The Fullerton Hotel Sydney
Every staff is polite and friendly, from housekeeping to front desk and porters. Very nice building and decent gym. It would be great if a swimming pool exists or an affiliation with a local pool. This hotel is more for business travellers which was ideal for me on this trip while I was working off ...

Ace Hotel Sydney
Hotel right in the heart of Surry Hills, close to transport, but parking is limited and pulling up at the front / unloading is not easy as there's nowhere to stop. Suggest parking around the corner in paid carpark. Rooms are artistic & tasteful with good coffee, and nice bar.
