Uima-altaalliset hotellit kohteessa Sydney

My first review on Trip and I don't usually bother to write reviews - shows you how much the hotel impressed me. We stayed for 1 night in Capella Sydney as a family of 3. The hotel facilities were absolutely amazing, decor was gorgeous and food options at Aperture and Brasserie were awesome. However, I won't dwell on these too much as I'm sure when you booked into a Capella brand hotel, you will already assume this as a given right? One highlight in terms of facilities though, was The Living Room, which is assessible to all guests staying in the hotel. It had beverages, snacks, comfy sofas and 6 star service. We spent so much time there chilling with our son and in the end it really became ”our living room”. Enough of that, let me move on to the service which blew our minds. I'll give you a few examples and hopefully you can see why I feel it would be criminal for me not to write a review. 1. On arrival when we got out of our car and the porters were helping us with our luggage, somehow they addressed me by name. Maybe it's because they saw I had a 2 year old and I was the only guest checking in that day with a small child. Still, I was super impressed. I've only experienced this previously at Aman hotels. 2. Upon checking in, Sophie (I hope I got your name right!) was super helpful and cheerful. When she saw my young son, she also proactively asked if we needed a later check out and if our son needed to nap. She immediately offered to give us 2pm late check out. However, having told her our son actually takes his nap at 2pm, she told us to come back and check with the front desk the next day and they can extend it till 4pm. Remember, I didn't request this, she did this completely out of her own initiative. 3. We didn't book dinner and Sophie referred us to Madiha of the Cultural team. Madiha took note of all our requirements, including the need for the restaurant to be 2 year old friendly, and within 15 mins emailed me a full list of restaurants and their menus for me to choose from while she also served us drinks and snacks at the living room. We eventually picked an Italian restaurant and she made the reservation for us. Fyi, it was scrumptious. 4. After breakfast, we were walking around the lobby and my son walked past the cakeshop and saw a raspberry tart. He really wanted it but I told him we just had breakfast. Ton (?)(I hope I got your name right, the Thai gentleman with a love for cars), the manager came up and said ”you can have the tart for free! It's on the house!”. I was stunned. He also spent so much time talking to my son and showing him pictures of cars, unbelievable. Shout out also to Matthew (uncle Hao Jun) for being so warm and hospitable to us. Honestly we were feeling so sad leaving the hotel as everyone felt like friends and family to us. One thing is for sure though, we will be back. Absolutely flawless service, kudos to the Capella Sydney team!

We stayed at Porter House Hotel after our 2026 New Year’s Eve Countdown Celebration in Sydney. This hotel is located near the shopping area and we were able to use it as a base to do shopping. Highly recommended for travellers to bargain-hunt! Also centrally located with lots of good restaurants and taking the harbour ferry at Circular Quays! We went to Cockatoo Island by ferry and it was good fun!

Sydney Central YHA was an excellent choice for my solo backpacking leg in Sydney after Melbourne. Right next to Central Station and light rail, it's unbeatable for airport trains, quick trips to the Opera House, Bondi Beach, or Chinatown eats—perfect for a student on the move. Private rooms (or dorms with privacy curtains) were clean, comfy with outlets per bed, and secure lockers (bring padlock). Rooftop pool offered city views for evening swims, plus a massive kitchen, cinema room, and social BBQs—great vibe without chaos. Friendly staff gave spot-on tips; minor cons like occasional bathroom queues or street noise didn't detract. Super value at ~$40/night—9.5/10, will return!

We arrived at the hotel in the early afternoon, but due to a delay, check-in was not possible until 6pm. What impressed us was that shortly after we finally entered our room, the manager called our room personally to apologise and offered a generous discount for that night’s stay. This level of professionalism and accountability is highly commendable. The majority of the staff we encountered were polite, greeted us warmly and offered professional smiles throughout our stay. However, there is definite room for improvement in the service. When our car pulled up, there were several staff members standing at the entrance, yet no one offered any assistance with check-in or check-out, nor did anyone help with our luggage. This was particularly disappointing for a family travelling with young children. The hotel would benefit from strengthening its service awareness and training in this area. Unfortunately, during our stay, the room attendant accidentally broke our newly purchased facial cleanser while cleaning the room. They simply wrapped it in a towel and left it on the bathroom counter without any note of apology. While we did not make a fuss about it, it did reflect a lack of attention to guest experience and professionalism that could be improved. Overall, we were still very satisfied with the hotel, particularly its excellent location and the warm, friendly service from the lobby staff. We would happily return on our next visit to Sydney.

