Everything was pretty good, and the location is super close to Circular Quay. The only downside is the hill you have to climb every time you head back to the hotel, which can be a bit tiring.

Even though it was renovated in 2006, the facilities and service are excellent. I had a very satisfying stay. The executive lounge and room views are absolutely stunning. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit.

Just a five-minute walk from Circular Quay, and about 20 minutes by train to the airport. However, there's quite a steep slope leading up to the hotel from the pier, which is a bit inconvenient. The Opera House view room offers great value for money.

Location: Excellent! It's near Circular Quay, so you can easily get anywhere in Sydney by ferry or bus. However, the walk back to the hotel is an 'agony hill' – it's incredibly steep! Service: There was one Asian-looking female receptionist who was quite mean, but everyone else was very welcoming and enthusiastic. Environment & Hygiene: As an established hotel, the hygiene and environment are very good, and it's always packed with guests. Even without a view of the Sydney Opera House, the scenery from the high floors is still beautiful.

The rooms are a bit old but very well-maintained. The Executive Room offers excellent views of both the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Many hotel staff can speak some Chinese, and the breakfast is decent. The hotel is located up a steep hill, which can be a bit challenging if you're carrying luggage. Of course, the main reason to choose this hotel is for the views; otherwise, hotels near QVB are more convenient for getting around.

The hotel is located on a steep slope, making the walk to it a bit challenging. However, it's very close to the station and also conveniently located near the sightseeing bus pick-up point. The room was decent and met expectations for the price. The hotel staff were quite polite.

Thank you for creating unforgettable experiences and I really enjoyed breathtaking views on the 30th and 34th floors, a truly inspiring place for spending time with your loved ones and enjoy the most beautiful memories. Big thanks to the best team at Horizon Club Lounge (Saskia and one of the concierge team members) who have made our Christmas Eve and Christmas Day even more special. Highly recommended for holidays and special occasions, we will definitely come back next year.

A conflicting resort —First the positives— Location in the rocks is perfect View to the opera house is great Beds are soft Food is good —The negatives — Amenities were a bit barren Robes were thread bare The shampoo is locked into the shower so good luck using it for a bath, had to pump some into a glass which felt cheap I got double charged for room service and took awhile to get sorted The bar food is significantly worse then the room service — Summary — Honestly a good hotel for the view and location, id be tempted to try other hotels in similar braxkets next time if only for the annoying little issues that felt out of place for the hotels look. If you have an opera house view room its much nicer to just dine in at your room and enjoy the view Dont pay card for dine in at the door, i did that and on check out it looked unpaid, so best to just pay it out on check out to save the emails back and forth headache
