Isabelle H. Couples - 5/11/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Good location, good facilities, just wished the bar stayed open for a little later. Would recommend since it is within walking distance to chinatown, public transpotation and good food.

Dear Isabelle, Thank you for letting us know your impressions. We’re thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Novotel Sydney Darling Square. It’s wonderful to hear our facilities met your needs and that you appreciated the consistent care in your room’s upkeep. Our team takes pride in maintaining high standards for guest comfort details. That said, we regret that our bar hours didn’t align with your preferences. Pumphouse Sydney currently operates daily until 9 PM, and we’ll certainly consider your input as we review our service offerings. Nonetheless, we’re glad our central location made it easy to explore Chinatown, public transport links, and Sydney’s vibrant dining scene during your visit. The entire team looks forward to welcoming you back in the future. Best wishes, Matthew Hill, General Manager

Adam G. Families - 5/11/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Excellent location, car park station close by, very modern with a lovely cafe In the lobby. Downside was the sofa bed was extremely uncomfortable. My teenage daughter refused to sleep in it. So musical beds for us. Dirty socks were left on the floor - so the once over check that we were told they were doing before checking in was not thorough. And this one isn’t a huge bother but the TV had a line through it.

Dear Adam, We appreciate you sharing your comments with us. We’re delighted you found our central location convenient and appreciated the modern touches throughout the hotel. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the café in our lobby, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words to Katrina and our front desk team. However, we sincerely regret that some aspects of your stay fell short of expectations. We’re addressing your feedback about the sleeping arrangements and room preparation with our housekeeping team to ensure greater attention to detail. Our maintenance team has also been alerted to review our entertainment systems. Finally, we’re thrilled our proximity to Darling Square’s vibrant dining and transport links added ease to your Sydney exploration. The Chinese Garden views from many rooms remain a favorite among families seeking moments of calm in the city. It would be a pleasure to see you again on a future occasion. Kind regards, Matthew Hill, General Manager
