We stayed for 2 nights in a Deluxe King room. The room is very spacious with the most comfortable bed and pillows we have ever found in a hotel. There is a little balcony with opening doors which is a nice touch compared to other city hotels where you feel a little trapped in your room. Bathroom was large with separate toilet. The ambience of the hotel is relaxed, with beautiful antique furniture. The pool area is amazing for a city hotel. The pool is heated, there are deck chairs, tables and lovely plants around the area making it feel more like an apartment style setting than a hotel pool. The gym is well equipped.

The staff are friendly and helpful, without being cold and detached as you find in big hotels. We didn't dine at the hotel as there are so many restaurants and cafes around the area so we decided to get out and about a bit. We normally don't use public transport, but did this time to get around and out to a concert at Moore Park, and it is so easy to access from the hotel. Ferries, buses and train all 5 minutes walk away.

As we are from Sydney we drove in and used the hotel carpark. You do get discounted parking for $25 a day.

This is a lovely hotel and would definitely stay again if we are going to the city. For overseas travellers it is a perfect location with personal service you wouldn't get at the bigger chain hotels.

We wanted a boutique hotel and Sir Stamford ticked all the boxes. Stayed 4 nights ahead of a cruise. The location was terrific and we preferred the continental breakfast- which was beautifully presented. I swam each morning in the rooftop pool. Where else could you enjoy that alone in a city centre hotel? We took advantage of the additional food and beverage credits. The food was very good and we sampled the Australian microbrews in the bar. The staff were ever helpful, thoughtful and courteous- whatever their role. The Hotel even graciously looked after our luggage while we had a few final hours in Sydney before our flight. We were so impressed, I have written this review in the airport departure lounge. Many thanks to all the staff for a lovely 25th wedding anniversary stay.

We stopped here as part of our honeymoon and from the moment that we entered the hotel till the moment we left we could not find a fault. The hotel is smaller and less glitzy than some of the major chain hotels but is so much more friendly. Our room which overlooked Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House was beautifully furnished and superbly serviced.
The position of the hotel is brilliant and you can be on circular quay or in the opera house or in the botanical gardens in minutes.
Both The Bar and the Dining Room serve beautiful food and drink. Breakfast is served in the Dining Room and is excellent.
The staff throughout the hotel could not have been better.
The whole place exudes class and quality.
It was so good we have booked to go again.

beautiful hotel,nice staff very friendly,lovely room and so close to circular quay, well worth the stay breakfast was buffet style as much as you wanted no queuing, and cocktails were delicious in the evening served by a lovely italian waiter who chatted happily to us 2 old frustrated women haha
