“What strikes me most is its prime spot near the ICC, which makes it ideal for business travelers attending events, but it offers so much more with its French-inspired dining and amazing rooftop pool. The focus on wellness, alongside luxurious touches like Nespresso machines, elevates any stay. It's a sophisticated choice in Darling Harbour.”

Underwhelming stay. Staff attitude needs improvement.
unwelcoming attitudedeclining behaviour
The club Millesime staff questioned if I was a guest before I even asked for a complimentary drink. This felt accusatory and unwelcoming! Then, at Atelier, I was told they don't accept drink coupons and had no space. This happened despite many empty tables being visible. The staff attitude and behaviour have noticeably declined, quite disappointing.

The location was perfect. It was close to everything I wanted to see. The staff were very friendly. Breakfast at Atelier was AMAZING. I thank them for a great weekend.
I booked a corner harbour view room. I was disappointed to be on the 5th floor out of 30. The noise at 7am on Saturday was unfortunate.

The location made getting around easy. The gym had adequate equipment for a workout. I found croissants offered at breakfast were quite good.
The bed felt hard. I requested help with the aircon, yet there was no follow-up from staff. I also heard people in rooms next to mine easily.
