There was a used fork on the counter, and the counter and desk were sticky. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and kind. Breakfast was good, but never changed. This place is overpriced for the accommodations. Furniture and rugs need updating and the cleaning crew needs retraining.
