Smoothest business trip I have experienced

My stay was good from the start, quick and easy check in, the person attending to me, gave me perfect instructions on how to get to the car parking. The room was OK, and the breakfast was way more tempting than I could possibly eat All staff were friendly at all times, and were a credit to your organisation

Staying at Furama was very convenient as it was nearby to other facilities. Just a suggestion if there were seats available at the front side street of the main entrance for guests to sit as they await for their Uber or Taxi pickups like what is available at nearby places.

The Furama is in a former warehouse and has been thoroughly modernised. The staff were friendly, very helpful and approachable. The hotel is situated between Chinatown and Darling Centre and is a lively area. Being on the junction where the 2 tram routes cross makes transport to sites and Circular Quay a piece of cake and with an Opal transport card cheap and easy. The coffe machines at breakfast would benefit by repositioning but it is a minor observation. Highly recommended as the place to stay in Sydney

Gem of a hotel near Darling Harbour

This hotel is ideally situated 5 mins walk from the waterfront. The front desk , Manni ? Was great, but service let down by housekeeping and some front desk staff during our stay. Example requests for service were un necessarily ignored (or mis understood.) One issue was a serious cleanliness issue which took 3 days and multiple requests to resolve. This meant a 5 star review became 4 star as a result Overall we enjoyed our stay, location excellent and would stay again.
