雪梨中心諾富特飯店 Novotel Sydney Central

It is a nice hotel and location is very convenient. Close to Central Station and China Town with lots restaurants around it. We went there for the concert held in Sydney entertainment centre which is very close to this hotel as well. Recommend for city trip. Fair value for the price i paid but it is not a 4 and half stars hotel.

The bathroom is not bright enough and facility is a little bit old. room interior may need some refurbish.

All other hotels in the area had a 3 night minimum for New Years Eve and Citigate only had 2 nights which fit our travelling schedule. It was close to the CBD and walking distance to Darling Harbour and just a bit further to Circular Quay. The monorail station is at the bottom of the street. We stayed in a King Harbour Open Plan Suite which did not have harbour views but you could still see Darling Harbour attractions and it didn't face into the back of another hotel so the view was good. The food in the hotel bistro was very good value and wide menu choice, the staff were very helpful. The pool is not overly large but adequate with a great spa and has comfortable lounge chairs, the bar was not open on the pool deck whilst we were there.

Apparently all hotels charge for parking in Sydney (being from WA I had never come across this before) - Citigate charged $23 per night which when you have paid double for NYE I felt was a bit OTT and should have been included in the room rate. There was no bath in the suite only a shower.

friendly staff, good check out & check in time
