Hotel is in the CBD central business district Short walk to both harbors and the great restaurants / shops coffee - next to Wynyard underground train station with easy access to rail system which for me has anxiety using around Europe but in Australia easy swipe on/ off with credit card only charges for the trip on only Breakfast was good at hotel - rooms are standard - housekeeping manager double checks rooms that they are cleaned Arrived real early in Sydney and hotel got us our rooms early. Novotel operates several area locations …found this site on York st perfect for Sydney marathon - most places only deal with credit cards so next visit I’d would limit the cash on hand -Sydney is walkable however hilly short hops on the light rail / train or bus would help if not in the walking spirit - tip …walk around pay attention to the places that have lines the local business people are at, will give you a clue on the quality of the shop

The rooms were large, very clean & well maintained, although the bathrooms could do with better ventilation (there was a sign in the bathroom saying you would be fined $2000 if the steam from your shower set off the smoke alarm - isn't this more a hotel problem, not guests?!). The foyer & restaurant - while very clean & well maintained - looks a little dull & dated. Staff were friendly & helpful. Great location in the city with plenty of restaurants & tourist spots / sights nearby.
