Awesome hotel in close proximity to ST Vincent’s hospital, which suited us. Well positioned hotel for shopping, restaurants, even Darling Harbour is only 12-15min drive. Highly recommend this hotel, only winge would be that the aircon doesn’t cold enough for comfort. Summer would be a little warm.

The location and room facing the park were second to none. I had the best service, especially with check-in with the friendly and helpful Christina. She made me feel so welcome! I loved my room too...it was gorgeous and clean. Will definitely stay again.

Central to most of what we went to. Staff all lovely and helpful. It would be beneficial for power points either side of the bed to be easily accessible for people who use sleep apnoea machines, getting down on knees on the floor to plug in under bedside cupboard is not fun when you are older. Loved the view over Hyde Park, windows were dirty though which was a shame but realise it's not a cheap or easy exercise to keep them clean. The food was lovely in the cafe, small menu but good. Because we ate there numerous times it would be good if there was a separate lunch and dinner menu for variety. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would readily return

Parking was easy to access, however pricing is higher than advertised here so be aware. Parking lots are very small if you drive a SUV or MPV and low clearance - you will have to watch the boot when opened. Location is ok - light rail is close by, trains are on the corner of the block. Staff - very very polite and professional, even late in the night. Room size was ok, bathtub was super super huge and the kids loved in Kids liked the pool as well as it was up in the roof top 😆 Air con temp is adjustable but it was still freezing cold at night, no options for heater so be aware.

It's really disappointing to give such a great hotel with such great staff and facilities like it's gym and breakfast restaurant a rating below 5 stars. The TV service is just way below the standard it should be amongst everything else in the hotel. I came up from Melbourne to go to an AFL match, the team I follow was staying in the hotel, and a large range of channels weren't working including Fox Footy. Even if they were working, the TV service needs to be a lot better, it has fallen behind other high quality hotels in Sydney and sadly (given it is a really nice hotel with great staff) is enough difference for me to stay somewhere else.

Great hotel in good location
I really enjoyed my stay at the Pullman. The bed was very comfortable. Food was good value for money. The mini bar was not replenished on two of the days I was there, but for me that was no big deal. To reuse towels, you were supposed to call reception; I would have preferred a system whereby, for example, you hung up your towels if you wanted to reuse them.

Excellent customer service and nice lobby but this is not a 5 star hotel. Beds were comfy snd clean but carpets filthy and hallways carpet smelled and so walls damaged all thru. Pool is very inaccessible with no handrails and first step is very deep for someone with knee injury or a shorter person. Same for hot tub

While the staff were excellent the hotel is aged and needs upgrading - walls in our room needed cleaning on arrival due to dried nose matter next to the bed. Hand prints over the window and back of door - made for a questionable decision to stay.

Extremely disappointed. Booked the Junior suite expecting all the features usually attributed to a room of this name. Room was dated, furniture worn and had tears in material. Powerpoint in bedroom did not work. Lighting in room was poor. No USB outlets. Mould in bathroom around joints in tiles. Door was hanging off fridge cabinet. AC definitely was not working despite the thermostat saying the room was at 18.5 degrees. Would not recommend this hotel. My wife and I travel alot, one of the worst hotels we have stayed in. Lights out above reception desks and you could see the dust on the lights and other areas in the lobby. Had to wait ages for a lift and on our particular stay 'lift waiting' was a common complaint of others when you eventually got a lift. Not sure how this hotel has a 5 star rating.

After going to a nearby hotel that was so much worse than the photos indicated, we discovered Pullman. They were so welcoming and professional and the hotel itself was impeccable. I don't usually leave reviews, but we truly couldn't have asked for a better hotel. From the location, to the rooftop pool/gym, and the cleanliness, it was a 10 star experience. Pullman will definitely be my go-to hotel next time I'm in Sydney. 😃

Older hotel in desperate need of maintenance. There were 26 rooms without air conditioning during our two-night stay. Uncomfortably hot in the rooms, dated decor, unhelpful staff.

Convenient location and nice roof top view but in need an upgrade as room and carpets are very dated. The strong stench of bleach when first entering is sickening, perhaps like other hotels have a nice scent going through rooms and common areas. Front desk staff are very slow and trying to order drinks using QR code from pool area was very difficult

Mixed experience
This hotel is amazing on paper. Great location, 5 star, reputable name. In reality it needs more work to live up to that potential. The car park boom gates were a constant problem, lifts didnt work and didnt come to certain floors in the carpark basement - resulting in lots of fire stair treks. The rooms are nicely appointed however for 5 star i'd expect more. Very basic amenities, some missing (eg tea and coffee not refilled on arrival). Room was booked for 2 adults and 2 children however only 2 towels were provided. While these things are solvable it means the guest needs to "take on an action" - something that's not ideal when you're holidaying and expecting 5 - star facilities.
