You ever see an ad for a gorgeous vehicle for a great price and then when you get in and drive off,…read more you realized it's not what you expected? You find old fries within the crevices, you can smell the old owners cologne and you begin to question its reliability? However, the more you drive it, you begin to get used to it's smells and realize that you would rather have that old POS vehicle then nothing at all....... that's what this hotel feels like. It's in an excellent location. Right across the street from Hyde Park and in walking distance to the harbor, opera house and many other places. You drive up and their lobby is nice and clean and their front desk personnel is dressed well. The photos looked good, and I couldn't wait to get to my room to unwind. Parking was an extra $50 ASD per night, but most of the parking downtown is pricey.... we made it in to their tiny garage and found a spot. Got to the room and didn't know how to use the key fob for the lift...eventually got to the room and the key card wouldn't work. Got into their tiny lift again to talk to the front desk and waited a while because their tiny lift can only fit 11 persons.... and I think there are only two lifts. Plus the 2nd floor is some massage school packed with Vietnamese students going up and down the lifts...... ugh! Anyway, we finally get to the room and ...... it's mediocre. The plumbing wasn't that great, the ac kept making this weird vibrating noise periodically that kept me up the first night, I had a view of the top of another building (and I was in the 3rd floor), the oven/stove thing didn't fit the counter right so it was hanging. Oh ya they charge for Wi-Fi after tricking u into using their 30minute complimentary Wi-Fi. Let's just say all in all, for the price it beats staying in a hostel, however, maybe next time I would consider paying the extra $$. I think we paid $160/night USD and then an extra $50 ASD a night for parking. Their pool was ok, the route to the pool and sauna was a little sketchy.. and their fitness room was tiny. The weather was nice so I utilized the outdoors for running. Would I stay here again? Maybe not, but I wasn't entirely disappointed because the location was the best thing about this place. Plus the hotel wasn't horrible, it was just .....meh..... ok. The front desk guy and girl were friendly..... didn't see much of them for the duration of my trip.

The housekeeper was a dismal failure who did not properly clean our room and refill the body wash, shampoo, and conditioner in the shower. I even tipped well and did not get the most basic service. The room itself is spacious with a mini frig that's cold, a coffee maker, flat screen TV and comfortable bed. Restaurant on 1st floor, gym on 12th floor, and laundry on bottom floor. There is a bar area in the lobby area, Overall very nice hotel.

Amazing two night stay at the Fullerton Hotel Sydney…read more Housed in the former General Post Office, the hotel is steeped in history. The former GPO was constructed in phases. Beginning in 1866, the first phase opened in 1874. It was the first major building to open in Sydney. In 1891, the clock tower rang its bells for the first time. The Grand Staircase is stunning. Heritage Tours guide visitors through the historic icon. Today, you can stay in the historic GPO or the added modern tower. Our upper room suites were so quiet and comfortable. Definitely add breakfast to your reservation. So nice to sit in the elevated lobby overlooking the courtyard of the historic General Post Office. The hot entrees, cook to order omelettes or eggs, salad bar, cheese bar, fruits and pastries were so delicious. The spring rolls were so hot and tasty. Chocolate croissants filled with chocolate creme were divine. The onion twists were addictive. Love the cooked veggies, hashbrowns and fresh pineapple. Ask for fresh orange or pineapple juice, a latte, cappuccino or hot cocoa. Love the TWG selection of teas. Earl Grey. English breakfast. Waterfruit green tea. Original sencha. Grand jasmine. So many choices. Location is so convenient. Easy to catch the Hop On Hop Off bus, walk to the park, visit the Sydney Tower, or explore the stunning Queen Victoria Arcade. So many shopping malls close by as well. Sudeep and Milos were very helpful with my parents' electronics when they had challenges that I could not address. Thanks for the industrial strength adapter for their electronics. Thanks also for the Happy Anniversary welcome card and cake to help my parents celebrate a very special 60th anniversary. Such a sweet surprise! Highly recommend this Sydney landmark for an unforgettable stay in the heart of the city.

Food courts, attractions, local transportation, shopping, literally everything. Guess that is the plus side to staying at a hotel in the CBD district. I enjoy the many amenities the hotel had to offer. The restaurant and bar on the inside, as well as meeting rooms to hang out with friends and family. The blackout curtains in the room were fantastic! I'm the type of person that likes to sleep and pitch black room. The only thing I dislike about the room, especially being a five star hotel, there's a fact that there was not a microwave in the room. There was a mini fridge. I don't really have any pictures in the hotel or the room. The two pictures I attached one inch of you for my room and the other is a picture out front of the hotel.

Usually, I feel like the employees emphasize hospitality like always having a smile and going above and beyond when it comes to service. Hyatt has always been just that but in Sydney the hospitality definitely missed the mark. I'm not sure how Australia defines "customer service", we didnt get smiles, maps of the surrounding area or any genuine conversations. Usually the front desk agents enquire about where your traveling from and ask questions like how long are you here for etc. I did notice there was a big conference going on so they might have been overwhelmed but after visiting a few surrounding restaurants I think I'm just spoiled by American Customer Service. Nice hotel, in the heart of Sydneys CBD; I found it easy to get to my destinations like the zoo and the aquarium. So many things to do within a 5 mile radius. They didn't have a pool which was a little disappointed but overall I enjoyed my stay because I was always in the city. Not much to do at the resort which felt more like a hotel for business purposes.

Our cruise travel agent booked us at this hotel to enjoy four days of pre-cruise exploring Sydney,…read moreAU. After being in airports and in flight for nearly 24 hours to get from Honolulu to Sydney, we were glad that our room was available by noon, as we wanted to quickly unpack and grab a power nap before walking into nearby Chinatown, browsing shopping areas and eateries, and familiarizing ourselves with the CBD (Central Business District). Check-in was friendly and helpful, providing information about our surroundings, walkable areas of interest, and pre-cruise transportation arrangements from the hotel to the cruise terminal. Our room was clean, bright, and overlooked Sussex Street. But, hey, we weren't expecting a view of Darling Harbour since we were hardly spending time indoors. Although our room faced busy Sussex Street, we hardly heard any street noise or disturbances below us. Since we're from the US, we brought the appropriate travel plug adapter and power converter, but we also knew we could've asked for one at the front desk or guest services. The housekeeping staff were polite and kept our room sparkling, and we made sure to use the appropriate door hangers so the staff would know whether we were in the room or not when they came by during their cleaning schedule. If we ever return to Sydney, we'd not hesitate to stay here as this location is just a stone's throw (800 m or 2624 ft) from Barangaroo Wharf or Ferry Terminal, to Circular Quay (about 1.8 km or 0.621 mi), or to Chinatown (1.1 km or 0.683 mi). If you're not "walkers," you should also know that Sydney has a vibrant transportation system, including public subways, buses, and ferries.

Positives: The room was avail early. Greatly appreciated after a 15 hr direct flight. We wanted to clean up b4 exploring "Harbor City"; Staff was super friendly & helpful. Mini bar items were complimentary; Good location in Barangaroo, a neighborhood on the edge of CBD. Plenty of bars & restaurants within walking distance; Negatives: Small 250 sf room. An upgrade to a 500 sf suite would have cost $180 AUD more per night; No lanai (patio) to take in the fresh air; No wand in the shower; No Executive lounge; No pool; No view for being so close to Darling Harbour; No local restaurant recs via the app like other Hiltons I have stayed at; Tiny gym; The No's (negatives), far outweigh the positives: I would not stay here again.
