Shangri-La Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location with spacious, comfortable rooms on every level. For this stay, we upgraded to a Harbour View room on one of the upper floors, and it was absolutely worth it — the panoramic views were spectacular! The staff are always welcoming, friendly and accommodating. Check-in and check-out are also incredibly easy, with the option to do everything through the app or at the hotel, making arrival at any time a breeze. A beautiful place to stay and one we would happily return to!"

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

8/10 Good

"I would have loved to give five stars, but a few small things held it back. This trip was a birthday getaway for my wife, and I'd notified the hotel ahead of time. We'd also paid for the club room upgrade and late checkout. Unfortunately, neither was mentioned at check-in. That said, there was a lovely surprise waiting in the room for my wife, along with a handwritten note - a really nice touch that didn't go unnoticed. The late checkout was initially missed and had to be corrected after the fact. To make things more frustrating, the valet required pickup by 11am regardless, which meant we were effectively paying twice for something we'd already booked. The valet fee really should be prorated to match the length of your stay, not charged as if it resets daily regardless of what you've paid for. Breakfast was mediocre - the staff were lovely and friendly, but not being able to order eggs made to your liking isn't really acceptable at this class of hotel. The same issue showed up in the club room, where the beverage selection was surprisingly limited. Overall, a good stay with a few gaps that felt out of step with the price point — hopefully addressed for future guests."

When is the best time to go to Annandale?

Annandale experiences a temperate climate, with warm summers and mild winters. Spring offers comfortable temperatures, usually ranging from 17°C to 25°C, with less humidity than summer.

While summer (December to February) can be hot, with temperatures sometimes exceeding 30°C, it's still a good time to visit if you don't mind the heat. Many businesses are air-conditioned, and you're close enough to Sydney's beaches for a refreshing dip.
