5/5 Excellent
"Great place to stay! Rooms are clean and fresh - blockout blinds are good for those who struggle with light in the room. Breakfast had great variety including dairy free options. Location is perfect close to everything very walkable. "

"Shangri la is one of the best 5 star hotels i have stayed at. i have stayed here 3 times now over 10years so i have a before and after perspective. the staff smile, check in and out is seamless, when i stayed here 10 yrs ago they gifted a complimentery bottle of champagne (wedding day)as they did with my
recent stay (anniversary). the view from the room, altitude restaurant is awesome. the buffet breakfast was awesome too, we also recieved complimentary champagne forbreakfast from our waitress heidy to celebrate our anniversary, classy without question. buffet breakfast was awesome, i can recommend the chorizo and beans hot meal and the aussie breakfast (you get a hot meal plus buffet brekky), the buffet has great pastries, cold cuts, juice with lots of choices really i was offered breakfast at $49 pp rather than $67, at check in. i always imagine im in hong kong or singapore or shanghai, i like the atmosphere very much. room service is awesome, certainly humungous meals, at some places you look at the menu pics and the order arrives disappointingly small, not at shangri la, massive bowl of chips, massive burger and chips, massive roast chicken dinner and awesome wok tossed fried wings, yummm. Shangri La is my goto for class."

"Had an excellent stay at Sydney Harbour Hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful and the area felt very safe, excellent options for food and shopping in the area, and the fact that its in the perfect spot for the attractions, close to public transport. Our favourite of it all was the rooftop heated pool and spa, and watching the sunset and rise up there, Priceless."

"This hotel is an easy walk from the train station and the wharf where you can find every ferry. It’s clean, convenient, and had everything I needed for my 2 day stay. They stores my luggage too which really helped as I had a late flight. "
