Stayed here for 2 nights on a business trip - location is great, just opposite QVB and so within walking distance of the CBD and the harbour. The rooms are a decent size and well laid out, although the bathroom is quite cramped, but did have both a bath and separate shower room which was great. Usual amenities like ironing... More

The hotel is ok - the rooms are tiny. I had a refurbished room which was ok. Rooms in other 5 star hotels in Sydney are much bigger. But the worst part of the stay was the absolute rip off for internet access - $10 for 30 minutes! More

I spend several nights in Hilton Sydney due to business travel. My overall experience and rating is good, however compared to hotel price level I would say from average+ to good. This is definately not a budget hotel, so you should expect high quality and good value for money. Hotel breakfast is very good, both food and service. Hotel gym... More

Stayed at this hotel, probably almost 5 years ago, and am pleased to say it is just as good years on. For the price the rooms and bathrooms are reasonably sized and well appointed. We stayed in room 2226 which had a great view and was quiet. Small things make this hotel - complimentary bottle of water, apple in the... More

This was my third stay at the Sydney Hilton, about a year since my last visit. This visit was so off-scale that it simply will not be possible to do better on my next visit. Initially, I had reserved a room at the Sheraton, based on the reviews and the fact that the Hilton prices were much higher. A good... More

Thank you for your comments regarding your recent stay at Hilton Sydney I am delighted to see that you enjoyed your upgrade to one of our King Suites. Due to the high volume of business coming through the hotel each day it is not often we have availability to upgrade our guests to a King Suite; however, I am glad... More

Last hotel in a recent tour of Australia, this is an old favourite. I love the modern style and the spot on location in central Sydney. Only downside is that the rooms are a little on the small side but haing said that this is a hotel to base your going out from!! I stay roughly 150 nights a year... More

I stayed one night at the Sydney Hilton. Fortunately it was a work trip, if I had paid more three hundred dollars a night for such a small noisy room I would have been very cranky indeed. The room was tiny and close to the lifts so it was noisy all night. In the end I had to sleep with... More

The Sydney Hilton is one of my favourite Hilton properties anywhere. I use either Syndey or Singapore as way-points on my trips and look forward to the Hilton properies in both locations (the Conrad in Singapore). The hotel is located very close to the Town Hall station, about a 25 minute journey from the SYD domestic terminal. Exit towards the... More
