This hotel is located across the road from Hyde Park - the city's green lungs.

The rooms are nice and spacious and beautifully decorated. The staff are friendly and helpful. The location is perfect as you are a short stroll from all city attractions. The park is your front garden and is ideal for a relaxing picnic.

Only complaint is the poky enclosed, rooftop pool. This could be be improved.

Would definetly stay here again.

My husband had a function on the evening of 28/11/2012 and decided at lunchtime of that day that he was going to be exhausted driving home so booked accommodation for Sheraton on the Park through a website for $299.00 plus parking ($50).
As i was recouperating from recent surgery I decided to go in and stay at the hotel while he went to the function.
Check in was fast and efficient with friendly, professional staff.
The room was clean although the small window and view out onto a laneway and buildings back windows was uninviting, we knew we had booked at the last minute, but the shutters were great to keep the room dark when sleeping in the next morning.
Maintenance was needed in the bathroom. The toilet constantly ran and it was a real battle to juggle the button to stop the annoying noisy system.
Each time I washed my hands at the sink I would have a wet patch across the middle of my clothing. After sometime I realised that the sink bowl was leaking right in the middle and was leaking out onto the bench - I am no trades person but I believe a bit of silicone would have done the trick.
After arriving, we went up to the pool area and I enjoyed the view while my husband had a swim and spa in the great facilities and we went back to the room to change.
Prior to getting ready for his function, we decided to have a drink at the Hotel Bar. As we walked up to the bar, we were greeted by a member of staff enquiring as to how she could assist. We noticed glasses of wine poured and many staff standing ready for the imminent arrival of guests who could be heard in a conference room next door.
We explained that we were wanting to sit down and have a drink, we were advised that it was only 4.45pm and the opening time was 5pm but we could go downstairs to the main lobby where we could have a drink.
So we took the lift down to the lobby and walked up to the inviting area to the right where people were enjoying drinks and snacks in what looked very comfortable and inviting seating. We were asked what we were after and we explained that we would like to sit down and order some drinks, we were only then advised that they were closing at 5pm and that we could go upstairs and have a drink as they were opening at 5pm We did explain that we had just been referred downstairs and we were given an apology but it was reiterated that upstairs would be open in 10 minutes.
So my husband shuffled me back in the lift and we were back where we had just come from. I was not up to walking outside the hotel and up the street, although, let me say in hindsight I would probably have had less walking!
We sat down and waited for the bar to open and watched all the staff standing with drinks in hand ready to serve as soon as the doors opened from the conference room.
Within 5 minutes this happened and there was a steady flow of guests networking and enjoying drinks, we waited another five minutes and then left our seats and proceeded up the two or three stairs to the bar, heading for a seat near the windows, to take in the advertised park view.
We were stopped and asked if we were part of the conference guests that were mingled to the left and we advised that we were not but were staying in the hotel and were heading over to the seats for a drink and window view.
We were advised that we could not sit in that area as it was reserved for the conference guests. We therefore sat down to the right of the mingling guests and ordered two drinks. My husband ordered a particular brand of beer on tap. When the drinks came my husband watched as his beer was poured into a glass from the bottle and was asked if there was anything else we would like. He reiterated his order and the explanation was only then given - that the tap beer was broken. We found this interesting as while we were waiting for our drinks we were watching over at the bar as the drinks were being poured from the tap.
We mentioned that we were disappointed that we were unable to sit and enjoy the great park view as our room did not have views and we were given an apology. The interesting thing was that none of the guests from the conference were sitting at the seat windows. They were all standing in area well away from the windows.
At 5.30pm we decided to make a move back to our room for my husband to get ready for the function. We exchanged greetings to three guests who walked past us and as we were moving on I heard one of the three ask if they could sit over by the windows and they were immediately taken over to that area and their orders taken.
We stay in many hotels in Australia and some overseas. Some hotels offer better service than others, but I can honestly say up until this stay that we have never had poor service by staff. However I was very disappointed with how we were treated that afternoon at the Sheraton on the Park . Check out the next morning was again, very prompt by friendly professional staff.

I recently spent two nights at the Sheraton on the park and I think it's one of the nicer business hotels in Sydney. My preference is usually boutique hotels, which this hotel is not, but there are character elements which make this hotel one to consider.

The lobby and reception area has a real buzz to it. It's plush, and has an overall quality feel to it. Staff are friendly and approachable and present themselves well. The room I stayed in was on the 18 floor with a great view of Hyde Park. The room itself is one of the largest rooms I have ever stayed in. The bathroom was lovely and well equiped, the bed comfortable and the pillow selection good. The gym and pool area are also great. Having recently stayed at the Westin Sydney where the pool was very undesirable, I'd say the Sheraton's gym and pool area are first class.

Don't hesitate in booking this hotel.

Can't fault the service or the facilities.

Beautifully appointed rooms, enormous showers, super quiet, great gym with view over hyde park.

Ask for a park side room definitely.

Staff are very helpful. Concierge has great restaurant recommendations and can reserve tables for you generally.

Catch a train to St James from the airport and it's just across the road if you dont' want to pay for a cab.
