Hotel Woolstore 1888 is often praised for its location in Pyrmont, a short walk to Darling Harbour and a quick tram ride to the city. Guests appreciate the spacious and well-maintained rooms, some of which feature complimentary drinks. The building's original features, such as exposed bricks and wooden beams, create a charming atmosphere; however, a few guests have noted that some rooms have limited natural light due to their window orientation. Many recommend dining at Mister Percy, especially enjoying the unique breakfast options.

i checked in and the complimentary refreshments in the room were a total treat (especially after my journey!). the hotel retained many of its original features, a fantastic nod to its history.
the air conditioning made a slight whirring noise at night, a little distracting.

lack of lightmalfunctioning air conditioning
My room, a superior king room, was smaller than i expected. i found the lack of natural light problematic. The window faced an internal shaft. the air conditioning unit seemed to have a mind of its own and i could not adjust it correctly. these issues detracted significantly from the overall experience.

the room i stayed in had no view i could only see the walls of adjacent buildings i suspect a car park and other hotels fill the surrounding area i didn't find it too bothersome.
