Ibis Sydney World Square - Sydney

Here on vacation...requested queen size bed. Received this, but with 2 people very hard to get back/forth in room. Very small and is not comfortable. Temperature in room under control of front desk. If you want it changed, one has to put in a request with reception. Location is great. Lots of choices for restaurants and shopping.

The hotel has the basics, no fluff. A mini fridge but no microwave with a bef and bathroom. On the small side. Promp service and very friendly staff though.

The whole bathroom needed a thorough scrub with Ajax. In the meantime, some spray-on bleach would have improved things greatly. The filter in the bathroom was clogged with dust. The carpet in the bedroom was kitchen quqlity and needed to be steam cleaned.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a well located hotel that is convenient if you need to be close to the CBD. The internal condition is starting to age. HVAC not 100% and guests have no control over TV channels - all view the same multi-lingual programme. Excellent service in the breakfast room.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The Ibis World Square is well located in downtown Sydney. The room was clean and comfortable except for the king beds which were made up of two single beds that easily rolled apart. We actually fell through to the floor. We walked to the hotel from the train station (Central Station) and easily walked to all of the downtown Sydney locations. Plenty […] of bus and other transportation is available. The worst part was a $7 per bag charge for holding our luggage for a few hours after the check-in. Read more

This Hotel is in a great location and within walking distance of all the great sights. However, the rooms were not vert clean. One evening we came in and one of the person in our group had called to complain that her room was not cleaned and the front desk told her housekeeping was closed!! Imagine that horror. My sink was visibly dirty every day I […] came in even though the beds were made. We only got two towels and 1 wash cloth...the lights in the bathroom were hanging and obviously a danger to me and my husband if it had fallen. I would not stay at this hotel again. Read more

The Ibis is in a great spot, easy walking distance to Chinatown, Sydney CBD, Oxford St area. There is no wireless internet in the rooms however and the rooms are small and basic.

I stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks while I was doing business in Sydney. The only thing going for the hotel is the location and how easy it is to get anywhere in the city. Be careful and book a room here which includes breakfast otherwise you will be stung with a nasty surprise. If you forget this go to a local cafe. You will have to pay for what they […] call broad band internet which is about the speed of dial up. I had to refresh pages a number of times well constantly to get them to load. Some cafes and fast food places offer free wifi. The initial room I was in was pretty clean except for the bathroom which had some black mold in the shower. You would think I place that gets clean regularly and was recently done up would not have that issue. Another issue which was solved by changing rooms after a week is that with some rooms if you have noisy neighbors you will know about it. It seems during the refurb they went through they have tried to squeeze in more rooms per floor. This means that there are bad seals between the windows and the walls where a wall would meet a window in the middles on the pane. Read more

Ibis Sydney World Square Hotel was a wonderful place to call home while we were in Sydney. It is 1/2 a block from the free "55" bus, that makes a loop around downtown. Therefore it's easy to get to The Rocks, Circular Quay, the Opera House, Botanic Gardens, etc. Chinatown is a block away, too. Monorail exit right at the hotel, too. couldn't ask for […] a more central location. Rooms quiet, pleasant, clean. Read more

The hotel itself is ok for local things to see. Unfortunately the rooms are so small, I felt I was being squeezed! MY end of my big trip would have been better to have gone some where like the Travelodge at Wynyard I stayed a month earlier. Because I had committed my self to 6 nights here, one night I booked another hotel to get away from it all, the […] says it!! Hotel fine, rooms small!¬! Read more

Very friendly staff. Went out of their way to assist me with my needs. Close to Central Railway, China Town and Capitol Theatre, Low cost, clean, good beds, very quiet. Close to very good shopping. No complaints. Have used it before and will use it again.

Rooms are small, location is good, service is good. Value for money. Great place if you are just sleeping in the room.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Staying at the Ibis World Square was very convenient for us being conveniently close to key tourist attraction and the Central Rail station. Plus there are lots of dining options very close to the hotel. Overall an excellent choice.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Location of the hotel is awesome. Smackbang in Sydney Cbd and a great location for shopaholics. The hotel is clean and rooms had a basic amenities that you need and the staff are extremely friendly. Only downfall probably is the size of the room, quite small for a deluxe. But overall 4/5 and would recommend to tourists who are on a budget.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We were incredibly unhappy from start to end of trip, firstly there was no direction for car parking, and the office was unhelpful in which direction to go. The bathroom was ridiculous, if i wanted to shower in a pool i would of booked a hotel with a pool. The drainage was so bad the whole bathroom was flooded after 2 showers and there was lack of towels […] to mop up the wet floor. There was lack of mirrors and power points for 4 people, it made it impossible to all be getting ready. On the last night of our stay we were invaded by a huge cockroach, which clearly shows uncleanliness of the rooms. Overall we were very unhappy with the hotel, I would never book here again.

