Overall an excellent experience. Initially they put me in a room that stunk of smoke. Even though the hotel is all non-smoking, some people can't help themselves. But that was quite a drag. Anyway, they moved me quickly, but importantly apologized too many times. Nonetheless, like the other Marriott hotels I have stayed in, excellent beds, pillows and a comfortable... More

The hotel was outstanding from the well-appointed room, the excellent business center, to the concierge service. .The hotel location also provided access to the DBC and the tourist sites.

Stayed in this hotel over the New Year period and it was quite busy at the time. Prices were also more expensive at this time but we got what we paid for in so far as the beds were clean and the bathroom was accesible, (though not located in the room) The hotel itself had a warm atmosphere, with a...

It is noisy at... More

I stayed at this place as soon as I arrived in Sydney. As I was so desperate to have somewhere to sleep I made the mistake of booking for 4 weeks - it seemed OK when I was jetlagged. I stayed in a single room - it was a dump and very noisy at night. The local train station is... More
