Yes, it is not cheap. But you get what you pay for.
If you want luxurious rooms, great food, (the seafood "all you can eat" buffet is excellent), and friendly staff, then stay here.
Go to the top floor, where the swimming pool is located, and take photos of the surrounding area from there.
Also the location is good, 3 minutes walk down to Circular Quay, the Opera House, etc., can't be beat.
If you need sundry consumables, water, fags, chocolate, toothpaste, etc., then there is a "Open all hours" store on the way up from the harbour. Very useful.
Dinner at the InterContinental is also not cheap, but very good, seafood, steaks, etc., served with a smile, and any quirky extras you may require (Heinz Ketchup, English Mustard, etc.).
Basically what we are talking about here is location, location, location, with the added bonus of luxury thrown in as standard.Margaret and I got married on the other side of the harbour, at Cremone Point, so I have a biased view anyway.
The hotel could not have been more helpful with hairdos, bouquets, laundry, taxis, organising the reception, etc.

A good start but there is so much more you could write to make this more useful to a consumer. Have a look around the site at other hotel reviews, should give you a better insight into what people find more helfpul :)
