I will leave this private as your service was excellent in sorting out problems, but there were problems... Our first room was so tiny it felt like a joke. We decided to ask for a bigger room and were happy to pay to move. The second room was bigger, but was incredibly noisy. The rumble of the air conditioning above our bed was very, very, very loud. There was a big sopping wet patch on the rug where someone had tried to clean a nasty stain, without any luck, and the bath mat was dirty... it wasn't a clean room. We don't usually complain unless things are really bad, and I thought we might get used to the noise so we stayed another night in that room, but even putting in earplugs didn't cut the noise and then it became obvious that the air con wasn't working. We were offered a room on the same top floor which was lovely, but the noise issue from the air conditioning unit was just as bad. The walls were vibrating so we declined that room and asked if there was a room on a different level hoping to avoid the issue. We were given a room on level three which was great. Air con working and nice and big. The breakfasts were great, love the industrial vibe and people were all very helpful, but it really was a stay of two halves. The corner rooms should have king single beds, and be offered to parties of one! I now see that the dimensions are on the website but really, that room is not big enough for two people... and we are not even very big people. Measurements are not my thing and I like 'cosy' but this was ridiculous. Nowhere to put luggage for two people, and not even room for one comfy chair. The bathroom sinks were chipped in both the rooms we stayed in, and 'curated snacks and drinks'... juice, water, pringles and a tiny kitkat which weren't even replenished... hardly 'curated'! Tea and coffee... instant coffee in a hotel, really? The location is great but it didn't feel like a luxury retreat experience. Feedback for you as I am not making it public... there were things to like, but also things you could change to make it better. Fitted sheets on the king size bed for one. It came untucked after a few minutes.

Nicole M. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

I wish I could give a positive review, however I was really disappointed with your hotel. Both mornings the shower water was cold. seriously cold. Also, apparently it's a known issue that the 4th floor aircon in the room doesnt work (so the reception staff said when we said we couldnt make it work) , and it can only be controlled by the reception staff. Our room was 26 degrees and we couldn't reduce it. Happy that there was another room available on the 3rd floor. I wish I had more positives, as the location is great and the rooms are well done. But my stay was far from ideal for a business trip.

Dear Nicole, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection. I am sincerely sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations, particularly as it appears several aspects of your room experience impacted your comfort. The lack of hot water on both mornings is certainly not acceptable, and I completely understand your disappointment. While the problem was identified and being fixed by our team, I apologise that this disrupted your stay and detracted from what should have been a comfortable business trip. I am also sorry for the frustration you experienced with the air conditioning. We appreciate how frustrating it would have been to be unable to adjust the temperature in your room, particularly when it remained uncomfortably warm.The issue is currently in the process of being rectified. While I am pleased that our team was able to relocate you to an alternative room on the third floor, I recognise that this should not have been necessary. That said, we are grateful for your kind comments regarding our location and the design of the rooms. It is disappointing that these positives were overshadowed by the maintenance issues you encountered. Thank you again for your honest feedback. Your comments have been shared with the relevant teams, and we appreciate the opportunity to learn from your experience and improve. Wooly Regards, Alexander John Gough Nixon Operations Manager Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection

I paid for an upgraded room but the windows had bars on them looking out into a dark alley. Furthermore, a door opened up to that dark alley where a random person was smoking. The room is not convenient for anyone who has handicaps as they were stairs once you enter the room the up to the loft and down to the living room. To make things more complicated, the bathroom was no where near the bedroom, but downstairs around the corner from the living room.

Dear Ryan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection. I am sorry to hear that your room did not meet expectations, particularly as you had selected one of our suite rooms. We understand how disappointing it would have been to find that the outlook and overall layout were not what you had anticipated. Our Homestead Loft is designed to reflect the unique character of the heritage building, with a split-level layout that separates the living, sleeping, and bathroom spaces. While many guests enjoy this distinctive design, we appreciate that it may not suit everyone's preferences, particularly those with mobility concerns or those seeking a more traditional hotel room configuration. We do outline the Loft room layout and features within our room descriptions; however, we understand that experiencing the room in person can be quite different. I am also sorry to hear that the outlook from your room detracted from your stay and that the presence of an external access door and another individual outside area made you feel uncomfortable. We appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us better communicate room features and suitability to future guests. While we regret that this particular room type was not the right fit for your needs, we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and assist with selecting a room category better suited to your preferences.

