QT Sydney, an EVT hotel

QT Sydney is a standout in style and personality—every detail feels intentional and artistic. The rooms are spacious, well-designed, and packed with thoughtful amenities. I was especially impressed by the bathroom layout; it’s cleverly designed and adds a luxurious touch to the stay. Located right on Market Street, the hotel is incredibly convenient—just a 5-minute walk to the nearest train station, with multiple bus routes nearby, making it easy to explore the city. The only minor downside is that the entrance isn’t very obvious, so first-time visitors might miss it. Breakfast is served à la carte rather than buffet-style, but the staff are attentive and the food quality is excellent—fresh, tasty, and thoughtfully prepared. Overall, this is a fantastic choice for travelers who appreciate design, comfort, and great location. Highly recommend.

Inside the hotel, the amenities are top-notch: a lovely indoor pool, sauna, and a relaxing Japanese-style hot tub that made for the perfect unwind after a busy day exploring. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere felt both modern and welcoming. It’s rare to find such a well-rounded stay with great value—definitely a place I’d recommend and return to.

Breakfast was decent—not overly varied, but fresh and tasty with a good mix of hot and cold options. It wasn’t fancy, but it hit the mark for a solid start to the day. Considering the location, cleanliness, and value for money, this place really delivers. I’d definitely recommend it and would stay here again when in Sydney.

Rydges North Sydney

The Rydges North Sydney recently underwent a refreshing renovation, and it truly shows—the design is modern and stylish throughout, with a comfortable vibe that makes the stay enjoyable. The rooms are well-appointed, and the bedding feels luxurious. That said, there are a few minor drawbacks: the air conditioning unit produces noticeable noise when running, and sound insulation isn’t ideal—especially during nighttime, when construction or traffic near the area can be heard occasionally. Still, the hotel’s location is excellent; it’s just a short walk to the train station, making downtown Sydney easy to reach. With plenty of dining options and convenience stores nearby, it’s a solid choice for both business and leisure travelers. Overall, the pros definitely outweigh the cons, and I’d recommend it for anyone looking for a convenient, well-designed base in North Sydney.

Rydges Darling Square Apartment Hotel, an EVT Hotel

Staying at Rydges Darling Square Apartment Hotel was a great experience overall. The room was spacious, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Its location is unbeatable—just a short walk to Chinatown and the heart of Sydney’s shopping district, making it super convenient for exploring the city. Public transport access is excellent too, with the metro nearby. The only minor downside was the check-in time being later than expected, which meant waiting a bit, but the staff were very polite and helpful during the process. Despite that small hiccup, the hotel’s excellent location, modern amenities, and friendly service made it a top choice. I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip to Sydney—highly recommend for travelers looking for comfort and convenience in a central spot.

Rydges Australia Square

Staying at Rydges Australia Square in Sydney was a fantastic experience, especially given the unbeatable location. Just a 100-meter walk from the iconic Christmas Tree Lane, and it’s equally close to Martin Place and Town Hall—perfect for exploring the city center. A quick 333 bus ride takes you straight to Bondi Beach, and the Opera House is only about a kilometer away—great for a stroll with a chance to spot seals by the water. The hotel is located at 97 Pitt Street, and taking an Uber to the airport costs around AUD 38 (roughly CNY 160), which is more convenient and often cheaper than using the OPAL card, especially if you're traveling with a partner. The double room has a slightly small bed, but that’s understandable considering the prime location. Breakfast includes bread, eggs, bacon, beans, coffee, and yogurt—solid basics, though there’s no fresh fruit or vegetables. Still, it’s reliable and fits well within the overall value. Overall, this is a great choice for travelers who prioritize convenience and good location without breaking the bank.

Shangri-La Sydney

Staying at Shangri-La Sydney was an absolute highlight of my trip. The service was impeccable—attentive, warm, and always one step ahead. The room itself was spacious and spotlessly clean, with panoramic views of Sydney Harbour that made every moment feel special. After a long day of meetings, I couldn’t have asked for a better way to unwind than watching the sunset paint the sky over the harbour from my window. Dinner at The Rocks restaurant was a perfect end to the evening—elegant, delicious, and just steps away. If you’ve got some free time, the Opera House and Harbour Bridge are literally right next door, making it easy to explore without needing to hop on public transport. Everything about this stay felt luxurious yet effortless. Highly recommend this hotel for both business and leisure travellers.

Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay

This hotel completely exceeded my expectations! A friend recommended it, and after staying here, I totally understand why. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the Sydney Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and public transit makes exploring the city so convenient. I was initially worried about the age of the building, but the room was immaculately maintained, with modern touches and excellent comfort throughout. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive—always smiling and ready to help. I booked a king-size bed (1.8m) and appreciated that they provided an extra rollaway bed for my child, which fit perfectly and made the room feel spacious and comfortable. The surrounding area has everything you’d need—great restaurants, cafes, convenience stores, and attractions all within walking distance. The only minor downside? Breakfast gets very busy on weekends, and we had to skip it due to time constraints—such a pity since the buffet looked amazing. But honestly, this didn’t take away from the overall experience. For the price, the value is outstanding, and I’ll definitely be back.
