"A lovely oldfashioned hotel sits above a historic pub, the Fortune of War."
Time Out
"With a great location in the middle of the Rocks... the Russell still somehow manages to feel more like a cosy country B&B than a city-centre hotel."

"A small hotel with popular shared-bathroom rooms, plus en-suite options; the priciest have views of Circular Quay."

"This is the only backpacker hostel in The Rocks. There are great views from the roof terrace, where you can take in the sunset over the harbour as you eat at the picnic tables."
