Vibe Hotel North Sydney

10/10 Excellent

The hotel is well situated, near a metro line and many good restaurants (catering to the North Sydney CBD crowd). Parking is a little of a challenge though, but it is the CBD after all. Great team, during check in and out, spacious and clean room, with modern decor. The one thing they could improve on is better lighting in the bathroom, for overall safety as well as other functions: shaving/ makeup alert at the vanity.

Ting-Ting

A modern indoor space with a curved wall design, a glass partition, and a dining area with chairs and tables.
