Holiday Inn Sydney Potts Point
Staying at Holiday Inn Sydney Potts Point was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The room was a perfect size—neither too small nor overwhelming—and it felt clean and well-maintained throughout our visit. Thanks to the sealed windows, the space stayed quiet and peaceful, which made for a great night’s sleep.

The location is ideal: close to campus, with plenty of Asian grocery stores and authentic Chinese restaurants nearby. The apartment itself had a spacious living area that made the room feel airy and comfortable. I booked during New Year’s Eve, and security was outstanding—there were always guards on duty at each building, and access to the elevator required a key card, which added a great sense of safety. The surrounding neighborhood is residential, so it’s quiet and peaceful at night, though there’s some traffic noise in the daytime. The property feels like it's nestled within a small green oasis, with individual building entrances and secure access—all contributing to a real sense of privacy and comfort. One minor downside is that parking is charged separately, but if you're not driving, this isn’t an issue. Overall, it’s a well-located, safe, and thoughtfully designed option with great value, especially for longer stays.
