Many have been impressed by the spacious and modern rooms, featuring amenities like smart controls for lighting and air conditioning, plus luxurious bathrooms with both showers and bathtubs; the Waratah-themed closet is a recurring highlight.

convenient dariling harbour stay

harbour location early checkin helpful staff
the location overlooking darling harbour was great. trains, light rail, and ferries were easily accessible. the staff were friendly and helpful.
The pool area on level 29 is very cold, as it is open air. A roof to protect swimmers from the cold wind would improve this.

breakfast disappointment stupid design
Honestly, the breakfast was a HUGE letdown. Paying that much, I expected more than just adequate. It bordered on ordinary. finding the light above the desk in the room was a hazard. I kept banging my head on it. It was a stupid design.

The location was great. I could walk to many places for dining around the hotel.
The check-in was quite bad. The lobby area was small and crowded. The person at check-in did not explain any of the facilities, I found that unhelpful.
