Stayed for 2 nights 22/23 April. We booked 2 nights through Wotif at $199 per night - 2 double beds plus breakfast, on 6th Floor. Best location especially for tourists new to Sydney.
Direct access to Circular Quay, by train or shuttle, from International and Domestic airports.
Just a couple of problems with restaurant, fixed by keen management, initially let down by inexperienced staff. Minor hiccups overall.
Very clean, very comfortable, very good location, excellent breakfast - what more do you need!

Very expensive but as a one off it was certainly worth it. The view from the roof really is amazing and if two 15yr olds can be impressed it must be good ! The location is incredible, sightseeing bus stops right outside the door, 5min walk to circular quay and ferries to Manly etc. We were really sorry to leave. The room had 2 double beds and views over the city. We arrived early approx 9am we didn't expect the room to ready but were give access to the roof and pool area it really was wonderful to sit there in the fresh air after a long flight from the UK with the views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge 'just there' in front of you. We were able to use our room at 12.00, it was very comfortable clean just what we had expected, we were not disapponted.

This hotel is fantastically positioned in the old Rocks area of Sydney. If you ask for an executive room you will be looking out to The Opera House across the harbour and Sydney Harbour bridge to the left - absolutely fantastic view! The rooms are huge with a living area and well as king size bed, flat screen tv, huge wardrobes, writing desk and mini bar. You are really close to the bars and restaurants in this area - in fact thats probably the best and worst point! It gets really noisy at night when the pubs shut!
There is a swimming pool on the roof of the hotel which again gives brilliant views across to the Botanical Gardens. We were only here for 2 nights so we didn't lose too much sleep, but I don't know if I would recommend it for too much longer. Apart from the noise this was a great hotel.

Old Sydney Holiday Inn is in a great location, surrounded by lots of nice little cafes, restaurants and pubs. All the sights are only walking distance.

The staff at the hotel where friendly and helpful, everything was clean and well maintained. The rooms where fine, a bit small but overall good.

This hotel is reasonably priced for the location and i would recommend it to everyone.
