Harbour Rocks Hotel, Sydney

Advantages: 2 min walk to Circular Quay, great views of Opera House & Bridge
Disadvantages: None, would definately stay there again on my next visit

...The best part about this hotel is the location. It is very close to Circular Quay, The Rocks, The Bridge and the Opera House. We stayed here for 4 nights in March and found the staff to be very friendly and professional. We only ate breakfast in the hotel which was about £16 and buffet style, although there was an enormous choice of food . We had a Deluxe Bridge View room, comfy beds with nice linens and lots of other amenities it had a good view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Nice pool and well-equipped gym in the hotel, but the attractions of Sydney don't leave much time to take advantage of them! When we stayed the hotel has just undergone a period of refurbishment and everything was immaculate.... Read review

Advantages: Great Tourist Attractions, Nice Beaches, Hot, Cheaper in some places than the UK
Disadvantages: Long Flight, Not easy to get around

...Since I was a teenager I had always wanted to tour Australia, and finally as I hit 18 I booked my first visit to Sydney. From the minute I stepped on Emirates Airlines I was satisfied. It was a fabulous, unforgettable experience. I flew from London Heathrow to Sydney and spent three weeks staying in Hotel InterContinental Sydney, which was probably the most expensive but luxiourus hotel I have ever stayed in.

Advantages: Central location right next to the Harbour
Disadvantages: Fairly pricey

...I visited this hotel in April 2005 when visiting Australia. Great central location with views from many of the rooms of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Only a minutes walk from the harbour so you are right in the action! The hotel had recently been refurbished and was really classy. Staff very friendly and helpful. My room was spacious and comfortable. I had a fantastic view of the Opera House from the room and I could watch the sun rise every morning - Well worth it! I didn't have any meals in the hotel (breakfast wasn't included) but there are plenty of places to get a great breafast, this wasn't a problem. Great hotel, I would recommend staying if you are visiting Sydney!... Read review
