I can only recommend this hotel for its great location. The rooftop pool/spa with a view of the city and Hyde Park is fantastic. On the down side, the rooms are run down and the staff are unpleasant. The bathroom taps fell off in my hand and the "King" bed was actually just two singles rolled together, held together by... More

We have had another stay at this hotel, this time with a room overlooking Hyde Park. We thought we would be disturbed by the traffic noise but were pleasantly surprised that it did not. In fact it was better to have the views of the park and as we were there on ANZAC day we had a prime view of... More

After booking a studio apartment with older type furnishings was delighted to receive a newly updated large room . All kitchen facilities were there too. It had a balcony to enjoy breakfast on. There were only 2 problems, no wifi and our TV only had Channel 9. Despite reporting this and it appears someone came to check it was not... More

My wife and I stayed here in April 2012. Our first room had an ancient tube type TV,not many channels and not a good picture either.After the second day and a few trips to reception we were finall given another room with a good flat screen TV and all the channels. No wifi. Apart from this glitch its fine, and... More

We booked a 3.5 star studio room. We did get it for a great price considering that it has a great central location in the Sydney CBD. It was a great room, very large, with kitchenette, couch, dining table and Queen bed. The only thing was that it was very old and tired. There were water stains on the curtains,... More

We chose this hotel for the price and location to the Sydney Triathlon. It was in a great location for the triathlon and the price was OK compared to other hotels in Sydney (we were on a budget) but it really does need some work done. A bit tired - time for some serious upgrade I think! The reception staff... More

I stayed at Oaks Hyde Park on a business trip as I needed to be walking distance from the Australian Museum. After reading the reviews I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised at the size of the 4* studio and found the facilities comfortable and clean. Yes, the building and corridors and lift look old and tired but the... More

The following are parts of my letter sent to the Oaks Hyde Park after our recent stay. It is very disappointing to say we have yet to receive a reply from them. 'I would like to give you feedback re accommodation I had booked for four of us on March 22, 2012. My husband and I have stayed at the... More

The hotel is tired and needs work. Reception service wasn't great, mostly because staff needed to work more efficiently to handle flow through of guests. The room was not at all what I expected in size and furnishings based on pictures on the website and my experience at other Oaks apartments, however it was spotlessly clean, serviced every day, and...
