We arrived at the Sydney Harbour Hotel super late from Melbourne, absolutely exhausted, and were so relieved to be welcomed with such warmth and professionalism. We had a last-minute need for an extra room, and the front desk made it happen quickly and stress-free — special thanks to Maynark, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The hotel itself is fantastic — the room we were given was spacious, beautifully appointed, and perfect for us as we’re here celebrating our honeymoon. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged, which made us feel right at home after a long travel day. The service, location, and overall atmosphere at the Sydney Harbour Hotel have truly made our stay memorable. Out of all the places we’ve visited in Australia over the past two weeks, this has been one of the warmest and most welcoming experiences yet. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort, great hospitality, and a perfect base for exploring Sydney!

I always stay here now when in the city. It is in an amazing location with everything within reach or walking distance. Stayed here for the City2Surf and even got an upgrade to an Executive room!!!! Super comfy and slept well. The staff are always happy and helpful. One young lady outdid herself. A beautiful French woman who was extremely helpful. Massive credit to her. Will be back.

Stayed 3 nights, two in the queen superior room and one in the king. Got early check in for both rooms which was so helpful given the plans I had that day. The rooms were good but a bit dated, especially in the bathroom but as I was out most of the time, it was ample. The king room was spacious but the added bedroom space meant that the bathroom was more cramped. The queen room bathroom was better. Had a view of the opera house in the king room. Good proximity to harbour bridge and circular quay. A big shoutout to Christina at the front desk, she went above and beyond for my entire trip, making sure I had all that I need and was able to get my rooms sorted so quickly.

This hotel is very central, and yet the city life allow for good sleep. We did not eat at the hotel, really many good restaurants and cafes in the area. The hotel has not been upgraded in a while. If you look for fancy rooms, look elsewhere. If you need a central place to sleep, this is a good option. Really friendly staff, that is truly service minded. Bonus: roof pool (not heated), and hot tub at rooftop. Magic view day and night!
