Top Darling Square Hotel Reviews

Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Honestly faultless"

YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites

8/10 Good

"Mum and daughter trip. The elevator was not working when we checked in so we opted to climb the stairs to our room. The room was amazing with glimpses of Darling Harbour. Fantastic location — we had a great stroll around the area and grabbed some dinner. Unfortunately we got stuck in the lift for 45 minutes coming back from dinner and on the way to check out the pool. Website that day had said they were having problems with the lifts so this was not totally unexpected. Staff were amazing and kept up informed about what was happening during the whole time. We have a great story to tell from the trip."

Oaks Sydney Goldsbrough Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend this property"

APX World Square

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location for a weekend/short stay in the city. Easy 7 minute walk from Central station, China Town on the doorstep, light rail to Circular Quay just a 2 minute walk away, Pitt Street Mall 5 minute walk away. We had 2 adjoining rooms that worked well for our group of 6. The rooms were a generous size, the kitchenette was well equipped, the bathroom was clean and there was laundry facilities in the bathroom as well. The beds were very comfortable but could do with an extra pillow each. There was a lovely outdoor pool and towels were provided at reception. All in all, an excellent stay and I would definitely recommend."

"Amazing hotel"

Rydges World Square

8/10 Good

"A great location for easy access across the CBD and easy walking to metro and tram station, and easy access to World Square eateries. Room was overall nicely appointed and a comfortable size, but a little dated in places and the hotel is showing it's age somewhat in terms of wall scuffs, carpet, bathroom tiles. However a comfortable stay, quiet, and good location for business in the city."

YEHS Hotel Sydney CBD

8/10 Good

"Friendly staff and nearby to restaurants, shops and public transportation"
