Very impressed for the price we paid! 1 star to the hotel staff who were lovely to deal with and very helpful, even showing us the bus routes. 1 star for the check-in experience and upgraded room. 1 star for the cleanliness and facilities in the entire establishment. 1 star for the breakfast which at $20 a head was a bargain! 1 star for the location and ease of commute from Central Station. Very impressed with this hotel and its staff. I had emailed prior to our arrival to see if we could check-in earlier and received a very polite email back to say it may not be possible depending on room availability, which I completely appreciate. However when we got there around 11am the staff were very accommodating and booked us into a room immediately. Not only that, but we were upgraded to the top floor! The rooms were exceptionally clean and the bed was actually comfy! I was also impressed that shortly after going into our room the phone rang and it was reception asking if everything was okay - which it was. We felt very VIP staying here. 11/10 would stay here again :)

Great hotel with decent amenities. As a Gold member we received some great perks with the hotel such as free parking and $50 dining voucher. The hotel is very close to Darling harbor, China Town, and the ICC. Also just minutes away from George street.

The Sydney Central hotel is a 3 minute walk to the light rail, 900 metres from the capital theatre and 5 minutes to Darling Harbour. While she is beginning to show her age the rooms are clean, comfortable and the staff are lovely. My wife and I liked our room service dinner. We walked up to World square the to Pitt st mall and shopped. Caught the light rail back to Haymarket and walked back to the hotel. Easy walk back to Capital theatre to see a show. Walked to Darling Harbour for dinner and then walked easily back to the hotel. All in all a great stay. We will go back.

Bathroom had a few hairs not cleaned. It seemed otherwise clean but a bad impression. This was a completely upgraded room though so I wonder if it was done to turn over and use if not used recently. Staff were friendly enough when needed. The room service was expensive for the quality but adequate for room service.
