My husband and I stayed here with friends Xmas 2005. The location is absolutelyt fabulous - it's a short and lovely walk to Darling Harbour. The hotel was usual Novotel standards - nothing special, but clean, tidy and comfortable. more

Must say it was one of the BEST rooms that I have ever stayed in.Clean ,quite, room was lovely and the bathroom HUGE and... more

I liked the Rockford for two major reasons. The staff was great and helped out even doing a rush job on cleaning a stained shirt. The second reason was being on the far end of the park from the harbor, very quiet and a nice walk to the harbor. The Pumphouse bar is connected to the end of the hotel,... more

I stayed here for a rewards night I was attending at the Star City Casino and loved the hotel. The only downside was the noise from the nightclub downstairs. I've stayed in a few places at Darling Harbour/Haymarket but this hotel was the nicest, the bed was huge, nice views over Chinatown Gardens, close to everything. You can walk to... more

Also by the convention centre and a red bus stop. The rooms are clean, quiet and the service is great. Breakfast is a little on the pricy side, but there are... more

Stayed from 24 - 28 Sep. We chose it because it was conveniently located near the convention hall and Chinatown. Was staying on level 4 .The room wasn't as new as my colleague who was staying on level 7. As a business traveller, I am expecting the wireless internet to work well. To my disappointment, internet connectivity was very slow.... more

We decided to prolong our holiday after our cruise by spending 2 days and a night in Sydney. Not knowing Sydney at all, after much searching online we found this hotel at $169 for the night including breakfast. Check in was officially 2pm, but when we arrived at just after 11am we were told our room was ready. We were... more

I chose the hotel due to it's location. Being near the Convention Centre was perfect as I had a business convention to attend there. I was pleasantly surprised at how conveniently located everything was. The rooms were fairly large and spacious - particularly the bathrooms. Check in was EXCELLENT. Arrived early morning and had booked 3 room as I was... more
