“Great Location, everything you need.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

we stayed here on the weekend, it was a work trip with 4 guys. we had a two bedroom apartment with 4 single beds. the room was spacious enough and clean.
The noises in the early hours of Saturday were a little noisy at times but nothing bad enough to ruin your sleep.
Fantastic location and very reasonable price.
we found the staff to be very friendly.

“Great location, quiet and clean”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

We stayed recently in a 2 bedroom apartment. The bedrooms were very spacious, both with king sized beds. The kitchen was well equipped, however the dining chairs and lounge chairs were very worn.
The apartment was clean and very quiet.

“Nice stay in Sydney”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

We were with 3 children from Noumea during two weeks for the first time; the apartment was very quiet; service was very clean. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The building has got a very central situation in the CBD close to famous TOWNHALL train station, George Street shops, restaurants and night entertainments, close to Darling Harbour and also close to Chinatown.
Very safe place for family with children and also good night rate.

“Small and basic”

Whilst the hotel is well located the room has the bare minimum. It's clean but the control for AC on the wall is for show the AC is controlled is centralised. The $100 bond on check in is taken immediately but I was told it could take up to 10 days to be recredited. Staff are not helpful and not interested or appear so. Suggest you look around you can find better than this tired hotel!

Dear Asterix2903,

Thank you for posting the comments regarding your recent stay at the Medina Grand Sydney.

I appreciate the time you have taken to provide us with your feedback. We are pleased to see that you have found our hotel to be well positioned, but are sorry to see that you have found our rooms to be small and basic. Generally 1 and 2 bedroom apartments offer more living space, greater range of cooking facilities and/or laundry facilities. Our room and apartment range is well described on our website.
I have also noted your comments regarding air conditioning system at the hotel. I wanted to assure you that I will pass your comments on to the relevant department though to ensure that all rooms are checked and that all air conditioning controllers work in order. I do however apologise for this part of your hotel experience.
All your comments will be discussed with all our team members to ensure that we will improve our service qualities in the future.
We will be very happy to welcome you at the hotel again and will endeavour to ensure that your next visit will be more enjoyable as the one that you have described above.
I wanted to assure you that any feedback is of the highest value to us, so if you would like to discuss any part of your stay in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at the hotel.

“OK but disappointed about bookings”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

person found this review helpful

We looked fwd to using an apartment for 4 nights only to be told that there was "maintenance" issues with the appt over the Australia Day holiday....I Don't think so, it was obvious there were people in the room. So that was disappointing...and the "compensation" was poor. The rooms however were quite reasonable. Would I go back....maybe

Room Tip: Be sure you don't get moved on public holidays
