Located across the street from a Metro station and a short walk from the Rocks, this hotel was exactly what we wanted. The staff were helpful, the rooms clean (even if a bit small). With a reservation made a month in advance, we felt the rate was very good, probably as good as we could have obtained in this area... more

Having just returned from our few days in Sydney and our stay at the Menzies we were very satisfied with the quality and service we received. We were greeted by two very friendly members of staff who quickly carried our luggage and throughout the stay were most informative and helpful to arrange taxi pick up and advised us of the... more

This location can not be beat.It is a short walk to Sydney Harbor Ferries, The Rocks district, the botanical gardens, shopping and restaurants. The train station is right across the street, if you need to venture farther, It also makes the hotel easy to find. The rooms were large, though lacked in good light for makeup. My roomie thought the... more

We stayed at the Menzies for 6 nights and found the hotel to be perfectly fine. The rooms are small (probably due to the era that it was built), but comfortable and perfectly adequate. The bed was very comfortable (new mattress) and the room was clean and cleaned well daily. We were accomodated with an early morning arrival after a... more

The Menzies is located in the middle of the central business district, directly across the street from a rail station (which has many shops, including a supermarket, in it). The hotel is within easy walking distance of the Rocks (oldest part of Sydney), Circular Quay and Darling Harbor. A place to get information on buses is in the entrance to... more

Thank you "OutOfValley" for your feedback. I'm sorry you found your inner court room a little gloomy and will have our engineer will check the wattage of the bulbs used in those rooms. These inner court rooms do have the advantage of being very quiet. I'm glad you enjoyed the service of our great staff, and hope we'll have the...

Very good location, walking distance to both harbours with Aquarium and Opera house. Train station just on the other side on the street, free gym and nice rooms. Expensive to eat at hotel, but breakfast in the diner across the street was superb, so we we're happy. more

Spent 1 night in the city after a dinner harbor cruise. Booked a 4 star on Priceline and got this hotel. I am not sure the rooms are quite 4 star quality. The bed was old and uncomfortable, and the room decor was circa 1976. The hotel itself is impressive, with a nice lobby and the staff were very helpful.... more

Thanks for your feedback "trngdir". I'm sorry you felt the pool and spa were too cold however assure you they are checked on a daily basis to maintain the desired temperature. I do understand that overseas visitors may be more familiar with warmer or cooler temperatures for these facilities. Glad you were able to take advantage of a special rate...

I wasn't actually disappointed, because I had read the reviews beforehand, but it was far dirtier than I anticipated. Our room was luckily, a deal through an agent. Positives: Staff, esp. the concierge were excellent all around. Even housekeeping was friendly. Location was great- had brekky in the train station almost ever morning. There's also a grocery store on the... more

Thank you for your feedback "tootyfancy". You indicate in your review that you stayed with us in October 2007 - is this correct? Nevertheless your input has been passed to our executive housekeeper to investigate as this is definitely not the standard we aim to offer our guests in 2007 or in 2009 ! My apologies for your disappointment. I...

We stayed here during our Sydney portion of our honeymoon. Without even mentioning to the front desk when we checked in that it was our honeymoon (our travel agency may have contacted them), they gave us a free upgrade to a nicer room with a garden view. We also received a bottle of champagne when we got back to our... more

All the very best - Michael Smith, General Manager

The Menzies is in walking distance to the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay, Darling Harbour, The Rocks, Chinatown and the Fish Market. We took a bus to Bondi Beach which was easy to find and only a 30 minute ride. The hotel staff was absolutely incredible! Extremely helpful and the Concierge went above and beyond any that we have... more
