Paradox Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"A great 2 night stay in this lovely hotel in CBD. Came from cruise terminal , so we were very early. Of course our room wasn't ready so we left our bags and went to explore Sydney. We got an email by noon to say our room was ready. Room was upgraded and it was large, modern and bright. Very comfortable bed with pillow menu. Would stay here again"

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a fantastic location, making it very convenient for getting around and exploring the area. The staff were reasonably helpful and pleasant, although I found them somewhat inflexible when it came to accommodating requests. There were a few disappointing aspects of the stay. The minibar was completely empty, which was unexpected, and the property was undergoing construction during my visit, which detracted from the overall experience. Breakfast was enjoyable, with a nice selection of food, although I was surprised that poached eggs weren’t available. Given the price of breakfast, I would have expected a little more flexibility with something so simple. Overall, the location is definitely the hotel’s strongest selling point, but I felt some of the finer details and level of service could be improved to better reflect the price of the stay."
