Real Guest Reviews & Ratings

What Previous Guests Had to Say
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Hilton Sydney is conveniently located, with easy access to city sights and light rail right at the door; QVB is just across the road. Guests appreciated the comfortable rooms, some even upgraded to Junior Suites featuring open-plan spa bathrooms. The blackout blinds and comfortable beds ensured restful nights, though some guests have noted that the elevators can be quite loud, even from rooms located a few doors away. Many enjoyed the comprehensive breakfast buffet available in the main restaurant.

television problem
i stayed three rooms away from them on the 32nd floor. i still heard a loud whooshing sound every time one went up or down! it sounded like a rocket taking off, honestly. it was VERY noticeable between 6am and 8am, made sleeping nearly impossible. also, the television image constantly pixelated and dropped out.

The breakfast buffet featured great variety. It was a minor exploration mission to check it all out. The location was central, near the QVB shopping mall and a tram stop. This made transportation very easy.
My King Executive room did not match the pictures. There was no bathtub and no luggage rack. Ordering ice took a very long time. I had to follow up multiple times with reception.
