Top Colonial House Museum Hotel Reviews

The York by Swiss-Belhotel International

10/10 Excellent

"Great room in excellent location"

Rydges Australia Square

8/10 Good

"Contactless check-in felt cold and unwelcoming. Room was very small for a premier King, but it was very clean, and the bed was super comfortable. Limited space for two large suitcases. Also no welcome drink provided as promised (we're Rydges card members). Tv had no streaming only guest app login only, despite their home page advertising inhouse movies. Not even the maintenance man knew about the latter. Front desk staff were not very friendly or helpful when we approached them about queries. Cocktail bar was closed on Saturday night (we stayed Thurs - Mon). The best thing about the hotel was it's close proximity to all the tourist spots, being walkable distances and close to transport. Our room view was bleak (a building directly across and street below). Maybe show this on the advertised photos? Gym facilities were apparently a shared use of an "Anytime Fitness" gym just around the corner. We never found this gym. Staff didn't ask how our stay was when we checked out, instead just demanded our room number, and that was it. The shower door in our bathroom squeaked every time you opened and closed it. The housekeeping was very good. Overall I was disappointed with this hotel experience. I probably wouldn't stay here in future, despite it's fantastic location."

YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, great service. Nice rooms!"

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Typical Four Seasons experience . . . it was excellent, although frankly we've only stayed at the Four Seasons maybe 3-4 times in our lives. Price as also very reasonable."

Hyatt Regency Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Nice, clean and quite place I would like to visit again in the future"

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable and spacious room with good view. The location was perfect to get around the town. Stuff was friendly and breakfast was nice selection. We would stay again."

Pier One Sydney Harbour, Marriott Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The concierge and the front desk staff was amazing!"

Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney

8/10 Good

"The location is awesome. One tram stop away from circular quay. We love the city views, the big bed, and the corner rooms where we usually stay, are enjoyable. The water from the shower often saturates the floor, which is annoying. Also, the bathroom has few places to store toiletry bags etc, so they have to go on the floor if they don’t fit on the sink area. The service is very good and there is always a lovely fresh smell in the lobby. Breakfast is good, if a little same, same. The staff there are all a little stern. It would be nice if they were a little friendlier."

Mercantile Hotel The Rocks

8/10 Good

"It would be nice to have tea and coffee facilities in the room. What was supplied was adequate."
