The only good point about this hotel is the location. Arrived early in Sydney but couldn't check in until 2pm.Room overlooked Main Street and as the window was broken the noise prevented a good nights sleep. The night before we left we were awoken at 11pm to pay the bill for a night's garaging of our hire car,despite the fact... More

We decided to stay here because of the reasonable price for a city hotel and its proximity to the State Theatre. In these respects we were not disappointed. The room we were allocated was very small but had everything we needed...fine for a single night stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast is not served there but there are... More

Dear Aimee: Thank you for writing us a review. You and your friends checked in at around 2 o'clock. And you came to reception at around 2:30 to 3pm saying the carpet in the room were a bit wet. We told you that we did deep carpet clean for both rooms today, and it generally takes about 2 hours to... More

We stayed at City Hotel for 3 nights and found it to be clean, centrally located to most everything in Sydney. Downside: Wi-fi not free, as I found in most places in Australia. No daily cleaning service. No continental breakfast OR coffee!

We were looking for a night's accommodation in Sydney and wanted something not too far from Darling Harbour. Saw this hotel on a special so booked it. We were presently surprised with the furnishing and cleanliness although there were quite a few scuff marks on the wall caused by luggage. We were within walking distance from Darling Harbour so were... More

Stayed here for a mother/daughter weekend. Great location for two females - so central and we felt safe walking around at night after a visit to the Theatre. Friendly staff and clean and fresh room - if not a bit small!

Darling harbor is just a walking distance away and so is Sydney harbor.. They offer great rates in compare to sydney's standard!! If I come to Sydney again I'll definitely stay here if they continue their offer & standard.. The service is good too.. As we went to Fiji from Sydney .. They allowed us to keep our big luggages...

Yes, really! The rooms may be small but the quality of the fittings and cleanliness make for it. Doesn't have a gym, a bar or a pool not even free wifi but if that is no concern if you are here to take in the city or on a business mission. True value for money. The room and well appointed... More

Booked this online and we were pleasantly surprised how clean and nice the room was even though it was relatively small. We stayed for 2 nights. Front desk staff, specially Nathan, Crystal and Fiona, were friendly and helpful. Excellent location since it is walking distance to major attractions. We will definitely stay there again. .
