Helpful, efficient and co-operative
Helpful, efficient and co-operative front desk staff. The price, though heavily discounted was alleged to include everything: breakfast, spa, gym & wi-fi internet connection. While every thing else was as advertised, there was a $25 daily charge for Internet connection which almost all hotels now include in the tariff. Further, there was no coffee machine in the room so coffee was just instant packets and then on a strict rationing basis. It's just stingy and made me wonder just who would pay $230 p.n. for a room with PAYG Internet, albeit with a great view, and that's after a 72% discount! It's very well located, however, and it's possible to walk to just about everything the city has to offer: restaurants, shopping, transport, museums, art galleries, bars, cafés, entertainment and night life. William Street is a very busy thoroughfare, and rooms facing it can be a bit noisy, double glazing notwithstanding.

Mister jet lag
Well-located, poor connectivity
Staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful (we were able to check in six hours early!). Lots of restaurants and shops a short walk away, about a twenty minute walk to Circular Quay or thirty minutes to the Opera House. Internet access in the room is wired only; wireless is available only in the lobby, for an exorbitant charge. Better to just go to the cafe across the street for free wifi.

Questionable food staff at night, but otherwise great!
The staff set us up in a room with a decent view of the bay, which was great since it was our first trip to Sydney. The concierge was extremely helpful in arranging ground transportation, and the reception officer even gave us a discount on in-room internet! The hotel location is really good for the price...only a few blocks from the Botanic Gardens and the Circular Quay area. My only complaint was the food we ordered on our first night, after a late arrival. The turkey sandwich we ordered was missing a couple of things...namely everything except for the bread and turkey. However, the food service manager was more than helpful in fixing the problem. She gave us an entirely new tray of food, including a fresh batch of hot fries on the side. Given that the kitchen was already closed by this point in the evening, I would call that exceptional customer service.

Short walk from hotel
Legal Grounds Cafe, located on Macquarie Street(about half way from the hotel to the Quay)...probably the best espresso I had while in Sydney. The food is really good as well, and the employees made us feel like we were dining in their home.

Good value
The Bayview Boulevard hotel is in a good location and had a great value in comparison to the hotels around it. It was nice and clean with great city views. The cons was that it was a bit of a walk to public transport, which was fine unless you walked around the city all day on foot and then wanted to get back to your hotel quickly. Breakfast was expensive and we missed choice of veggies or fruits as well as selection of hot drinks (for extra except for coffee) Overall a good hotel, would stay again if this was the best deal I could find and by a significantly more than some other options.

Nice hotel for the money
Upon check in, we were told the room was not ready, but it would be room 812. We went out and about the city, and a rude clerk told us we were in a room on the 3rd floor facing traffic. I explained I had paid for a harbor view room, she did not really care. Went up to the 3rd floor room, no luggage there. Went to the concierge in the lobby to find out my luggage was in room 812. God only knows who could have went through it. Reluctantly, the rude front desk person, reassigned me to the correct room. Room was very nice, clean and the concierge was very helpful getting cabs and with our luggage....
