Marble - Sydney

In town and feeling corporate, I stopped at Caffe Cino for a quick breakfast. The cafe is situated in the lobby of the Hilton, so we are not talking urban cool. More like 5-star smooth. I ordered a simple breakfast of croissant with butter and jam, which was lifted by the flaky light buttery pastry and the Pepe Saya butter (so good). Washed down with a creamy latte (the cafe's special blend from Vittoria), it was a satisfying start to the day. The service is very good, efficient and pleasant, making this a decent option if you are feeling like something a little more swish and impersonal.

As would be expected of a cafe located inside a five star hotel, the prices are on the, well, pricier side. $5 for a takeaway coffee but service is polite and coffee is good.

Situated in the lobby of the Hilton Hotel, this cafe is reflective of its classy and relaxed atmosphere. The service is extremely friendly and attentive plus their cakes are quite delightful too. ningjaeats.tumblr.com

The cakes were nice, and it is relaxing jumping out of the heat and construction zones around here for a coffee in the cool. But you would need to be made of money to make this your regular coffee haunt. They're not cheap.

It's ok. For a 5 star hotel though I expect more. The decor needs to come up a notch and so does the coffee. It's the type of cafe you'd see in any hotel but here it should be better.
