This is a lovely, old B& B with much character. The hosts are gracious, friendly and helpful. The front room (room where you can relax, read, etc) is tastefully decorated suited to the age of the house. Music for relaxation is piped into this room. The breakfast provides a good range of healthy options. This is a self service (except for coffee and tea) breakfast. While hard boiled eggs are available, I would have appreciated being served something other than self serve - e.g. pancakes or choice eggs The rooms (we stayed in 2 different rooms) are not as tastefully decorated like the reception room. While the furniture is adequate, it would be nice if there were a few pieces that reflected the charm of this old house. This is an old house but some of the maintenance has not been kept up. Taps drip. The caulking in tub and shower is missing in spots and black in others. This should not have any impact on your stay but I thought knowing this in advance may help you with your choice There are pluses and negatives about the location. This is a quiet location out of the downtown area. Dining is very close and you have a wide range of choices. You can also choose from a wide range of takeouts. I recommend that you are good at walking if you stay here or be prepared to take taxis. It takes 30 - 40 minutes to walk to the quay and opera house. Coming back, you have to climb 106 steps. We took a taxi a couple of time (about $16 per trip)

Hello Mike ! Thankyou for your thoughtful and candid Review. Glad that you enjoyed your stay with us, and our complimentary, healthy breakfast buffet. For those that need a hot breakfast, there are three cafes within a few hundred metres that offer that choice, including the bacon and egg style. Yes, Potts Point is a great neighbourhood, only 20-mins. stroll to the city, or a little longer to the Opera House or the Rocks. Yes, Mike is correct, there are many restaurants and cafes within a short stroll. And yes, our dear old mansion House (130-years old next year,) does need constant maintenance, but she hopes that folks will forgive her the odd paint chip and squeaky floorboard in return for her charm and warm hospitality.

The Simpson is located in a quiet street in Potts Point and has an elegance about it that cant be found in a modern hotel. The decor is superbly interesting and my room and bed were perfectly comfortable. The care and hospitality extended by Keith was quite refreshing and the breakfast room was divine.

This simple little hotel is in a great location, their communication prior to our arrival was good and they were kind enough to let us check in early as we arrived in the morning long haul from England. The WIFI was very poor which was disappointing and difficult for forward planning and communication with our friends and family. We were also a little disappointed by the staff's lack of provision for an early breakfast as we left for an early flight at 7am.

Hello Anon ! Thanks for your compliments. Yes, Potts Point is certainly a great location. We do try to get rooms ready as quickly as possible, especially for our long distance travellers, so I am pleased we could get them straight into their room, to shower, rest ,etc, after their early morning arrival from England, rather than have to hang around until the usual 3.00pm. check-in time. Sorry to hear about the WiFi reception. Without knowing which guests I am responding to, all I can say is that no-one has raised this with me in recent times. Usually, it works fine throughout the hotel. Occasionally I need to re-boot one or more of the five "Airport" repeater stations, but currently, it is working well throughout. Additionally, we have a full-size, hard-wired computer in the Lounge/library, which guests can access at any time at no charge. Many people prefer to work on the large screen, at a desk, rather than small devices. Upon request, we are happy to provide, the night before, and often do, a breakfast tray to have in the room, and this is mentioned in the Guest Room Compendium. I am not aware whether or not this was requested? And in any event, we have found that most guests prefer to get to airport early (to avoid last minute problems), and to then fill-in any excess time with a breakfast snack there.

Hello ! Yes, Simpsons is in a great position in Potts point, and most guests relish the helpful breakfast buffet that Damien puts together, and especially Marie's home-made rhubarb and apple compote ! Two of our rooms do have small bathrooms, but most are on the medium to larger size. Depending on the guest's arrival time, we do have a pre-ara pre-arranged after hours entry code, which we advise in advance. Normally, however, we do like to be there to greet guests personally. Thanks for taking the time to review us. Cheers keith.

Fabulous B&B style accommodation in Potts Point. We had a fantastic, spacious room with a balcony. The bathroom was well appointed and had everything you’d need. Restaurants are about 50m away and the main shopping thoroughfare just around the corner but the area of the Hotel is very quiet. Walkable to Sydney CBD. Highly recommend

Great shower, comfortable bed, attractive public areas for relaxing, delicious breakfast especially the stewed rhubarb. Damien was polite and friendly. I wish I could give this hotel a higher rating but being chastised by Ree for using the code to enter instead of ringing the bell was not a good start. She was also abrupt with the housemaid and questioned my partners issue with the intercom. I wish we'd met Keith instead, his friendly email exchanges had me expecting a friendlier welcome.

Hello MK. Thanks for your frank Review. I am pleased that you found all the physical matters to your liking, including our wonderful healthy buffet breakfast, especially Marie's very popular home-made compote. However, I am sorry that you found Ree abrupt and less than friendly. That is certainly not what you want upon first arrival. When she returns from her current few days break I will discuss it with her. All that I can say is that this is not her normal manner, as can be seen from other positive Reviews, and there may have been some underlying problem. Once again, my apologies that on this occasion we did not present upon your arrival our usual friendly face, and I hope that you will give us another opportunity to express ourselves better. Thanks again for your frank comments, which are always helpful. Cheers keith.

The hotel has an aura of somewhat faded grandeur. A lick of paint is definitely in order here and there. My biggest problem was with our double bed (two singles pushed together. The mattress was extremely soft. My back was in pain after a night sunk into the depths of the mattress. I actually contemplated sleeping on the floor, but the second night was bearable Breakfast is absolutely superb. No complaints there.

Yes, our "Laura Ashley" style decor is certainly of the traditional style, and in places need a little touch-up, which is planned. So sorry about the bed. We purchase our beds from a very well regarded manufacturer, and follow their boutique hotel recommendations, which is medium/firm. Glad that at least the second night was not so uncomfortable. Yes, our healthy breakfast buffet is very popular. Glad that you enjoyed it.

Hello Brian ! Thanks for you kind words. Yes timing is always a difficult issue. We have experimented with different time, and in fact do serve until 10.00am. on weekends. We find that during the week, most guests are out earlier. Having only 12 -rooms, it would just not be feasible for us to keep fresh food out for such a long period, but we can always make-up a tray the night before for those who may want to sleep-in.

hello Darrell Thankyou for your frank reply. Some of our flat-screen televisions are newer than others, but I think most will take USB sticks. We can supply fresh milk for room coffee upon request. Parking in Potts Point is always a problem. We are the only small hotel that has it, with room for 4-5 cars in tandem. Usually, we don't have a problem as most of our guests are from overseas, without cars. And we don't charge for car-parking. We do have boiled eggs, but our insurance does not allow for any actual cooking. Apologies if the bread you tried was apparently not fresh, but we do offer five different varieties of breads. Most Reviewers seem to find our healthy breakfast buffet one of the highlghts. Value is a very subjective matter. Any other hotel or cafe would charge at least $30-50.00 per couple for what we offer complimentary. Again other hotels, if they have parking, charge up to $40.00 per night. So I do think that we offer good value for money, but yes, generally speaking, spend more if you want more. I am sorry that Ree was apparently not as friendly as she might have been, and I will raise your comments with her. Genrally, people find her friendly and outgoing. Once again, thanks for taking the time to give us your frank comments, as we can always go on learning from Reviews as to how to improve. Thanks again
