Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay at the Four Seasons hotel. We celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary and the staff treated us so warmly that we felt very special. We will definitely stay again."

Shangri-La Sydney

6/10 Okay

"It was a good stay on check in they said the room wasn't ready which was fine they said half hr to an hr so headed of for lunch within 5 minutes of leaving they text us room was ready also they took a holding deposit of $435 on check in which is pretty standard & was told it would be automatically credited back on check out we checked out on the Friday I checked the account that afternoon not there I waited till Monday afternoon before ringing to find out more seeing still no refund they said I would receive a call & an email asap to explain what had happened but received neither later that night deposit was returned all I'd suggest is check ur account balance to make sure you get your money back probably an oversite but I wonder how many times this happens without people checking & just loose their deposit."

The Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were very polite, helpful and pleasant. The Hotel is old and as expected things were not pristine but very clean & warm. We liked the old charm of the Hotel and the area. The Bar & dining areas were always busy with patrons & this reflects the popularity of the Hotel. It is situated between Circular Quay and Barangaroo which made our VIVID visit easy to walk & access events & displays. NB: There are stairs to access the accommodation so contact the venue to ask about where your room is situated if you struggle with stairs. The staff took our heavy bags to & from our room, which was really appreciated."

The York by Swiss-Belhotel International

8/10 Good

"Great location and easy access to everything near Circular Quay. 200 meters from Wynyard station. We were a little disappointed that the stock pictures used on Expedia made the apartment look better than it was. The apartment we stayed in was roomy and adequate, but could definitely use some updating. The bathrooms, kitchen, and carpet need some refreshing, but everything worked so it was not a huge issue."
