Top Kensington Hotel Reviews

YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, helpful staff and comfortable room with good facilities "

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is well located, modern and with excellent helpful staff. There was a problem with the door key which didn’t work. I would like to give special praise to Po who is the receptionist at the Breakfast Room. Not only warm and welcoming but she remembered me and my granddaughter from a visit a month ago!! Great personal service and delighted my 5 year old that a “big person” would remember her. Well done Po. We’ll be back."

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A weekend we’ll never forget. I recently stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel Sydney to propose to my partner, and I can honestly say it was one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The team went above and beyond surprising us with a stunning room upgrade, a thoughtful bottle of wine, balloons, chocolates, rose petals on the bed, and even a personalised “Happy Anniversary” message written on the window. Every detail was intentional, elegant, and heartfelt. My partner was speechless, and I couldn’t have asked for a better setting to propose. We also dined at the restaurant during our stay, and the food was absolutely outstanding. Room service was faultless, fast, beautifully presented, and delicious every time. Even the small touches the warmth of the staff, the calm energy of the space, the discretion made this experience truly exceptional. This wasn’t just a hotel stay. It was the beginning of a new chapter in our lives, and the Four Seasons became part of that story in the most beautiful way. We’ll never forget it. Thank you for everything. – Joshua Siderovski"

Hyatt Regency Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"The Hyatt could not have been better located for what I wanted to do. With an exit in the back right onto Darling Harbour and the many attractions there, including the tour boats, dining and other entertainment, and a short walk to just about every form of transport in Sydney, including busses to Bondi Beach, the L2/L3 to Circular Quay and the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, and the trains out of Town Hall or Wynyard. There wasn’t a single thing I wanted to do that I couldn’t walk to, or get public transport to. I didn’t have the best view, looking at a parking garage, but the other side should have had great views of Darling Harbour and the Saturday fireworks. If I had to be critical, there was a lot of light leakage from the hallway through the door, and it would have been nice if the dressers had a drawer into which I could have put my dirty clothes, but that is about the only fault I could find."

Hilton Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms are very nice!! King bed, very clean. If you want to play your own movies on the TV, it has a USB input. Pool & Spa is open from 6am-9pm, it is part of Fitness First which is in the basement, FREE as a guest of the hotel. The glasserie restaurant is not very good, better to go outside to other 5star restaurants. Buffet breakfast is very good. Overall worth a stay."