Great location, there was a bit of maintence going on in the building especially the elevators - they were quite slow. Room was comfortable however the toilet was continually running all night so turned the cistern off. We did mention this to reception on check out.

Enjoyed my stay overall. Staff were friendly & helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The room and bathroom were far too small - the web photos are misleading. If you have two suitcases and 2 computers there is no room to move - the room should be limited to 1 person only. Suggestion - take the little tray off the bathroom shelf as it is too big so falls into the basin along with all the contents. Water pressure and temperature fluctuates […] Apologies, we are not 'precious' about accommodation but we've stayed in many hotel in Australia and our stay in the Ibis was one of the most uncomfortable.

hotel in good location to entertainment centre which was the purpose that I was in sydney for.

I would not stay at Ibis again. The air-conditioning did not work on the first evening, the tv did not work. The bathroom had hairs on the floor obviously not cleaned.

Friendly service and located in heart of city.

Expectations not overly high - 3 star hotel. But good nonetheless.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is located in World Squre, a busy hub of central Sydney. The noise coming from surrounding bars and clubs was ridiculous until around 2-3am most nights, there is also a Erotic club open 24 hours per day that is next door. The house keeping service was very annoying also, I was out of the hotel most days by 9am and would come back around 2 […] or 3pm, the room still not had been cleaned, they would trun up at 5pm or on the ocasiaon it had been done in the morning (once) they came back 2 further times whilst i was trying to have a nap, they also took the do not disturb sign from the room so i could not advertise if i was in or not.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This Hotel has one thing going for it - Its location. Its handy for all the major sights, the Opera House, Harbour bridge, Darling Harbour, The Manly Ferry terminal, buses to Bondi beach etc are easy to catch. The hotel itself isn't great, was very over priced although did go over the New Year period so every hotel was going to rip you off like they […] do everywhere. Check in was very slow, turned up at about 2:30pm and had to wait 45 mins for room to be available. The excuse was that they were busier than they had anticipated. I had just paid 3 time the usual price for the night! I would have thought they could have worked out they would be busy! Room was minute, not much more than a foot between bed a nd wall in most places. Iron leaked, air conditioning leaked onto bed. TV quality was so bad as to be unwatchable. The walls were incredibly thin, the convesations from next door could be heard easily. The staff however were great and very helpfull, but you can only work with what you are given. Basically if you want a room to sleep in but not be able to spend any other time in then this is fine, if you want to spend time in your room then forget it. Read more

Whilst most people wouldn't expect much of an Ibis hotel, I was disappointed that simple things seemed too hard... The swipe machine in the lift for your room key was so temperamental that most people gave up and waited for the other lift, the towels were very thin, the doors and walls could have been made for cardboard given their sound insulating […] qualities etc etc. If you can find a cheap rate then this is a basic budget hotel that is close to interesting places to eat and a short walk into the heart of the city.

For the purpose of our exercise i.e to be close to the Entertainment Centre the Hotel was perfect for one night. We were upgraded to a room with an extra bed for a child and the staff went out of their way to be helpful.

Basic, no frills hotel located in central part of city. Easy walk to airport train and downtown sights. Thin walls. Very average experience.

I would definitely stay here again - fabulous location, great service, comfortable beds, every necessity you may need is in the room and the cleanliness was good too. Very happy!

On arrival our airconditioning was not working & the bed reading lights were not working. We were told they could not do anything about it until the next day but did give us a free breakfast . The next morning we were woken at 6.30am by workman banging on the roof above us(we were on top floor) & beside us. Our room was changed for the rest of our stay […] but in the second room the TV was faulty & we had to keep fiddling with wiring to make it work. The staff were very pleasant but I felt for the price we paid the hotel was not up to standard. Read more

Everything you would expect from an Ibis hotel, clean comfy room, however there are other cheaper options that are just as good! They also tried to bill me $20 for a movie I hadnt watched but agreed to not charge me in the end.

The bathroom would have needed a makeover, and the plug of the sink was closed when I arrived with no option to open it ... water hat to stay in, not very comfortable or hygenic. Otherwise fine