In short, Pullman Hyde Park Sydney is a great hotel with a gym and pool that offer good views. The rooms are clean, and the location is perfect for accessing all the famous tourist spots. We stayed for 5 nights at Pullman Hyde Park Sydney in mid-May. We arrived at the hotel around 10 AM, which was earlier than the scheduled check-in time. We requested an early check-in at the concierge; however, we were informed that no rooms were available until 1 PM. This was understandable, given our early arrival. While waiting, we appreciated the water dispenser and snacks available for guests. One downside was that the hotel had only three lifts, which were insufficient for the number of guests. One lift even broke down, and the other two were quite slow. We booked a Superior King Room with a Hyde Park view, which was lovely. The room was clean, with no odors or stains. However, our first room was missing disposable slippers and had a broken phone. The staff quickly sent a technician and arranged for us to move to a higher floor with a functioning phone. They were responsive, but we had to move our luggage ourselves, as they were unable to assist with that. (It was around 6pm so they may be short-staffed at that moment.) We spent some time at the gym, but unfortunately, the drinking water ran out around 6 PM. We called the concierge to have it replenished, but no one arrived by the time we left. The pool was decent, and there was also a jacuzzi. However, the jacuzzi was located right next to the gym and in front of the glass entrance, so anyone coming out of the elevator could see you enjoying it, which may or may not be a concern for some guests. A highlight was running on the treadmill while enjoying the stunning sunset over the city skyline—it was spectacular. The location was fantastic! The major bus stops were just a 6-minute walk away, providing easy access to Bondi Beach, Central Station, and Darling Harbour .etc. It was also only a 15-20 minute walk to the harbour, which made exploring the area very convenient. Overall, while I believe there are cheaper options with similar location advantages, the cleanliness at Pullman Hyde Park was notably better than those alternatives.

Absolutely comfortable and nice room, and there’s some free water soaked with fresh fruit in the grand design lobby just in the entrance area which is good👍🏽 And it takes 10mins walk to Central Station and quite convenient to go to many spots in Sydney Center

The hotel ticks a lot of boxes, clean modern rooms, pool and steam room, and in the best location, very central over looking the beach. The hotel has just had a refurbishment, very tidy with a good bar and restaurant on the ground floor. Only slight negative, front dest - check in could be better and a bit more friendly. If you want to stay in Manly, this hotel is your best choice, the other main hotel is way down at the end of the beach.

Good location close to where I had to be for working week and to catch up with friends. All went well until my grocery bag that I had left on the kitchen bench next to the coffee/tea was mistaken” for rubbish after it had been in the same place for 7 days. APX followed up with cleaning company and I was to provide a list of what was mistakenly taken . I later received message from APX to provide my banking details for refund to be passed on to a cleaning company. I did not feel comfortable in providing my banking details so just accepted the write off of approx $40 but later realised I had another product Manuka honey that would have pushed the approx cost up to $60 but still not comfortable to provide banking details . All up I’ve learnt not to be lazy and to pack my stuff into a cupboard and that could have prevented this “mistake “. Would I use same location again - yes but will pack everything away .

Our living experience in the Hotel was great. The upgrading service in pent house provided a great view of the surrounding areas with a part of Darling Harbour. The house is so big which let us have a very good rest. The facilities in house are sufficient. The room attendant was very helpful and pleasant. Almost everythings are brilliant, just two things need to improve. One is the drainage and the water supply is not stable in the bathroom. Second thing need to pay attention to is the bathroom door in the bedroom should be changed to the material that can block the sunlight to let the guests sleeping deeper.

Very nice view from our room widows. There are full of different types restaurants on the ground floor. But If you close the window, the sound proof is excellent which I typically want to recommend. Stuffs are friendly and helpful, willing to give you recommendations if you are first-time visitors. They even wrote a welcome card. They have a ballroom here just opposite the reception, holding different personal events every night. I like the vibe which means it's popular place and safe. The hotel is friendly to those who travel with dogs. They have special bed and food for dogs. But we didn't need it and the dog net door barked very early in the morning. We were OK with it. At the other aspect, the hotel goes too much. The breakfast is allllll for vegetarians. Yes, all. As a guest, you are left with no choice. This is the only point that I particularly hate. Be whatever you like, just don't push others to do the something, especially when you are running a business.
