The hotel's location is excellent, very close to the pier, tram, and subway, about a 7-8 minute walk, which also helps avoid noisy environments. The service staff are quite good, and you can get drinking water yourself in the hotel lobby. However, the bathroom sink is a disaster; when you wash your hands or face, water instantly splashes all over the counter. The shower drain is extremely slow; halfway through washing your hair, your feet are already submerged. You have to ask for toothbrushes; they're not provided automatically. Furthermore, the quality of the shampoo, conditioner, and toothpaste is very poor, leaving hair dry and brittle after washing. This aspect is incomparable to the amenities provided in domestic 5-star hotels. I recommend bringing your own or buying better products.

We had a fantastic stay at Paradox Hotel Sydney. The location is excellent — super central and very easy to get to, whether you’re coming in by car or public transport. It’s right near plenty of great bars and restaurants, so there’s always something happening nearby and lots of options within walking distance. The room was very clean and a great size, with plenty of space to relax. Everything felt well maintained and comfortable. The hotel staff were genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. We also made the most of the amenities — the pool and spa were a highlight and a great way to unwind after being out in the city. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend Paradox Hotel Sydney to others looking for a central and comfortable place to stay.

Service was amazing, all staff are very helpful. Room was very clean and comfortable. If travelling with kids, plenty of room, close to shops and restaurants or places to visit with the family, such as the aquarium or close to corcular quay so you can jump on a Gerry to luna park or taronga zoo.

The staff were very helpful. We were able to get early access to our room. Loved the 12pm check out too! The pool, spa and steam room were lovely. Sadly our bathroom was very smelly making it unpleasant to have the door open. As we were only there one night and at a function until late we didn’t try to change rooms but did report it at check out. All in all a pleasant stay.

We were looked after very well. Due to circumstances we needed to check out at 7pm. The staff were excellent they allowed us into our room at 10am which gave us time to freshen up and rest for a few hours and we were very thankful for this. Would recommend this hotel to everyone
