We chose this hotel for a recent visit to Sydney because it looked to be different from the many corporate hotels we had stayed at previously and we were not dissappointed! Firstly the location is incredible - literally around the corner from the Rocks many restaurants, cafes, galleries and markets and the rear of the hotel backs on to the... More

We stayed in two different rooms at this hotel - one night while on our way to the Great Barrier Reef and once upon our return. The rooms both times were lovely. Very clean, good amenities. There were some stairs to be navigated to get to both rooms which was charming but a bit of a pain with 2 substantial... More

The hotel is lovely, charming rooms and decor, great little garden for evening relaxing. HOWEVER the staff were extremely disappointing. We were treated to staff practically yelling at each other over breakfast, the manager disciplining a staff member in front of guests in the breakfast room and a general 'we are not having a good day' vibe that did not...

We recently stayed 1 night at the Harbour rocks hotel after watching the Sydney weekender show. It was excellent , the hotel has been newly refurbished and the renovations are remarkable. The service was great, and I could not fault the room or facilities except the TV could be mounted on the wall instead of on the desk. We enjoyed... More

We loved the location of this hotel. The Rocks area is very nice, and the Harbour Bridge, Opera House and ferries at Circular Quay are a very short walk away. Upon arriving we were disappointed to find that there were works going on in the hotel that we hadn't been warned about prior to the visit, meaning we had a... More

This charming boutique hotel is located in the very heart of Sydney, in easy walking distance of Circular Quay, the Sydney Opera house, the Royal Botanic Gardens and the main retail strips of Pitt and George Streets. Moreover, the historic Rocks neighborhood is filled with galleries,museums, restaurants, and cafés. After roaming the city for several days, we concluded that there... More

View of circular harbour from some rooms with both the 'Coathanger' Bridge and the opera house a few minutes walk away. Have always booked breakfast in the hotel as it gives us a good start to the day. Lots of eating places close by... More

The Harbour Rocks Hotel - HRH - is a small quaint hotel in the middle of The Rocks. It's location is superb for dining, shopping and sightseeing . The staff went above and beyond during our stay. We booked 3 rooms and all rooms were well appointed and all different in their own way. We would definitely return to this... More

This boutique hotel has the best location! Just a couple minute walk to Circular Quay, the Opera house, bridge, ferries and public transportation. I traveled with my best friend for a girls trip and we had the time of our life. We enjoyed a flat white (best coffee drink) every morning in the little cafe, although we didn't dine at... More
