De ce o iubesc oamenii

8.8⭐2115 recenzii
  • The window seats (chaise lounges) in the rooms are basically private viewing decks
  • Club InterContinental on Level 31 is widely considered the best hotel lounge in Sydney
  • Location is unbeatable: steps from Circular Quay, Botanic Gardens, and the Opera House

Privire rapidă: You are paying for the view and the address; the rooms are crisp and modern but compact, and everything else (breakfast, parking) costs extra.

Evaluat de @travelergweneats: We flew in from Fiji and checked straight into this gem. The Harbour Bridge view from our window seat was unreal—we spent hours just watching the city. Plus, the rooftop cocktails at Aster Bar were the perfect way to end the night. Highly recommend for a romantic Sydney trip!

The hype

The views are worth every penny, but the breakfast queue can be chaotic.

Reality check

Standard 'City View' rooms can feel underwhelming compared to the harbour-facing ones—upgrade or you'll have FOMO.

  • You're a loyalty status chaser (IHG Diamond/Ambassador treatment is strong here)
  • You want to walk to the Opera House in under 5 minutes
  • You appreciate a proper club lounge with actual dinner-worthy food and drinks

Înainte să rezervi

Bine de știut

  • The 'Early Arrival Lounge' is a lifesaver for international flights landing at 6am—shower and coffee before check-in.
  • The rooftop bar 'Aster' is open to the public, but Club Lounge guests get exclusive access to a separate section.
  • Check-in is at 3:00 PM, but they are strict about it unless you have status.

Ce să împachezi

  • Universal power adapter (outlets are Type I)
  • Smart casual clothes for the Club Lounge (no swimwear/gym gear allowed)
  • Running shoes for the Botanic Gardens loop across the street

Geniu pentru Cameră

Selecții de top

  • East Harbour View rooms (high floor) for sunrise over the Botanic Gardens and quieter mornings
  • Harbour Bridge View rooms for the iconic 'coat hanger' view (best for photos)
  • Club InterContinental rooms to bundle the lounge access (often cheaper than paying for breakfast/drinks separately)

Camere de evitat

  • Low-floor City View rooms (mostly look at office buildings)
  • Rooms near the elevator banks (can be noisy)

“I would love a room with one of the signature window seats, preferably on a high floor (20+) facing the East Harbour for a view of the Botanic Gardens. If possible, away from the elevators.”

Tot ceea ce vrei de fapt să știi înainte de a rezerva.

Is the Club InterContinental worth the extra cost?

Yes. It includes breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening canapés/drinks with the best view in the hotel. Given Sydney dining prices, it often pays for itself.

Yes, a heated indoor pool on Level 31. It's not huge, but it has incredible harbour views.

Is it pet friendly?

Yes, dogs are allowed in specific rooms for a fee (approx. $80-$120 AUD), but you must book the 'Pet Getaway' package.

How much is breakfast?

Buffet breakfast at The Conservatory is around $50 AUD per adult if not included in your rate.

Is there construction noise?

Yes, there is a major development project down the street at 93-97 Macquarie St (through 2025/26) that may cause noise during business hours.

Can I walk to the Opera House?

Absolutely. It's a flat, easy 5-7 minute walk.

Sfaturi de Insider

  • ✨

    Skip the hotel breakfast queue and grab a coffee/pastry at 'Kahii' just around the corner on Phillip St.

  • ✨

    The 'Treasury' bar in the lobby is inside the original 1851 heritage building and is stunningly quiet in the afternoons.

  • ✨

    You can access the Royal Botanic Gardens directly across the street—perfect for a jetlag-busting morning run.

5 lucruri pe care trebuie să le știi înainte să pleci

  • 💡The elevators can be slow during peak checkout times (10-11am).

  • 💡The 'City View' rooms often just look directly into office windows—keep your curtains closed.

  • 💡Room service has a steep delivery fee (~$8 AUD) plus the surcharge.

  • 💡The pool area has limited lounge chairs; go early (7am) or late (8pm) to snag one.

  • 💡The 'window seat' is comfortable enough to sleep on for a child or small adult.
