A very nice small hotel. It is not a small hotel, but a fairly large hotel. It is said to be the earliest international hotel in Sydney. The service staff are very polite, the service is very good and satisfactory. The price is a bit expensive, suitable for business couples and families. We will come again next time.

It's not bad. The attractions you want to visit are all around. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the Sydney Opera House and about 20 to other places.

Stayed for three consecutive days, satisfied
Good location, very convenient for going to attractions and shopping, opera house, Hyde Park, etc., walk for more than ten minutes.
Upgraded to a large suite, very spacious, welcome wine and snacks were prepared.
Can't get up at breakfast time, ordered a meal to be delivered to the room, tasted good.

The mattress and pillows are very comfortable, the sound insulation is good, and it is convenient to go to tourist attractions. The room and bathroom are small. The bed and pillows were very comfortable.

How can I describe this hotel? It's not particularly good, but it's not bad either. The location is very good, it's only a 10-minute walk to the opera house. There are many office buildings around, and there are not many people at night, so it's quite quiet. The service is not very good. You can check in by yourself, but you still need to find a service staff if you need multiple room cards. There is only one bathroom in the exquisite suite. Someone on Ctrip made a random comment saying that there are two, but it's possible that there is only one bathroom in my room. The telephone line in the room is under maintenance and it doesn't work at all. During my stay, I wanted to ask for more beds and quilts. After going down to the lobby on the first floor to find the service staff and talking to them, they didn't deliver them to the room for a long time. I went downstairs again to ask, but they said there were no quilts. If there were no quilts, shouldn't they come up and tell me! It's strange that such a big hotel doesn't have an extra quilt. Other services are not bad. The doorman takes the initiative to pick up and put down the luggage and close the car door.

This Sofitel is closer to the Opera House, but it takes about 15 minutes to walk to the Opera House. There is a Royal Botanic Garden nearby. It is recommended to stay at this hotel on the day of the Opera House.

The location is excellent. If you don't want to go up and down the slope, the Central Interchange subway station is right in front of the hotel.
Although the building is old, it is the first international five-star hotel in Australia, but after renovation, it is still in line with the modern, simple and comfortable style.
There are many self-service machines for check-in and check-out at the front desk, which is very convenient.
Except for the pillow, it feels very old and smells when you lie down. Everything else is pretty standard, and there are two Virgin gyms in cooperation.
If the price is right, I will consider it next time

Very, very good hotel, within walking distance of Circular Quay, you can go to Sydney Opera House after dropping off your luggage, very close. The hotel environment is very good, the facilities are very new, especially the mattress, which is really comfortable~ What impressed me most was the hotel service, the service staff are very friendly, the cleaning staff is also very friendly, and they are also very enthusiastic when you need help. The hotel has a self-service area for chick in and chick out, which is very convenient. I will stay here again when I come back~

It’s definitely not as good as the five-star hotels in China, but it’s pretty good. After all, prices are high abroad and the location is good!

The hotel is very clean, with complete facilities and good toiletries. Although the decoration is a bit smelly, it is very new and the flaws are not enough to hide the advantages. The location of the hotel is very convenient, and you can enter from both the front and back doors, which is very convenient. All are very good.

We booked a suite, which was very big and could sleep three people. We received red wine and chocolates upon check-in, and someone helped us with our luggage. The most important thing is that the location is very convenient, and 99% of the attractions are within walking distance! Very cost-effective, highly recommended!

Impeccable hotel.
Excellent location, 3 minutes walk to Martin Place, Circular Quay, Opera House, Art Gallery, Botanical Gardens, Municipal Building are all within walking distance.
Rich breakfast, diverse choices, elegant environment.
The room is fully equipped and just renovated this year, with soft lighting, exquisite furniture, comfortable bedding, and warm living.
Proper service, worthy of the reputation of a legendary five-star hotel.
The only drawback is that there is no swimming pool, but the disadvantages are not enough, fully recommended!
