Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour
Review of Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour, Sydney by
maintenanceman
Advantages: Great location & Proximity to Darling Harbour nightlife & Monorail.
Disadvantages: No view of the bridge or opera house.
Have stayed at this hotel on 2 occasions & was very impressed, The consierge has all the information you could need & can make bookings for you at very short notice, The staff are all very helpful & the rooms appear to be well maintained.
The food is of a very good standard & international.
Most of the rooms to the front have good views although you probably wouldnt spend too much time there as there is so much to do in Sydney.
The deals / rates ...

Star City Casino/Hotel
Review of Star City Hotel, Sydney by
tblake7
Advantages: Brilliant View, close to city
Disadvantages: Very expensive....not worth the money
...splash out and stay at Star City.....which is right in the heart of Darling Harbour in the city.
After arriving at the airport we had our first bad experience in that they make you PAY for the airport Shuttle bus...not just any shuttle bus, the actual star city one! So they make their guests pay to get to the hotel....In my opinion, when you pay such high prices to stay somewhere nice, you would think the shuttle bus is part of the service!
So ... ...hotel only to find they CHARGE their own guests $40 per NIGHT to park at the hotel....yes the hotel that you are a guest at and have paid $300+ per NIGHT to stay at! For these prices, you would expect a really nice room, we stayed there for 4 nights so it wasn't cheap and to be honest, the room we had was no different from a Travelodge room..it was very ordinary! You soon realise that you are paying for the view and the proximity to the city.
The ...

The place to stay in Sydney
Review of Meriton Rialto Apartments, Sydney by
manimal
Advantages: Clean, excellent service, near to city centre.
Disadvantages: Near very noisy pub, not a great view from apartment.
...other minor fault with the Meriton is we were in a one bedroom apartment but they had placed the beds so that you couldn't close the bedroom door. The location of the hotel was in the centre of the shopping district and to get to the major attractions of Sydney it was a 20-40 minute walk. The facilities in the apartment were excellent and its was very clean with a daily maid service, this covered having your bed made, new towels and replenishment ... ...facilities in the room were excellent. There was the television, fridge and freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster, dish washer, washer and dryer and an ironing board and iron. There was also a gas hob which i decided not to risk trying.
The apartments were very clean, especially the bathroom which had a sink, shower and toilet and plenty of cupboard space in which to put your toiletries. The cupboards were all mirrored making it easy for me to have ...

Great for a short break
Review of Pacific International Hotel, Sydney by
Joll
Advantages: Close to Central Station and within walking distance of most attractions.
Disadvantages: No views.
My husband and I recently spent four days at this hotel. We were pleasantly surprised at how near the hotel is to Central Station. There is no need to get a taxi, it took 5 minutes to walk. The hotel is in an old listed building, which is decorated in the Art Deco style. Our room was quite small but was clean and had everything you would expect from a four star hotel. The only downside was that we did not have a view, but this didn't really bother ... ...only came back to sleep.
The staff were friendly and helpful, and the cooked breakfast was excellent. There is a car park in the basement which we used for one night, at a charge, although the spaces are a little tight. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and would definitely stay there again. Great value for money. ...

Good Value, Comfortable, excellent location
Review of Best Western Hotel Unilodge, Sydney by
legal_angel25
Advantages: Cheap but very cheerful
Disadvantages: rooms are quite small
...said, it is also a Best Western Hotel. Our room was small, but very comfortable and kame with a full-size fridge, microwave, kettle, sink and crockery. Tea and coffee making facilities were refreshed every day and the sheets were always very clean. The shower was excellent also. The hotel has an indoor pool and small gym in the basement and the reception staff were friendly. Don\'t go expecting that your bags will be carried to your room or you\'ll ... ...brisk 10-15 minute walk to Darling Harbour or a short bus/train ride to Circular Quay from Central station which is a 5 minute walk away. For eating out, I would recommend a very short walk around the corner to Glebe Point Road which is filled with every different type of restaurant you could wish for - I would recommend the Vietnamese restaurant Saigon Saigon. The hotel is opposite the Broadway shopping mall which has a supermarket and plethora ...
