Top Watsons Bay Hotel Reviews

Rydges World Square

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, staff was nice"

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"The location was good - near enough to Town Hall station and to the many Darling Harbour restaurants, ferries and other tourist amenities. The staff were all helpful and friendly. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The room was well-equipped and comfortable. The view from the windows wasn't great, but that's the price you may pay for a hotel located in a big city. I woyuld definitely consider the Park Royal for any future stays in Sydney."

Hyatt Regency Sydney

2/10 Terrible

"I was charged for food taken out of the mini bar yet I used nothing from the mini bar. I did have a tea, which I assumed was free. If charging $7.63 for a tea bag is what Hyatt considers reasonable, then this will be our last stay at any Hyatt hotel. Most less expensive hotels provide in room coffee and tea for free. Shame on you Hyatt for being so cheap"
