the location is excellent, however, the service was average. Too long a line for check out given the circumstances. Room not serviced on the second day,understand the lack of changing sheets, but no cleaning at all was an issue. Reception was curt on check in.Supposed to have had access to lounge but no one said anything about facilities or location.... More

My mother and I spent two nights here over the June long weekend to attend the Hair Expo at the Convention Centre. Stayed at a great rate, considering it was a long weekend during Vivid. Two nights save 20%. It was a standard room so I anticipated something really pokey, but it was much better than expected. Our room overlooked... More

Close to everything and very good service. It is in the best place to see shows or just have a nice meal but car parks there are not so get the train. I found the only thing possibly wrong was we could not eat in as the Pumphouse supplied the food for the hotel but room service was the same... More

We stayed at the Novotel Rockford as we were seeing a show at the entertainment centre next door. I had a complimentary night at any Accor hotel and I'm so glad I chose this one (and would happily pay to stay!). The location was fantastic to be able to walk to everywhere we wanted to go and the staff were... More

The Novotel Rockford at Darling Harbour is an ideal location with easy access to all the central activities and scenic tourist places you could want. It is a nice 20 minute walk to The Rocks, or longer if you want to window shop etc, easy walk to any eating or drinking preference you may have. For a central easy to... More

I have stayed at this hotel on a number of occasions, but the reason for staying here is primarily it's location - adjacent to the Sydney Entertainment Centre. Very convenient when seeing a concert or show. The service is good and the staff friendly. On the downside, the rooms are small and The Pumphouse Restaurant very ordinary. Both on this... More

Great hotel if you are going to see a show at the Entertainment Centre. Checking was a little problem room was not ready, even though we where checking in at the nominated time, they gave 2 drink vouchers for the pumphouse bar. Little problem was the parking had to search for a parking spot at the Entertainment Car park.

Stayed here one night for business in May 2013. Hotel was a little out of the way for the business meeting in the CBD, but for a tourist on the go it is well located close to Darling Harbour and Chinatown. Room was clean and tidy, but not particularly spacious. Breakfast was 4/5 and the staff were friendly.
