Top star General.
Booked because I wanted a non-chain hotel. The General Gordon packs a lot of charm and service into its walls. Sydenham train station is directly across the street, and it was a direct line to Circular Quay - just a great location. Quiet residential street otherwise. I would stay again and again if ever back in Sydney.
Taken from corner of train station opposite the hotel.