Dear Claire, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection. While we're pleased to hear that you had booked one of our Queen Suites, I am sorry to learn that the upgrade to a Corriedale Loft did not suit your preferences and impacted your overall experience. While many guests enjoy the unique split-level design, we appreciate that stairs may not be suitable or convenient for everyone, particularly during the night. Your feedback is valuable and will help us better understand guest preferences when assigning room types and discussing accommodation options. Thank you again for your honest feedback. We regret that this room type was not the right fit for your stay, and should you choose to stay with us again, we would be pleased to recommend one of our non-Loft room categories which may better suit your requirements.

Will F. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Good location. Nice rooms, good beds, but things like air conditioning and shower wate temperature were below par. Fridge was very small. No bowl or plate or cutlery to have food in the room which was dissappointing as I brought my own food as I have some dietary requirements that make it easier for me to eat my own food in my room most nights.. Room was very very warm when I entered. Shower water was cold and tepid. I managed to change my room via reception, which many other guests told me they also had to do- which makes me think its a regular thing, and the way that all rooms can only have their temperature changed- which seems ridiculous. staff were nice. breakfast food was good.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed our location, the comfort of your room and the friendliness of our team. I'm sorry, however, that the room and shower temperatures affected your comfort. I'm glad our Reception team was able to arrange an alternative room, and your comments will be shared with the relevant teams for follow-up. Regarding the in-room amenities, while we provide details of what's included in our rooms online, we understand that guests may have additional needs. Although crockery and cutlery are not standard room amenities, our Food & Beverage team is always happy to provide these upon request. I wish we'd had the opportunity to assist you with this during your stay. Thank you again for choosing Woolstore 1888 and for your loyalty as an ALL Silver member. We hope to welcome you back for an even more enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Sophia Hotel Woolstore 1888 x Handwritten Collection

The big issue we had was the cold morning showers for the 3 days we were there. Expected better for the money. We reported the problem to the front desk on the second and third morning but all we got in return was we are trying to fix it. An offer of a discount would have been appreciated for the inconvenience.

Dear Dean, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection. I am sincerely sorry to hear that the lack of hot water impacted your stay for the duration of your visit. We understand how disappointing and inconvenient it would have been to experience cold showers for three consecutive mornings, particularly when staying with us over several days. I also apologise that, after raising the issue with our reception team on multiple occasions, you felt the response did not adequately acknowledge the impact this had on your stay. While our team was actively working to resolve the issue, we recognise that clearer communication, a genuine apology, and a more proactive approach to guest recovery would have been appropriate. Guest comfort is one of the most fundamental aspects of any hotel stay, and it is disappointing that we were unable to deliver this during your visit. We appreciate your honest feedback regarding the handling of the situation and understand why you felt that some form of recognition for the inconvenience would have been warranted. Thank you again for bringing this matter to our attention. Your feedback will be shared with our team as we continue to review how we communicate and respond during service disruptions. Wooly Regards, Alexander John Gough Nixon Operations Manager Hotel Woolstore 1888, Sydney - Handwritten Collection

Bed was a bit firm for my preferences, otherwise a pleasant stay.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the charm of our hotel and its location, and it's especially lovely to see such positive ratings for our team, cleanliness and breakfast. I'm sorry, however, that the mattress was a little firmer than you would have preferred. A comfortable night's sleep is such an important part of any stay, and I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Should you visit us again, please don't hesitate to let our team know your preferences, as we'll be happy to explore ways to make your stay more comfortable. Thank you again for choosing Woolstore 1888 and for your continued loyalty as an ALL member. We would love to welcome you back and make your next visit even more enjoyable. Kind regards, Sophia Hotel Woolstore 1888 x Handwritten Collection
