Standard Marriott predictability. Great location and depending on your room, you overlook the harbour and opera house, with plenty of restaurants around the hotel or a block or two away. Front desk staffs seem overworked and tired. Breakfast was quite lacking in selection and a bit of a zoo, it was really tough to get coffee or any sort of... more

i visited sydney with friends in september...we stayed two three-day weekends at the marriott sydney harbour @ circular quay, and went driving to the blue mountains, the hunter valley wine country, and the coastal area to the north on the five days in between. in the interest of full disclosure...i'm pretty much a two & three-star hotel kind of guy...... more

We found a Qantas package deal in the winter and couldn't pass it up. We spent 6 days in Sydney with our 14 year old son and loved every minute of it. I had chosen the Marriott Sydney Harbour for its location, and upgraded for the Opera View-worth every penny (see photos from our window). I think we took photos... more

Although the location is ideal if you want to be downtown and in the heart of the city, if you are used to Marriott hotels in the States (large rooms, great ammenities, friendly staff, up-to-date decor and electronics), be prepared for a rude awakening. This is probably a great hotel to stay in for one night on business. But NOT... more

This is a quality hotel at a desirable location. Rooms have been updated on Executive level 30th floor. Lounge is much better than US properties and compares favorably with Hong Kong and Singapore Marriotts although food selection is not as good.

We arrived at 9:00 a.m. after an all night flight. No problem with early check-in. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable, and we actually could glimpse the Circular Quay area from our window. The concierge was very helpful with directions and maps. The buffet breakfast, which was included in the room price, was fabulous, with... more

We went to Australia for the first time and started our trip in Sydney. We got in at 8:00am and were worried that our room would not be ready. We got right it, which was wonderful, wanted to take a shower and then get to exploring. If your room is not ready, there is a special suite available to relax... more

My husband & I went to Australia for our 30th wedding anniversary. We used our Marriott points for the room & paid for an upgrade to a harbour view room. The upgrade was worth it, to view Sydney Harbour and the Sydney Opera House at various times during the day from our room was breathtaking. The Marriott is located one... more

The location is perfect. But the rooms can use some refreshments. Service is average. But I am used at the Asian level of service. Go for a brekkie in the neighbourhood! more
