My stay at Hilton Sydney had its ups and downs. The central location made it convenient for exploring, but I found the amenities lacking. While I appreciated the comfort of my room, the overall experience fell short of what I expected from a Hilton brand hotel.

My stay at Hilton Sydney was a mixed bag. The location was prime, right in the heart of the CBD and across from the Queen Victoria Building, which made getting around super convenient. However, I noticed several small issues that added up during my visit, from the lack of quality in amenities to service inconsistencies. While some staff were lovely and accommodating, the overall experience felt like it had room for improvement.

I had a mix of experiences at Hilton Sydney. the location was undoubtedly superb, making it easy to explore the city. However, the room left much to be desired, feeling somewhat dated and not reflective of a 5-star standard. Although breakfast had good quality food, the limited coffee options and chaotic breakfast setup were disappointing. Overall, while I appreciate certain aspects, I can't fully endorse my stay.

Rooms
