Requested 3 clean coffee mugs from staff so we could eat our oatmeal before we left for the airport. Housekeeping couldn’t provide them, the kitchen couldn’t provide them and lastly the front desk said they would yet we never received them. It was only 3 coffee mugs… We ended up spending $30 outside the hotel for breakfast instead of eating in our room. The walls in the rooms are paper thin. You can hear everything in the hallways, the rooms next to you, above you and below you. It is bad. If you want a good night sleep and decent hospitality, do not stay here. To be honest, this was so bad, I wouldn’t expect a response or refund, I expect this type of stay is very common.

Incredible location. We were walking to Darling harbour in 15 min. Trains and bus transport close by. Unlimited dining options near by. Tropicana, for breakfast up a couple of blocks is great. Rooms are decent, comfy beds and pillows. Reliable and prompt elevators. Happy endings comedy show across the street. Happy with stay. Only downer was the Halls could ise some more regular cleaning and vacume.

Conveniently located, a block away from a grocery store and close to other shopping areas. My room had a connecting door so I was hearing everything from the neighbouring room. Shower was…interesting. Less than a metre wide so you’re back is to a half glass divider. It is more of a wet bath room, so I would avoid putting down the floor mat until after you shower. Amenities are not provided, it’s a 3in1 soap, but a free bottle of water at checking and a bunch of gummy candies at reception as well!

I had a great stay at Ibis Sydney east. Considering its perched above a busy road, the double glazing meant that the sound does not infiltrate the room and I had no trouble sleeping or just relaxing in the room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Kings Cross station is very close and you can get anywhere from there. My room even had a harbour and Opera House view, to my surprise. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will stay again.

The National park was not close by. It's on a main Sydney inner city road! Breakfast is only $15 so don't add to your accommodation for $34 (which was what i was offered!!!) - bit of a con. Old and definitely not worth what i paid even in Sydney.
