Top Hotels Near McElhone Stairs in Sydney from NZ$167

"For cruisers out of Sydney this is an amazing location. Five minute walk to ship, close to Opera House, park and shopping. Staff are great, rooms lovely and comfortable."

"An old hotel which has had some renovations completed that has modernized parts of it. Our room was updated and very clean, however it was small. Barely room to move. The bathroom was lovely and new but no bench space for anything which was annoying. The balcony was standing room only, you couldn't fit a chair out there. The rooms were close to each other therefore it was extremely noisy. Our neighbours had no respect and aswell as talking loudly, they were banging their doors closed, constantly late at night and very early in the morning at 6.30am. The corridors were small and narrow. The renovations in the rooms seem nice enough however the corridors look like they need more work. The pool and spa is outdated and the gym had minimal equipment. The staff were lovely and the reception area was nice and cosy. Overall you will get what you pay for at this hotel. Having said this, we enjoyed our stay, but I probably wouldn't stay again. "

"We stayed for 4 nights and 5 days and unfortunately, the breakfast experience was consistently disappointing. The menu selection was very poor and repetitive, far below what you would expect from a 5-star hotel. More concerning, however, was the level of service. We were travelling with a baby, and simple requests such as a high chair or baby cutlery were handled extremely slowly, often requiring multiple reminders. This made what should have been an easy dining experience unnecessarily stressful. Basic table service was also lacking. Used plates were not cleared unless we explicitly asked, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this standard. Additionally, it was quite unprofessional to see staff at the entrance wearing wireless earphones and chatting among themselves instead of attending to guests. There was little sense of organisation or attentiveness. Overall, the service at breakfast was far below expectations and significantly impacted our stay. Aside from the location, this hotel does not deliver the level of quality expected for the price."
