Right next to Pyrmont Bridge, making easy access to both sides of Darling Harbour. Plenty of great restaurants nearby. Comfortable bed, modern layout and decor. Compact room which is suitable for a few nights. Staff were friendly and helpful. Short walk to the light rail station.

On the plus side, the Aiden is conveniently located in Pyrmont (only a short walk across the Pyrmont Bridge to the CBD). The rooms are small but are fine for a short business stay, with nice bathrooms which are very clean. I like that you can fill bottles of sparkling water from a communal tap on each floor. That's all good and I like the design too. On the not as good side, the staff make you check yourself in and out, which I don't love but it is their system. Breakfast was a bit so-so (rock hard toast). The area around the hotel can be a bit dodgy (I walked past someone using the street as their toilet) but that's not the fault of the hotel - so be alert for that if you're out late and on your own.
