Dated property, outsourced cleaners. My sheets were stained with what looked like blood, the milk in my fridge was open with the flap pushed down, the TV didnt work, I rang for room service for coffee and the phone rang out, then I rang reception and was hung up on. Bottled water is not free!! and I was still charged considering the terrible standard that I paid for. I wasnt offered any compensation and I was going to book again for two more visits to Sydney, I most certainly won't be now. Very disappointing

Just one thing made me very disappointed, which is my room window was very dirty so although the view from my room was good but I can’t make a good photo or video. I was really annoyed because I booked the room for the view but the rest all good.

The hotel is in prime location, beautiful view of harbour bridge and train station is nearby, but hotel’s condition is not good, not maintained properly, the room is not worth that price also staffs behaviour is not good. I am still following up for dollar 50 which they took on the first day as deposit, upon enquiring they talk rudely. Not recommended to anyone, you can get good places in the same price.

We have been stranded in Sydney Australia for a week and a half due to a cruise ship maintenance issue. Carol, the manager of the hotel, has been absolutely wonderful helping us get through this situation. If we are ever here again, we will definitely stay at View Sydney.
