The only available room was one of the cheaper 'district'' view rooms, not one of the ones with a harbour view but when we arrived we were offered one with a little peep of Elizabeth Bay and its own patio area which was great. (BBQ also available) The first floor is a smoking floor but this wasn't a problem and... more

We stayed here for 6 nights in August and had a great time. The room though very small was very clean with excellent views. The beds were comfortable and the small kitchenette was very functional. There is a building going up next door, actually about 12 inches is next door, so that was quite noisy in the morning but it... more

We stayed here in 2007 and found it to be excellent. We had just come from a terrible experience with another hotel in the area and came here for respite. To say the staff were friendly and helpful is a complete understatement. They answered every question and assisted us in every humanly possible way they could. The room was beautiful... more

Some time ago I searched for accommodation in Sydney, Australia, for two senior ladies who were spending a week there prior to boarding a one-month cruise. We had several suggestions through the chat lines and finally settled on the Macleay Serviced Apartment Hotel. We were warned that it was only 3 1/2 stars and was a little shabby but conveniently... more

A friend and I recently stayed for 5 nights at the Macleay, we thoroughly enjoyed the visit...great location we walked through the Botanical Gardens to Circular Quay on several occassions, we ate at surrounding restaurants. We found all the staff to be most friendly and helpful and would definately go there again, would always pay the extra for a room... more

We booked this hotel in May '07 for NYE '07. It wasn't our first choice because of reviews and location (was concerned about the red light district). It was also very expensive - but you have to expect that in Sydney on New Years Eve. When we booked, we were told that there were only rooms with city views left,... more

We stayed at this hotel from May 31 to June 1, 2007. The staff was very friendly, helpful, professional. The asked what we wanted to see and gave us a map and made recommendations. I did some washing and they were very keen to give me change. The view was awesome! We had room 910 with an unobstructed view of... more

First of all, you should definitely pay for a room with a view. It is maybe an extra A$15 (EUR10) per night, and for that you also get a quieter room, away from the traffic. How many times will you be coming back to Sydney? Over the course of a week, we stayed in 3 rooms here, all of them... more

Stayed in room 901, while room a little dated the view more than made up for it. Had recently read to ensure 8th or 9th floors to get a great view - our room had view of city, Opera House, Bridge and right around to the North Heads. We arrived around 11am and they went to work on our room... more
