On the drive to the hotel I was a bit worried about staying in the city and coming from Malaysia was expecting the standard of hotel service to not be so good but I was pleasantly suprised! On arrival we had a slight problem in that we had accidently given our driver the voucher for the hotel instead of the... more

I stay here regularly for work and this hotel is in a great position. It's in the heart of Darling Harbour near all the restaurants and it's 2 blocks away from the Queen Victoria Building in the centre of Sydney. Clean rooms, prompt friendly check in and checkout. Taxi's don't take long and the guy that makes the omlette's in... more

I was dissapointed when our travel agents came back to tell us that our original hotel (the Four Points By Sheraton) was over booked and we had been transfered to the Crown Plaza, but the hotel was really good. It was nicely postitioned (we had booked a harbour view but it was not that good - Four Points had a... more

I strayed down to the bar to have a few glasses of wine and was surprised at how expensive it was. The wine served... more

We spent 6 nights here as part of our honeymoon. Over all the hotel was quite good, very clean, spacious and comfortable but there were a few issues: 1) upon arrival (7.45am) we were told we couldn't check into our room until 2pm....not what you want to hear after a 13 hour flight. the hotel had been given advance notice... more

The hotel believes in good service and big smiles. I definitely saw a big smile from a check-in staff. Impressive. The room is big and clean. It is rated as 4 star which is accurate. Not as luxury as Hyatt or anything like that but much better than some hotels that have been rated 4 star as the Menzies Sydney.... more

Stayed in September 2007 for a seminar held in the nearby Convention Centre (less than 10 min slow walk). Hotel is also easy walk to the Chinatown district (and some cheap eats!). Service at check-in is fast and efficient. Room (City View/Queen Bed) was well presented, although the desk was somewhat underlit. Foxtel, Skynews and Free to air TV on... more
