Fodor's "For charm, character, and central location, it's hard to beat this ornate Victorian hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "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." Full review
Rough Guide "A small hotel with popular shared-bathroom rooms, plus en-suite options; the priciest have views of Circular Quay."

"Built in 1836, this boutique sandstone pub has a tidy set of upstairs rooms with exposed stone walls and dormer windows." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Get a taste of Colonial Sydney in the pretty rooms at this famous sandstone pub. The accommodation includes modern necessities such as dataports. Breakfast is included."
Time Out "This old pub has kept up with the times – and the craft beer trend. The on-site brewery trades seven gorgeous gulps to serve every permutation of palate." Full review

"Colonial-style B&B in a historic pub with 10 cosy, variably priced rooms: best is the corner room with views of Argyle St."
Fodor's "If your idea of heaven is sleeping above a pub that brews its own boutique beers (or ales, as they're rightly called) then this is the place." Full review
Frommer's "It's an attractive, three-story sandstone building with a busy pub on the ground floor, a good brasserie on the second, and hotel accommodations on the third." Full review
