Our first stay at the Intercontinental Sydney
For the most part we had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The recent renovations were outstanding and the room was first class; great view of Sydney Bridge! Front end staff were friendly and professional and they were happy to accommodate our needs. The breakfast buffett was excellent. Lots of options. We would certainly stay again. Only critique was the quality of the food and cocktails offered at the Treasury bar; both were of quite low quality. We also waited over 45 min for this disappointing food. I will say though the ambiance and design, of the atrium space is stunning.

Fine for an overnight stay.
The hotel was fine for a one night stay. Observed that most of the other guests were business people. The one disappointment was not being able to access the roof bar. It’s open to the public and hotel guests don’t appear to have any preferential booking status. The ground floor bar is relaxed and has good food at hotel prices and pleasant staff.

Sydney stay
Best hotel in Sydney. Great location close to everything. The bed was so comfy just what you needed after a long day sightseeing. We were celebrating our anniversary and a got a lovey card, champagne and a room upgrade. Can’t recommend this hotel enough. They helped make our holiday extra special. All the staff are so helpful and friendly. Breakfast had everything you could think off and was delicious.
