YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here before and they are still maintaining their excellent standards. Very well located right beside darling harbour. Enjoyed the free upgrade to the penthouse. Much appreciated."

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney

8/10 Good

"Alway a pleasent stay at the Fullerton. Location is also a massive upside."

Paradox Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"It was my first time staying at the Paradox. I had a very comfortable, enjoyable stay. I had several meals there, all excellent."

Rydges World Square

10/10 Excellent

"Very quick check in. Room was ready when arrived."

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great. Staff was friendly. They accommodated an early check-in, which I appreciated after an 18 hour flight. Will definitely return!"

Mercure Sydney

8/10 Good

"Rooms are clean and well-maintained with everything you need. Checking in and out are all done digitally on kiosks, and there is a very friendly and helpful staff there to assist if you have trouble. Convenient location and secure parking. Couldn't give five stars because there was a peculiar smell all throughout the building (thankfully not in the rooms) and because the sofa bed mattress was too thin and uncomfortable. The main bed mattresses were great, though."

"Stunning view of habour bridge"

"Room was spacious, well appointed with a huge balcony. I liked the location, still CBD but a couple of blocks from Darling Harbour. I could have stayed for a month."
