The hotel has old furnishings. Currently it is supposed to take a year to repair the pool and we did not have access to our balcony because which would have been nice to eat outside. Our other family’s room was the kind of room and a little nicer. They could eat on their balcony. Kind of thought we should not be charged as much because we were not provided the same amenities. It was nice to have a kitchenette and washer and dryer in the room. It is a good location because it is right near a train station. I would probably stay here again because of convenience. Did not feel breakfast was worth $38.00 extra so we did not ask for that. Staff were kind.

The York by Swiss - Perfect Place to Stay!

Our room was located on the 13th floor, with a great view of the city. The room was cleaned daily, unless we asked for privacy. We did not eat the breakfast offered, but there was a refrigerator, microwave, and sink in the room. We were happy to eat things we bought from the store.

Very disappointed - no where near the 4 star claim

Room was tidy, but very dated. The bathroom looks more suited to a $50 a night motel in the country than what you would expect from the ads for this hotel. Bed was terribly uncomfortable, with a massive dip on one side. Construction machinery operated outside my window constantly. The first time I knew the pool was unavailable was when I turned up and there was a note saying it’s out for a number of months - would have been great information prior and would have impacted my choice of hotel.

Limited selection of dishes. No wine glasses. 3 mismatched fluit glasses. During booking we were told of renovations and the balcony may not be accessible during the day when work was being done outside. But, actually the balcony was not available at all. Very disappointing during the evening time.

Room was huge with a very comfortable lounge. Comfortable bed but pillows were too soft for me. Lovely view to Luna Park. Great location close to transport and cafes. One of our kitchen cupboard doors was broken which was fixed. My wire drawer unit was broken and wasn’t fixed. Someone needs to check the room before it’s occupied.

We loved the conscience of this hotel and 95% of the staff were incredible! Only issue was with a car for a night that ended up only being for a few hours! Staff went out of way to help fix and take care of issues- we blew the fuse and the dryer stopped working all fixed very quickly.

I think we have stayed her before and will certainly do again. Location is excellent just metres from Wynyard station and minutes from circular quay. Plenty of eating opportunities close by including two just outside the front door.. Nice balcony as well. Pleasant staff. We didnt use the housekeeping service. No breakfast but plenty of coffee places and convenience stores around.

We weren't informed that the renovations happening outside of our 2 windows. Being on the 9th floor they wete using cranes and lifts passing our windows. Yes we could close the curtains, but being informed would be nice. Lots of screeming from the street, which you have no control of. In general place was nice. Regarding cleaning i would recommend the cleaners to open every cabinet and draw. (Box of condoms let in one of the cabinets, and empty bottle in the rubbish bin)...
