The actual room size was very spacious so it was a bit of a let down seeing how the space was utilised in the design on the bathroom. The bathroom was on the cramped side and the design of the shower meant lots of water was sprayed out onto the floor. The location of this hotel is superb given the spacious parking next door as an option with Chinatown just next door.

Beautiful hotel with a fantastic breakfast buffet. The room was large and the bed was very comfortable. Staff were friendly and a lovely lady on the front desk helped us out with a parking issue and was super lovely. We will definitely stay here again.

Great hotel with decent amenities. As a Gold member we received some great perks with the hotel such as free parking and $50 dining voucher. The hotel is very close to Darling harbor, China Town, and the ICC. Also just minutes away from George street.

The Sydney Central hotel is a 3 minute walk to the light rail, 900 metres from the capital theatre and 5 minutes to Darling Harbour. While she is beginning to show her age the rooms are clean, comfortable and the staff are lovely. My wife and I liked our room service dinner. We walked up to World square the to Pitt st mall and shopped. Caught the light rail back to Haymarket and walked back to the hotel. Easy walk back to Capital theatre to see a show. Walked to Darling Harbour for dinner and then walked easily back to the hotel. All in all a great stay. We will go back.

Bathroom had a few hairs not cleaned. It seemed otherwise clean but a bad impression. This was a completely upgraded room though so I wonder if it was done to turn over and use if not used recently. Staff were friendly enough when needed. The room service was expensive for the quality but adequate for room service.
