“Home away from Home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 15, 2012

We recently stayed for one night after a Christmas party in the city, in a 1 Bedroom apartment and were really impressed with the comfort and space the apartment offers. We have stayed before in a Studio room and were happy with that, but it is well worth the extra for the upgrade.
Location is ideal within walking distance of Town Hall and Darling Harbour and you basically are paying the same price as you would for a standard hotel room. Our accommodation choice in Sydney.

“I'll say 3.5 but no half scale on TA”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 15, 2012

Location is definitely the best thing about this place. Most things are within walking distance and there're lots of food choices nearby.

For the prices in Sydney it's a good choice but otherwise just slightly above average.

“Fantastic room, at real value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 13, 2012

Could have been fractionally cleaner, but overall a fantastic apartment with plenty of space. Felt really comfortable having our one year old crawling round the apartment. Great views, excellent location. Travelling as a family, having a separate bedroom and a kitchen is such an asset, and for this to only be a bit more expensive than some of the cheapest adjacent hotels was a really big win.
My only complaint was the extortionate price of internet access, but as I was coming to write this review, I see that it will be free from Jan 2013.

“Comfort and space in central Sydney”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with Darling Harbour view at extra cost. From floor 47 the views across to Darling were stunning and at night it was great sitting on the balcony with a glass or two of wine. Not suitable for those who don't like heights.
The apartment was modern, clean and large. Perfectly adequate kitchen facilities although we ate out most of the time. There are so many eating places round and about and we enjoyed tapas in local restaurants on several nights.
The location on Kent and Liverpool st. Is a fairly busy city area and while convenient for shops is not exactly picturesque.
Room servicing was regularly done and reception staff were pleasant and helpful.
Not the cheapest apartments in Sydney, but go on- spoil yourselves.

Room Tip: Specify what view you want. Wil cost extra for better ones

“Meriton Apts - Kent Street Sydney”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 10, 2012

The apartment was well maintained, clean, comfortable and very convenient. The location (Kent Street & Liverpool) was not very savoury - excessive drinking area and generally a high crime neighbourhood (based on news reports). I would stay there again however.

Room Tip: High floors reduce the street noise.
