I was a bit worried staying here after reading about people's issues with the bed. In my opinion the ends are great. I also enjoyed the fact they provided full size fluffy bath towels. Everything was clean and great. The best part, by far, however, is the staff in the restaurant and the cleaning staff. They're all super friendly and helpful.

Great location easy walk to Darling and Sydney harbours. Staff polite and helpful, rooms clean and spacious. Local restaurants and bars. Downside would like reduced car parking as hotel guest, hand rail by bath/shower and disappointed restaurant closed Sunday and Mondays. Generally would recommend.

The hotel is very convenient, 5 mins walk to the light rail station, 20 mins wall to the circular quay, 15 mins to major train station where you can access all kind of transportation to all major tourist spots. The price is very reasonable as it is not right in the centre but it is definitely close enough. Eateries are everywhere. The property itself is ok but bravo to the young management team who is able to make prompt decision to rectify couple issues before they escalated to more stressful condition. Extra thanks to the shift managers Jordan and Catherine who have right balances between customer services and corporate perspective

We have enjoyed our stay at Sydney Central Hotel. Staff were friendly and very helpful especially very understanding when it comes to $50 dining and drinks credit. Restaurant on site was decent. Location is good, many dining options close by and very close to Central station. Room was spacious and simple. I would stay again.
