“Worth returning to”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 18, 2013

We often stay in Sydney for a night or two to see a show or go out for a meal. I always hunt around on various websites to compare prices and service and invariably come back to the Meriton Serviced apartments. They are conveniently located, well maintained and the service is always friendly and helpful. Our only complaint is the speed of the lifts...sometimes left waiting quite awhile. This however is a small price to pay for a great stay.

Dear Terrigaltraveller,

Thank you for your recent review and for continually choosing to use Meriton Serviced Apartments Pitt Street as your preferred accommodation provider, we certainly appreciate your loyalty!

As you mentioned, Meriton Serviced Apartments Pitt Street provides great value as opposed to traditional small hotel rooms. We provide spacious, fully equipped apartments in a central city location!

I’m sorry to hear that you experience some delays with the lifts. As our occupancy is usually very high, especially over weekends, there can sometimes be slight delays during peak check in and check out times. I am however pleased to see that this doesn’t have a negative impact on your stay and you still choose to stay with us when you travel to Sydney!

Thank you again for taking the time to write a review, the team at Meriton Serviced Apartments Pitt Street wishes you a happy and safe Easter weekend and we looking forward to seeing you back again soon!

Kind Regards,

Nico M

“Convenient and Cozy Sub-Penthouse for 3!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 16, 2013

Booked a 3Br sub-penthouse suite for a week-long business trip and it was probably the best decision for 3 women on the job. It was a lot cheaper than booking three rooms and we were able to huddle before we start the day and recap at night. We also cooked and ate in a lot, which was a lot healthier than eating out all the time. Meriton on Pitt was right smack at the center of downtown Sydney so it was very convenient. Definitely enjoyed the Nespresso machine in the unit! What I didnt like was the absence of a bell hop, which I know is normal for a non-5star hotels in Australia.

Dear Ailene A,

Thank you for your kind review.

It is always a pleasure reading comments indicating our guests enjoyed their stay!

As you have mentioned it’s a lot cheaper when booking a 3 bedroom apartment, opposed to three rooms at a hotel! Our large sized apartments, with full kitchen, modern appliances and living space is always good option when travelling in groups or with the family.

I am pleased to advise you that our Meriton Kent Street property have bell hops during peak check in times should you wish to book in the near future.

Thank you again for your time and we do look forward to opening our doors and welcoming you back.

Kind Regards

“Great location, clean and comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 13, 2013

We recently stayed at the Meriton on Pitt ST. We booked a 3 bedroom and a 1 bedroom apartment for 8 people. We requested for the apartments on the same floor and they certainly made the effort to accomodated us by converting the 2 bedroom to a 1 bedroom. We appreciate Katrina's (front desk) effort to locate a parking for our 12 seater commuter which is a difficult task as almost all parking bays do not cater to height more than 2.1 metres. We had a lovely stay in a fantastic location in a beautiful city.

“Central Location - Clean/Comfortable/Good Sized Apartment”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 13, 2013

We stayed here from 03/03-03/06 after our cruise ended, the day after Mardi Gras which was incredible. Our original unit was somewhere on the 3Xth floor, but we had issues with the hot water staying hot. Management came up to our room to adjust at the floor level, but it still was problematic. They switched our room, which was 4902.

I never rented an apartment before on a vacation, so this was a new experience for us. The appeal for us was having more room to stretch out than a traditional hotel. This was indeed the case. The unit was huge 3 bedroom/2bath, with partial views of the Sydney and Darling Harbour, and two outdoor balconies. Kitchens had a gas range, full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and oven. The dining room had a table for six. Washer/dryer with some detergent was a bonus. We didn't do any cooking but there is a Woolworth (grocery store) just around the block. The location is very convenient for one using public transportation. Town Hall station is again around the block which will take you to major parts of the city. Right down the street were two malls (Westfield, Victoria). One thing to note is that there are numerous nearby restaurants, but no in-house restaurant as this is an apartment complex not a hotel. Meriton seems to be a big player in Sydney as there are several high-rises with their names on them.

The one negative I could come up with, but I don't know if this how systems for apartments in Australia work but they seem to use on-demand hot water systems for each unit. We had consistent hot water in 4902, but you could not have two people taking a shower in both bathrooms or have a shower/washer running at the same time. The shower water would just get too cold.

Management seems to read these reviews, so next time maintenance is doing their round, 4902 needs a new thermostat. It works but the temperature down button is broken off. I would stay again, but would probably try the World Tower next time for a different experience.

Dear Absolutboy20,

Thank you for providing valuable feedback in regards to your recent stay, I am pleased to hear that overall you enjoyed your stay at Meriton Serviced Apartments Pitt Street.

Meriton Serviced Apartments is leading the way in hotel style accommodation. We currently have eleven serviced apartment properties across New South Wales and Queensland and already have plans for new exciting developments in the near future! Our apartments are spacious and fully equipped which gives you that lovely "home away from home" feeling.

Please accept my apologies in regards to the problems you were experiencing with the hot water in your apartment. I was disappointed to read that you were required to move apartments as the problem could not be rectified right away due to being outside of Maintenance hours. I can understand how frustrating this would be and understand that it is a less than ideal situation. Please be advised that our Maintenance officer attended the apartment and fixed the problem as soon as possible the following day. As a result of your feedback we have completed an audit on the hot water system for each apartment and we will be upgrading the hot water valves over the next two weeks.

Absolutboy20 thank you for providing such a informative, detailed review. We hope to welcome you back on your next return to Sydney!

Kind Regards,

Nico M

“Excellent Apartments - Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 10, 2013

Stayed in a three bedroom, two bathroom apartment on the 43rd floor and it was great. Clean, modern and well priced. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Couple of things missing from the kitchen that we could have used but not a big problem. If you have a few people and need a bit of room then this is the way to go. As nice as the York albeit without the harbour views but much more cost effective.

Room Tip: The higher the floor the less street noise
