Great Hotel

Pros: Great location and very comfortable rooms.
Cons: Car parking could be cheaper, but there is a Wilson car park close by in Sussex Street anyway.
Location: Our go to hotel for shows across the road at the State Theatre.
A great hotel. The kind of hotel where you know everything will be as it should be. No need to worry about anything.

Right next to Pitt st mall

Fabulous location and superior staff. Great with kids. No onsite parking and hard to get a park out front to unload when busy but they have a valet service. Would stay again, beds were comfy.

Kids room Issue + Soft Bed + Breakfast

Pros: location, staff; breakfast staff was noteworthy as he was clearly panicked himself, but he still tried to have a chat and smile
Cons: Bed !, Information about kids room, and Breakfast space
Location: Vivid, Shopping, Darling Harbour
1) I booked Swissotel because I was interested in the Kids' Room package which I saw in the website. I got the booking through Wotif because it is easier to see room configuration. In the morning, ( we had 9 PM check in), I called to confirm and was told that the kids room cannot be arranged if booking made through a 3rd party and takes at least 3 days in advance. It was not mentioned clearly in the website, and I had written it down in the booking form note in Wotif, nobody contacted me to clarify this. It was a great disappointment as I booked it for my 4 yo birthday which fell right on the morning we checked out. I promised the kids and showed them the kids room picture and they were really excited for this. If not for the kids room, I would have probably booked another hotel However, staff apologised and prepared a yummy birthday cake in the room when we checked in, so the staff really tried to help me with the kids. 2. Bed is too soft for me, not firm enough to support my back, and had a bit of back sore in the morning. I also had allergic reaction in the room, sneezing and blocked nose. The room was spotless, but I wonder about microscopic mould that might be lurking somewhere. But this is just me, the rest of family was fine. 3. Breakfast was close to chaotic. It need more space and need to re-arrange placement of buffet tables. It does not allow flow of people. I wanted a luxurious slow hotel breakfast with slow music but it was fast and crowded.
