Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by MH78 Great Location Friendly Staff
Based on other reviews I had read the Holiday Inn Old Sydney exceeded my expectations. The room size was fine. Buffet Breakfast included all the options and the price was what I would have expected to pay at a Café. Reception Staff were friendly and genuinely remembered us as we entered.
The bathrooms were small but functional. I really don't agree with the people that complained in their reviews.
Access to The Harbour Bridge, The Rocks, Circular Quay, Ferries etc couldn't have been better.
I will aim to stay here again in the future.

mwon Great location and good breakfast
We stayed there for the reason that didn't need to drive back home after a few drinks. The staffs was very helpful and helping me to park my car in their basement.
We had a very good night sleep and the bed and pillows were very comfortable and I like the option for "hard" and "soft" pillows.
We also enjoyed the good view to the Harbour Bridge and Opera House from the Roof Top swimming pool except some unconsiderate guests talking loudly and having picnics and wines up there as well. (
In all, we also had a very good breakfast before heading back home. We'll stay in this hotel again when we come to Sydney.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by 2Friendz Great scene of harbour- lobby bar service excellent
As a priority privilege member I plan resort get aways with an old school friend annually. A big part of this 'escape' is to have a dining experience . I was very disappointed that there was no restaurant open for an evening dining experience. Of a positive note the service at the lobby bar , room service and breakfast was excellent . Food available at lobby bar in evening very very ordinary.Views from harbour view room extraordinary especially as stay coincided with a solar partial eclipse at dawn. Pool very clean and inviting-\
Spa not so with 2 men and later on a third drinking beer at the same time as taking long stretches of time in spa.
Check-in handled efficiently - check-out was very slow.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 Location and comfort
Convenient location with a short walk to ferrys, opera house and central business district. Lots of dining choices in all ranges. . Room was quiet and comfortable. Although the room was a little small. We made do with a queen size bed because a king size was extra.
Staff was friendly and helpful.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by alan400 Great location and comfort
The hotel's location was ideal for the evening theatre and daily sightseeing. The service was first rate and the room was very comfortable, clean and quiet. The views of Sydney and fresh breakfasts were bonuses.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by awakenow Great location ...but
The location of this Hotel is perfect .
If you plan to stay on a Saturday night make sure you bring ear plugs as the constant thumping and drone of loud 'techno' music coming from a near by club/bar will ensure that you get no sleep until the very small hours..
By no means the fault of the Hotel may I add but would please check to see if they have done anything about it before you book
It ruined our night there
