"Converted from a nineteenthcentury hotel, this award-winning hostel has light, spacious rooms, dorms (4-, 6- and 12-bed) and an attached guesthouse with private rooms."
Lonely Planet
Top Choice
"It doesn’t look like much externally, but this converted pub (the old Orient Hotel) strikes the right balance between party and placid. There are spacious dorms and an additional no-frills guesthouse."

Time Out
"This swish, five-star boutique hotel has become the preferred choice of visiting rock stars and celebrities...the hotel even smells luxurious -it has a custom made “signature scent” inspired by Chanel."

Time Out tip: Head to the Hennessy rooftop bar (named for the original architect of the 1930s heritage listed building, not the cognac beloved by hip-hop stars) and try a Honey Trap Cocktail – it's made with honey collected from the hotel's own rooftop hives of Ligurian bees.
Lonely Planet
Top choice
"It's a fabulous fit-out, with myriad bars, eateries and smiling, good-looking staff all over the place."
