I travel constantly for business, mostly overseas but also within Australia. Despite being a high level Hilton HHonors member I've started moving my international business away from Hilton earlier this year due to a range of concerns. I thought I'd try the Hilton in Sydney on a recent business trip just to see if it was any better at home,... more

My son & I stayed here for 4 nights in April. I have been to many large city big chain hotels in Europe & Asia and have to say that this is one of the best. The decor is minimalist, urban chic. The rooms are excellently renovated, every touch has been thought off eg no tags to hang on your... more

I had to find a Sydney hotel for an overnight stay due to business commitments. I went on to the Qantas website and booked through it. The price was fantastic because it was a Sunday night which is always cheaper. The buffet breakfast was included. It was easily the best buffet breskfast I have encountered in any Australian hotel. The... more

The title is not as bad as it sounds, more a statement about where "they" are heading. Minimalist rooms, horrible bland colours. I arrived on the 20th Feb, 0700hrs in the morning. I was expecting to have to wait until the afternoon to check in, which I was cool with. The guy at check in was great though and had... more

Stayed at the hotel over the New Year period (Dec 2006/Jan 2007). The hotel is situated on the busy thoroughfare of George Street which runs directly down to the main harbour area (Bridge and Opera House) about a 20 minute walk but is also just a short 5 minute stroll from Darling Harbour, so in an ideal situation for exploring... more

I stayed at the Hilton Sydney for 5 days while attending a conference. The room was booked through conference organisers for a "reduced rate" of $299/night (room only). I discovered afterwards that I could have got a cheaper room through wotif. Whilst the webpage states that the hotel is newly renovated, only some of the room have been renovated and... more

My wife and I stayed at the Hilton Sydney on the Easter long weekend 2008 and it was one of the most extravagant hotel experiences we have ever had. The service was unique, with the staff managing to pull off cool, hip and highly professional at the same time. On the Saturday night we had the hotel's famous 'Provocateur' package,... more

I stayed here for one night in October last year. My friend made the booking and asked for a non-smoking room. When we entered our room, the first thing that hit us was the stench of smoke. We both became annoyed. Once my friend made a call, our request to change to a non-smoking room was granted. A person was... more

Knowing we were using Hilton honors points for a free stay we were expecting the smallest room looking over the dustbins at the back.. What we actually were given was a superb suite on the 31st floor. Large bedroom with a super comfortable super king size bed. Hi tech hi spec bathroom, all glass, mirrors and marble. Two person Jacuzzi... more
