"The location is great. The host was great with communication. We are a family of four and enjoyed the layout and location. I would stay again. The only strange thing was that the stairwell had a musty smell but it didn’t smell in any of the areas that you’d spend time in such as the bedrooms or kitchen."

"Location was perfect. We absolutly loved being in such a historic area. Amazing stores/shops/food all over the place. We were not prepared for the hills and steps but had a great time. Great communication with the owner. We were able to check in a little early after an early morning flight. House layout is a little odd (but expected for an older place like this). Main floor has 2 bedrooms, living room and the only (very small) bathroom while kitchen and master bed are upstairs. We had 5 adults...

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

8/10 Good
"What I least liked was, no accessible ice machine. You had to contact the front desk and they would send ice up to your room. Secondly, the shower faucets take forever to balance out a nice water temperature for you to take a shower. One slight 2mm turn of the knob and your skin would burn off, turn the knob again and it’s too cold. Also why have the shower spout that comes from the ceiling and not an adjustable shower head? I don’t get my head/hair wet every time I shower, I had to posture my neck and head away from the water to shower and not get my head wet."
