“FABULOUS HOTEL IN GREAT LOCATION”

I had to return to my hometown for a four night business trip and I’m so glad I chose this hotel. At around A$200/night it was reasonable for expensive Sydney but the view was worth twice the price!

I had to return to my hometown for a four night business trip and I’m so glad I chose this hotel. At around A$200/night it was reasonable for expensive Sydney but the view was worth twice the price! I had a harbour bridge king room and did it ever deliver! The bed was super comfortable but the pillows were a bit high for me. The rain-shower was delightful and the bulk toiletries very nice. The fact that you get a Dyson hairdryer with all the accessories is amazing! The washroom’s peekaboo window wall means you can enjoy the view from the shower, however, if you have guests, you can drop the curtain. There was a work desk but its location, under the TV, had me using the dining table instead and there was a bench luggage rack big enough for my suitcase. Facilities included a minibar, kettle, tea and Nespresso coffee maker with pod top-up on request. My stay didn’t include breakfast but it is available in the lobby restaurant. Its location couldn’t be better as it’s a short walk to the North Sydney train station from where you can arrive/depart step-free from the airports with only one change. There are also buses to all over the north shore. I had a hire car for two nights and used the onsite parking. It’s a bit steep at $40/night, but worth it for the convenience in North Sydney where parking is at a premium. It’s now my go to hotel when I visit Sydney.

My husband and I have stayed here several times and this stay was just as good as we were hoping. This time we had my Mum and her husband with us for a family staycay and to attend a concert at the State Theatre. As Sydneysiders we love the location of View Sydney. It’s really close to the train station with very quick access to Sydney CBD, as well as beyond for touristy things if that’s what you want. Or, if you want to enjoy the less frenetic pace of the local area it’s all close by the hotel. The views of the city from the hotel are some of the best you’ll see. Paying the extra to have a skyline or harbour view is worth it. If you can’t do that you can still enjoy the superb city views from the restaurant or from the outdoor chillax area. Buffet breakfast is great but don’t expect the same range offered at higher rated hotels. There were plenty of gluten free options when we stayed this time. Hotel may not be high end luxury but it is a great place to stay with beautiful views, lovely staff and clean modern rooms. It’s a great base from which to explore this beautiful city. One thing to note is that if you or your travelling companions have mobility issues you should check with the hotel to understand what your options are. Accessing the actual entry to the hotel from street level on foot may be a bit of a challenge if you struggle in that department. All in all though we like this place a lot and hope to be back again soon.
