Overview

The Hilton Sydney is a modern, 30-storey city centre hotel, overlooking the Queen Victoria Building, 100 metres from the Town Hall train station. The 577 guestrooms all feature contemporary decor with polished wood floors or wall panels, and are equipped with cable television with pay channels and on-demand movies, PlayStations, high-speed and dial-up Internet connections, clock radios, safes and tea and coffee making facilities. Bathrooms include tubs, showers and hair dryers.
The hotel's LivingWell Health Club offers a 25-metre heated indoor pool, complete with swimming lanes, in- house instructors and a children's splash pool. Guests can work up a sweat on the fitness equipment then unwind in the sauna or spa tub and enjoy healthy drinks from the juice bar. The Glass Brasserie is a high-ceilinged restaurant characterised by colourful and large-scale abstract artworks, and a menu offering classic French. In the evenings, guests can enjoy live music in the Marble Bar, a preserved Victorian bar that serves cocktails, canapés and Australian ales, or sample a selection of boutique beers at the lively GAB bar. The hotel houses 23 meeting and conference rooms and a ballroom which is able to accommodate up to 1,000 delegates. A range of office services are available in the business centre, including secretarial support and typing. The concierge and 24-hour front desk staff are on hand to assist with luggage, arrange babysitting and dry-cleaning services and advise on local sights and attractions. Sydney's old quarter, The Rocks, one kilometre from the hotel, is built upon a sandstone ledge where the First Fleet mariners came ashore in 1788 and claimed Australia as a British settlement. Today, the district's cobbled streets offer cafes, restaurants, historic pubs and panoramic harbour views. Sydney Airport is 19 kilometres away, with an approximate driving time of 25 minutes.

The hotel is very nice we stayed there twice a total of over a week. But both times the room was so small despite the second stay we had an "upgrade" yet the room was basically the same. The food was not cheap but was not good either. Expect to pay $40 for breakfast and I had shell in my eggs. There are some great breakfast places around town where you can get a good meal.

We found a fantastic deal (buy 1 night get 1 free) & we were excited about staying at the Hilton in Sydney. The service was fantastic & the staff were always willing to go that extra step to ensure we were happy. The reception area was always buzzing - but - there were enough staff / managers floating around if you needed to ask a quick question. The breakfast was just delicious, despite a hangover, we made the most of the variety of juices / cooked breaksfast / fruits / pastries etc etc All in all it was the best way to spend our last nights in Australia & we will definately be back when we return next year!

Special thanks to all the staff who attended us in Hilton Sydney. My daughter and I had a wonderful time. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The room was small but very comfortable and clean. The location is excellent - close to Town Hall train station and the Monorail station as well. To us who do not drive, this is marvelous. We went to the Royal Easter Show and transportation was not a problem at all. The fitness centre and their equipment was magnificent. Consider the money that I paid for this five star service and environment, I highly recommended it to all other travelers. I flew to Melbourne after my 4 nights in Hilton Sydney and I needed to pay even more for less satisfactory service in a four star hotel near Southern Cross station.

Every staff member we came in contact with was friendly and helpful. We wanted to check in early and leave our bags at the front and they immediately upgraded our room and registered us right there. We were up in our upgraded room with a fantastic view of the city within minutes. The room was immaculate and the bed was the most comfortable we had been in. The location was directly across from the Queen Victoria Building and a convienent bus stop was 1/2 block away for sightseeing. Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance.

All in all, not a bad hotel, but there were two things that really bothered me about out stay. 1. The mini-bar hadn't been dusted in a long time. All the food (chips, wine etc.) clearly hadn't been touched and I really don't want to eat something that's covered in a layer of dust - who knows how long it's been sitting there. 2. We asked the Concierge several questions about the location of certain things in Sydney (movie theatre, where to get food on a Sunday evening). He was less than pleasant and less than helpful. We managed to find these things on our own after walking around the city for some time.

Not recommended Trip type: Family "Design Issue"

Reviewed by Jane of Chicago on Dec 11, 2008

We weren't sure if we got a disabled room, but the design of the bathroom was such that there was a shower "area" moreso than a shower "stall". When taking a shower, the entire bathroom flooded... we had commented the night before that we had never seen tile in the entryway before, and after showering, we figured it was to prevent the rug getting wet. Otherwise the hotel room was nice but a bit small and concierge service was very helpful.

Was a sublime location, walking distance of Darling Harbour, Circular Quay, Harbour Bridge and China Town. The room (King Executive) was great, very clean with a priceless view over George Street. Beds where comfortable with sliding blinds great for keeping out the dark. Perfect for a weekend away with the missus. Will certainly be staying there again.

Not recommended Trip type: All Others "Hotel room sizes too small"

Reviewed by Elizabeth of New York on Nov 5, 2008

As the location of this hotel is good , the hotel it self is not. Hilton hotel rooms are way too small if you want to stay for your vacations. It is Ok if you on business trip or transit but for a longer stay the rooms are way too small as well the bathrooms having a glass walls is not a good idea. Also the Executive Lounge is not up to the 4 star hotel, the Lounge is busier then the hotel cafe , long lines for breakfast, or the evening drinks, first time I've seen a sign at the executive lounge- Please wait to be seated! Better off going to the restaurants in town - you get more for your money then what you paid for the Lounge use.Also the hotel management should think of having a electronic card entrance to the Lounge, right now anybody can come from the street.I do not recommend this hotel for stay more than 2 days stay.

No complaints at all for a 24 hour layover. Walking distance to Rocks, Opera House, Ferries, Darling Harbour etc. Single woman and I felt safe walking at night, lots of people around. One small problem was that the sink didn't drain very well - no big deal. Room very comfortable with all the ammenities.

Première impression plutôt bonne, spacieux, studieux. Moins : Arrivé dans la chambre, pièce assez froide, impersonnelle, manques de couleurs, parfait pour le biseness. Douche sympa (la tv encastré ne fonctionnait pas, nous avons deux contacter par trois reprises le service de l’hôtel pour réparation). Plus : Piscine, spa, salle de sport, très sympa.

Anbefales virkelig, hotellet var med på å gjøre Sydney til det stedet som imponerte mest på reisen i Australia. Veldig god frokost, fantastisk utsikt fra etasjene lenger opp (43 etasjer). Fant en bra pris på internet, hadde kostet dobbelt om det var i Norge. Også ligger det midt i smørøyet. Kan kun gi skryt her :)
