I would have liked more dining options. To my knowledge we were not advised as to requesting breakfast for $49. Instead we had to pay $67. All personnel were quite helpful and our room was lovely as it should have been for $600 per night.

My wife and I got suite 1613 which offered a great view of the Sydney Harbor, including the Opera House. It is an amateur photographers paradise. The room is very spacious, with comfortable bed. Bathroom is elegant and functional. The team members are a multicultural group of people who went out of their way to make of this a great experience. It is very easy to walk from the hotel to the Harbor Bridge. We had a rental car and did valet parking which is not the cheapest but for sure is the more convenient way. Congratulations to all team members and thank you very much for this unforgettable experience.
