The Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel, Sydney

Advantages: This city knows how to enjoy itself
Disadvantages: one or two

...for a traditional English pint I usually go there When I have a craving for Bass bitter and there are English puds like the Lord Nelson. I have missed a lot of places so here is a quick run down, manly beach, woywoy, Sydney aquairium, the rocks market,opera house, circular quay,darling harbour, olympic stadium, the sydney cricket ground, cetennial park the bicentennial park. It would be wrong If did not tell where not to go. Kings cross this has a red light district and strong drugs culture so please try to avoid idf you have children. For you safety the following places should be avoided, as with most cities there are rough areas. they are Redfearn, waterloo, cabramatta alexandra, Finally I just want to say I love Sydney but hope I have told you things to watch for I have only tipped the iceberg of things to do so...

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. I spent the first two or three days relaxing at the hotel, going to it's gym, the pool and having a look around the city. We spent the time looking at the tourist attractions, including The Sydney Opera House, where we dined and watch a production, which was absoultey spectacular, we did a Captain Cook Dinner cruise around the Sydney harbour which had a tasty menu, which we enjoyed and ofcourse I could not leave Sydney without...

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
