Oaks Hyde Park Plaza Sydney

The hotel was average but in a good area of the town if you go right or straight ahead. If you go left the area is not so good. The price was good for downtown Sydney.

We will not use you to book hotels again if this is your idea of a 4 star hotel. The hotel was extremely over priced for what it was. It was grubby and by no ways of 4 star standard. I wouldn't give it 1 star. We were very disappointed and this was a most disappointing experience. It really is not what you think it is! Perhaps you should go stay there before you recommend it to anyone else. :-( Wareen & Justine

Hotel is very close to Museum station, within easy walking distance of Darling Harbour and Circular Quay. Although the decor is somewhat dated the room was very clean, the sheets crisp white cotton and the bed very comfortable. What more could you want from a budget hotel?

Clean and functional in good location but run on a shoestring. In need of refurbishment and investment - noisy heating system, some bathroom fixtures cracked, carpets in public areas worn through in places, only one person on reception some of the time. Quite a number of apartment rooms on cheap long term lets and maybe they have lost focus on trying to be a hotel. Not a disaster but would not go again.

The room was advertised as a king size bed and sofabed at a 4 star. The bed was not a king, there was only one old chair of 2 different colours. The kitchen cupboard doors fell off, the clock didn't work, the tv only had 5 channels and the view was a delapitated shingled roof of another building. We could hardly fit our luggage into the elevator. It was reasonably clean but old. Not what we were expecting. Would not stay there again and would give it less than a 2 rating.

Very good location and quite comfortable, but facilities were below expectations for 4 star accommodation.

The hotel is on the older side, but due to its location in darlinghurst it was located directly to where i was visiting. the hotel was also a few minutes drive from friends which is why it was chosen.its also on the end of oxford st which offers ample clubs hotels and is one long st of retailstores with boutique stores running off from it on queen st and others at the top end. bondi junction is also close by. oaks also offer very good hotels. the room was well made and clean and very open with space all around. services in side were also good for the room

We will stay there again because it suits us. However, it was disconcerting to find full on 1 girl 2 guys porn in amongst the regular TV channels. We are adults we can cope but what about parents who may have a child with them and who may not be aware of the easy accessability of said porn and their child starts to surf the channels. The female in the particular piece we witnessed did not look as though she was enjoying the experience but looked in distressed - perhaps she thought that was the sexy OR was told to look that way. We are aware that this is a turn on to some people to see a female as a victim but we question the wisdom of that for younger eyes. Again would it not be better for people to pay for porn rather than have it easily available with free to air channels?

We stayed in an updated studio that was modern and clean although the floor was never cleaned in the 5 days we were there. The kitchen facilities were new. The wooden furniture was old and had seen better days. The TV was quite old and we had to get attention to it. The bed was kingsize, comfortable and looked very clean with white linen and covers. Towels were a bit thin. Sydney is expensive so I guess it was not too bad for the money. We usually stay at Rydges New World Hotel and that is very nice but more expensive.

Had a great stay, room was good, view a bit lousy on the 3rd floor as we were given a back apartment. Excellent staff on reception, looked after us extremely well.
