I was referred to the Marriot Sydney on Hyde Park by a friend who raved about this hotel so I was really looking forward to my stay. I had also stayed at the Marriot Harborside Hong Kong on several occassions and loved it. You know how when one thing goes wrong it starts a chain of events... On the Saturday... More

I had heard mixed reviews about this hotel, but mostly relating to the older rooms that had not yet been renovated. However, as I had booked an Executive Level room, it was very much refurbished and very nicely too. The room itself was very nice, and I was facing the East side, so unfortunately not over Hyde Park. I had... More

Great location right next to Hyde Park. Heart of the city and can walk to Darling Harbour and Circular Quay. Very convenient. Our room had good view at the park and the city, the bathroom finishing is a little bit old though. Hotel staffs are nice. Reception told us about the free bus 555 goes around most of the attractions... More

It’s alright, in a pretty good location, and the value’s reasonable if you can get a deal. However, the service is dreadful and a far cry from what the Marriott should offer, or used to. I’d stayed at the Marriott about five years ago for work, and was reasonably happy when our $200 Wotif Mystery Deal announced we’d be staying... More

We were lucky enough to be upgraded to the Executive Floor (thanks Marriott Rewards). The rooms were nice, I didn't find them outdated at all. The shower was huge (OK, sometimes the water went from cold to hot or hot to cold too suddenly - a pet peeve of mine), the beds were comfortable, and there were a ton of... More

The hotel does not live up to five star standards that one comes to expect from an international chain. TV remote did not work. The wall sockets did not for allow for anything but local plugs. The desk was small. The carpets and sofas were old and worn out. There is no master switch for all lights. No room slippers.... More

Upon arrival a very pleasant bell boy collected our bags from the car and was very nice and helpful with directions about public transport and locations! The staff at reception were also extremely helpful and did not make a fuss when we accidentally booked for a different date! Our view was beautiful across Hyde park from level 14 and the... More

My wife and I stayed for several days in March 2012. I noticed that this hotel is getting beat up on Tripadvisor for having old rooms. We also stayed in an unrenovated room and I thought that people have really overlooked the other positive attributes of the hotel and have fixated too much on the age of the room. I... More

This was the second time we stayed at this hotel in Sydney. First of all, everything is very expensive in Sydney CBD , so be prepared ! This hotel is very well located , it is walking distance to almost everything. Circular Quay, where you can take ferries, bus , train... Queen Victoria Building, Darling Harbour , The Rocks, Opera...
