Great stay in excellent location
Great location and excellent views of the harbour. Comfortable and excellent transport links, the tram into central is right below the hotel. There is also plenty to explore in Darling Harbour, or get a ferry from Pyrmont Bay to Circular Quay. Only a word of warning, there is currently the Harbourside shopping centre that is being developed in front of the hotel, due to be completed in 2025, when this is complete, the views of the harbour will be lost!

Good location but slightly tired
Rooms are a little tired and quite noisy. Very close to the light rail for easy access around the city. Awesome breakfast.

The Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour is a little outdated, or at least the room I stayed in was. There was no desk to work from, only a round table. The bathroom was dated, with shower over, but no bath plug. Blockout blind was difficult & slow to operate. Bed was comfortable.

Awesome Hotel & Crew
Great hotel and location. Can’t thank enough the team who work there. One thing is the great hotel and surroundings, but this is nothing without the entire team and their commitment. It’s like a family and home…I will be back

Excellent location. Good staff support.
