Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour

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 ...

On The Rocks?

Disadvantages: No Air-conditioning

...January 1788, he was on the verge of establishing the farthest outpost the British Empire had ever seen. Having surveyed the shoreline, he quickly decided upon a suitable area for a settlement, and his crew and convict charges disembarked at a sheltered, rocky area, beneath the site of the present day Harbour Bridge. In time, this area would become known as 'The Rocks'. In the century that followed, the early settlement grew into a village, initially ...
...however, eventually transforming itself into the massive metropolis we now know as Sydney. The frailty of the early settlement made hardiness and intrepidity essential, and many convicts died long before any prospect of emancipation. Those who survived, however, crafted the foundations upon which a great city was built, and many of their achievements are still very much in evidence to this day. THE ROCKS: Sydney's earliest colonial buildings were ...

...hotel break away in the Sofitel for four nights as our Christmas present -------------------Our arrival-------------------- We arrived into Sydney from Bali, but arrived at the domestic terminal as we changed at Darwin in the early hours of the morning. We jumped in a taxi straight outside the airport. Taxis appeared to be plentiful which can be rare at airports sometimes. The taxi driver instantly offered us two routes to get to the hotel. These ...
...in any hotel room. In Sofitel rooms you slept with a duvet underneath you as well as on top. This helps make it extra comfy. One thing I also find in hotels is that you don't always get enough pillows and have to call and wait a long time to get a couple of extra ones, However the extra pillows were there waiting for us in the wardrobe upon arrival. Within the room you are given a fine coffee/tea making facility. This is located in a cupboard. Here ...

...outdoor heated pool. The Stamford Grand North Ryde came up trumps on both accounts, but in endeavouring to keep my travel budget down and having forked out nearly £700 for a flight, all the agent websites were way too expensive. So I did what I quite often do and tried to dig out the chains website, who unwaveringly didn't fail to let me down. A little check with our own "helencbradshaw" and one of my colleagues assured me that my chosen destination ...

...March we stayed in the Medina Grand on the Harbourside (Darling Habour) for 4 nights. We booked the accommodation over the internet (lastminute.com.au). On first arrival the staff were very friendly and escorted us to our room. The room (although not a sea view) was a one bedroom luxury apartment. (let's just say my wife fell in love with the room, and now wants the house decorated in the same style...) The whole apartment was decorated in Italian ...
