I stayed here one night in a transit from BKK to SFO. Staff were really friendly - got an upgrade to a big suite with full kitchen, balcony with chairs and table. They gave me$20 AUD food credit at their restaurant which was good for a cocktail and a nice glass of wine. Very convenient to SYD - 10 min Uber away. Great option for staying near airport!
The Branksome is my FAVORITE place to stay while in Sydney..i love this place so much! Its so beautiful..the rooms are always so nice and the beds are super comfy and their pillows give such a good nights sleep! I love the pool..the restaurant has thee best Wasabi prawns I have ever tasted..we couldn't wait to have them for dinner in the restaurant so had them in the afternoon by room service!! And they were just as beautiful as i remembered!! The rooftop bar is absolutely BEAUTIFUL..even tho we had to sit inside cos of the rain it was still a really lovely place to drink..and the addition of bar food is incredible..they literally make the best pina Coladas ive ever had!! We always get the $20 food and drink credit since we book thru Expedia and the buy one get one free voucher for up the rooftop bar..their house bubbly is lovely btw!! And I love how they use our deposit to pay for our room service charges instead of taking days to refund the deposit like other hotels do!! And the staff are all really lovely and helpful!! So incredibly impressed with this hotel..ill be back next month..bringing a bunch of our family with us..and I literally can not wait!!
Enjoyed our stay. Nice pool, gym and sauna. Rooms met our needs for this stay. Laundry came in handy. There was a ridiculous deposit of $Aud 300 per day, quite insulting.
Well positioned to Sydney airport, the rooms are quiet, spacious and comfortable.

Disliked: Amenities
The food we had was terrible - sent eggs benedict back twice - eggs still overcooked & rubbery & sauce cold; bread dry (rating 1 our of 10) and expensive. Needed to try 4 rooms to find one that wind noise screaming throughmain apartment intake vent would have precluded sleeping anywhere in apartment. Initial room facing airport had dirty area with debris and railroad tracks immediately behind it that are in regular use (impacting sleep and use of balcony) - the airport transport is subcontracted out and was expensive as the hotel is some distance from International airport. Carpet in living room stained and dirty. All in all an extremely disappointing stay.
Reception was friendly and helpful. She advised me of the lovely surprise Expedia voucher for a meal. I was really nice to receive this. Restaurant staff were also friendly and helpful. Parking is easy and safe
Close to airport but not close enough to walk. They do coordinate pickup and drop off by super shuttle, for a surcharge. Runs every 40 minutes. Not close to public transit, if you want to go to CBD. Full size washer dryer a big plus. Kitchenette for simple meals. Comfortable bed with options for a mattress topper if you want a softer sleep. There is some noise from the planes and the drapes don't adequately block light.
This property is near the airport, especially if you have an early or late flight. Staff were really friendly, and facility was in great condition. They have an onsite restaurant which is a plus in addition to onsite parking, and a shuttle. I highly recommend.
The room was fantastic! Clean, spacious, and with everything needed to enjoy our stay. The gym, sauna and spa were excellent! We will be coming back next time we are in Sydney!
Well appointed rooms. Very good kitchen and washer/ dryer in each unit. Very comfortable beds and unit. Good swimming pool in hotel. Public transportation is few blocks away and buses are often.
Beautiful property with 2 bedroom accommodation for family of 4. High quality fittings apartment and with very comfortable beds and lounges. The 2 bathrooms 2 toilets were of a good size. We were very happy with our choice and would stay here again when we are in Sydney
Absolutely love The Branksome and we try and stay here every time we stay in Sydney!! The pool so beautiful and clean and always a lovely temperature!! The rooms are beautiful and I love the new dispensers in the showers!! The restaurant food is some of the best ive ever tasted!! And we always have a beautiful sleep at The Branksome..its one of the reasons we continue to come back again and again!! Only complaint I have is the hours of The rooftop bar..its never open when we get back from the league!! Would be lovely to come back at night and have dinner in the restaurant then be able to go up to the rooftop bar for a few drinks..but it closes so early!! Its such a lovely spot up there i really wish we could use it more..and use our vouchers there too!! Other than that i absolutely loved our stay and will be back again really soon!!
Excellent facilities. Some noise from trucks at 5:00 am. But can sleep through it. Very comfortable and well equipped units.

Amazing 1 night stay in a two bedroom apartment plus media room. Great attention to detail and super clean and modern.
The gym and pool area were excellent.
And the staff were super helpful and accommodating.
Would definitely stay again when in Sydney.
The 2 bedroom,2 bathroom apartment was great..
The family enjoyed th the pool & the garden.
Great option away from the hustle & buste of Sydney.
We all met for our family Christmas.
The restaurant down stairs was perfect. The service & menu was top class.
I am a celiac & they catered perfectly for me..
Lovely friendly staff who were very accommodating with a 2 hour early checkin (noon) after a long flight from London arriving 07.00. Nice breakfast (a la carte is best value) and rooftop bar with half price house beers and wines.Excellent suite with great facilities, especially for catering and washing clothes.
Only downside is long walk to Mascot train station to get into the city which we knew about and were prepared for.
Also future guests please note: we got ripped off by a taxi driver (SQ Black & White) at the airport who insisted we had to pay $50 minimum for the short journey which he only told us about after we had passed the airport exit barrier and which we refused. This is nothing to do with the hotel, so others beware and take the hotel’s shuttle. Indeed the hotel told us the driver was incorrect.
Would definitely thoroughly recommend and would stay again.
We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. We could not fault anything over our 2 night stay. Staff were friendly and helpful, we used the gym which had everything we needed to have a great workout. It was close to shops and the airport and suited our needs impeccably. We would definitely stay here again
Airport hotel that charges more for their shuttle than an uber or taxi. The airport is only a 3 min drive away. We were told the shuttle was complimentary. And the rooftop bar is closed on Sundays. Otherwise, clean and comfortable.

Great stay overall
We booked the hotel for one night as we had an early flight to Melbourne the next morning and this hotel is close to the airport. Hotel is deceiving from the outside as it is an older building but the room was new and very clean. It had all the amenities in the kitchen and stacked washer and dryer . The staff was friendly and helpful. Balcony was a bonus.
