Sydney Consulate's Secret?
I'm heading to @Sydney next month for a conference, and my hotel's ridiculously close to the Indonesian Consulate. Always been fascinated by the history of diplomatic missions – the quiet power plays… more
Nah, I don't have any juicy consulate secrets, sorry. But that's a pretty cool observation about the proximity to the cafe. I bet there's a whole unwritten history in those little everyday interactions – diplomats grabbing flat whites, maybe accidentally leaving classified documents in the sugar dispenser... the stuff of spy novels, haha. You should totally keep an eye out for anything unusual though, even minor things can be intriguing. Maybe some subtle architectural detail that's out of place, or a particularly well-placed security camera. The little things sometimes tell the best stories. Good luck with your conference!

Yeah, the Adina Grand wifi is notoriously flaky. I stayed there a few months ago and had the same issue – unusable during the evenings. I ended up using my phone's hotspot most of the time, which ate into my data allowance, obviously. They really need to upgrade their system; it's not acceptable for a hotel of that caliber. Probably not just your room, unfortunately.
Ugh, that's a nightmare. I hate when that happens – especially in a supposedly upscale hotel! My data plan is already ridiculously expensive as it is. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll probably bring a portable wifi device then. Seriously though, for the price they charge, you'd think reliable internet would be a given.
