“Excellence on the Quay”
So it's quite tricky to think what else they could do to improve our stay. We had pushed the boat out and gone for a room with a Bridge/Opera House view, and it was really worth it. All staff on top of their game. Breakfast a bit clunky - excellent selection but a bit of a faff with waiting staff g… more

“You will not believe how close you are to the Opera House”
Having seen the pictures I knew my wife had chosen a luxury hotel near to the Sydney Opera House. However walking five minutes from the hotel entrance to the steps of that iconic building still took my breath away. How does she do it ? This hotel could not be better placed for the iconic harbour, t… more

“A Great Hotel in My Favorite City”
Beautiful hotel in the “happening” downtown area. The hotel was repurposed from a century-old government building, and the transformation is striking and interesting. Hotel staff is welcoming and helpful. Great views from our 14th floor room. A short walk to the Sydney Opera house, and literall… more

“Excellent location. Great Service.”
Excellent location. Near the Ferry and Central Rail Line. Rooms are modern and very clean. Staff at front desk is welcoming and professional. We arrived quite early at 6:00am. And due to our room category and availability, staff checked us in early on the 25th floor Club Lounge access with Opera Ho… more

“Birthday stay with special treats”
Stayed at Intercontinental Sydney for a week in December. Communication with the hotel was good from pre stay and throughout the stay with a WhatsApp chat set up by the concierge team. My wife had a special birthday during our stay and the club lounge team got to know us well during the stay and su… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
