Booked a 2 bedroom apartment. Only disappointment was that we stayed 2 days and were not able to take full advantage of its facilities. Would strongly recommend as a place to stay in Downtown Sydney. Close to Rail and Ferry, supermarket just a short walk (though ask the staff for specific directions - it is actually in Wynyard Station)

We stayed at The York for four nights and were extremely pleased with our Deluxe Studio apartment on the 13th floor. It was clean and roomy with an excellent kitchen and good bathroom which contained a washing machine and clothes dryer. The traffic in surrounding streets was noisy but when the door to the verandah was closed no noise at... More

We chose to stay at The York by Swiss-Belhotel for a single night because it was in the general proximity of Circular Quay (where we were meeting a friend for dinner) and because we could get the room plus parking for under $250. Our first impression was that it was about what we expected. It was quite a spacious apartment... More

We recently stayed at The York and I must say I was very impressed. We were on the 19th Floor and had a great view from the Suncorp building to the Sydney Tower. The staff were friendly.

We stayed for one night Friday 19/4/13. The location is great within easy walking distance to The Rocks, Circular Quay and the CBD. The unit was roomier than we expected with a large bathroom which had a washing machine and dryer, full kitchen with full size fridge also. Compared to the ridiculous prices that are being charged in Sydney these... More

My husband, two children & I stayed here for 5 nights March 2013. I was wary after reading some reports here, but after a call to the hotel, we were assured the negative comments here were incorrect.

The York has a lot going for it. It is in a terrific location close to transport, shops (including supermarkets) and restaurants. The downside of the location is traffic noise, particular on weekday mornings as commuter traffic streams off the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Our two bed, two bath apartment was clean, spacious and well appointed, and more than met our... More

The two bedroom apartment was perfect for our family of five. It was an easy walk to the bridge and opera house. The staff was excellent and was extremely helpful. Rooms could use some updating. Very close to the train station too.
