Perks for kids and adults in Sydney’s city center
The award-winning Mercure Sydney was recently repackaged to cater to families and business travelers. The hotel has a fresh, modern look with plenty of perks for a mid-range hotel--kids under 15 stay and eat breakfast free! Add eight conference rooms, a foot-friendly downtown address and a pool and this renovated hotel starts to shine. Central Station is located around the corner from the hotel for those traveling by train.
Highlights
- Kids stay and eat breakfast free
- Downtown location within walking distance to major attractions
- Eight conference rooms
Rooms
Each of the hotel's 517 rooms applies geometric principles to design. Think sleek blonde wood paneling and pillows of all sizes splashed with reds and greens outfitting hotel beds. Rooms also feature mood lighting, comfortable desks with high-speed Internet access (fees apply), air conditioning, mini-fridge and understated bathrooms.
Features
The hotel features a gym and indoor heated rooftop pool for everyone's fitness and entertainment needs.
The sustainable Four Elements Restaurant serves breakfast and attracts a theater crowd for dinner. Items like Hunter Gold grain-fed scotch fillet please sophisticated palates. The breakfast buffet is an enormous spread and kids under 15 eat free. The bar serves light lunches, snacks and loose-leaf tea and coffee.
The hotel offers room service and has a car rental agency onsite, plus parking (fees apply) and Internet access (fees apply).

Fabulous Hotel
The only thing we didn't like about this hotel was the location. It was a pretty far walk to the harbours. But there were plenty of coffee shops and restaurants nearby. Bus stations and train stations were right outside the hotel. The service was fabulous and the concierges were very helpful with airport shuttles, tours, and restaurants.

This hotel could have been ok
This hotel could have been ok but it wasn't. The television didn't work on arrival and no one came to fix it until I went and fronted the the front desk manager. Then the hot water kettle didn't work but no one came to fix/ replace that either until I blew my cool at about 10pm - even then they sent some bloke who didn't even have a replacement - as if i were making the complaint up. They pretend to be a bit "up market" but really they are pretenders. A 3star place at best.

A fantastic location only a couple
A fantastic location only a couple of minutes walk from the train station. Hotel was very clean and facilities were good. I also got a complementary upgrade and as I arrived early morning I asked if I could drop my bags off to save lugging them around Sydney. Instead of dropping the bags off I was allowed to check in early as the room was ready there and then.

Stayed overnight. Very close to Central Station which has a train connection to Airport.

An excellent hotel, good location, close to all public transport and taxis. Easy walk to most areas. Not on the harbour but within easy distance. The best thing was comfortable bed, good sized room, internet in the room worked, cheap fast food close buy as well as excellent avoidable food on site AND the HUGE bath towels (bath sheets) provided.
