Rooms were well appointed and the ease of check in was a delight. The bar and outdoor area was excellent for a night cap. The location near the harbour is also good for the sights of Sydney.

Shangri-La Sydney
Each member of the staff was very friendly and helpful. They took care of everything we needed plus. There was absolutely nothing I could find wrong. I strongly recommend upgrading to an upper floor. It included many extras you don’t get from a regular room. Worth the extra for upgrade.
