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).

A VERY clean hotel, comfy bed

A VERY clean hotel, comfy bed &a banquet of pillows to choose from- Rubber to feathers! Room Safe was out of order due to a previous user, which was inconvenient. Plumbing dripped & could do with repair, also drainage was poor so the sink half filled the basin when draining the bath. The iron blew the safety switch for a particular set of points which meant the hairdryer also did not work. Room meals were quick & well presented, but unfortunately on the cold side. The indoor heated pool was icey but like the gym spotlessly clean. Very hand location had all types of transport, & walking distance to many points of interest. Unfortuantely it was particularly tricky getting into the place by vehicle for a first time arrival without knowledge of the area as it was an extremely busy hub and sat in a myriad of one-way streets. All general areas were very clean & well maintained. Restuarant was well priced & the food delicious. Overall was pleased & would definitely stay there again.
