Super Quirky, really friendly staff and a great breakfast!

Fun but too crowded
If you’re looking for a hotel right smack in the shopping district, this is the hotel for you. We were looking for one that wasn’t surrounded by very heavy crowds.
The rooms were a bit dusty, given that it had a lot upholstery. Overall, I believe that QT Sydney is more of a 4 star hotel.

Overall we had a great stay.
The location, decor and vibe is top notch. The service couldn’t be faulted either. Extremely comfortable bed. Nice and quiet.
Not quite as clean as I would have liked. Lots of dust in the little display cabinet in our room. No top sheet which I really dislike. I expect that in Europe but not in an Australian hotel. The toilet roll holder was falling out of the wall. Just little things.

Room was beautiful! big room, comfy bed and friendly check in staff at the front desk. Also loved the spa - facial and massage was luxurious.
The gym wasn't great but there was an option to go to a local gym!

Exceptional comfort, quiet nd customer service.
Soooooo comfortable and quiet! The location is wonderful, steps to everything in the CBD including Hyde Park, the Art Gallery of NSW, the domain … and of course, very glamorous shopping. Every, single member of staff was a sweetheart and we felt very cared for and so happy! The decor is wildly beautiful and so fun! Thankyou!

Sexy Weekend Away
The room had mirrors. A few more U around the room would've been sexy. The bed was perfect. The bath, and bathroom spectacular. The bar was great with the DJ on Saturday night. Food delicious. Fantastic service staff.
Our dressing gowns were missing. I did ask for two to be sent up but the cleaner must have forgotten. More bath products for soaking in the Japanese tub would've been nice.

Location location location
Friendly, accommodating staff. Excellent location. Walk to most of the city's tourist attractions, plus shopping on the doorstep, and bus to Bondi a 5 minute walk away. Double glazed windows keep out the traffic noise, and rooms are quiet and spacious. This is quirky hotel where the emphasis is on mood (romantic) and lighting (low). High recommend.
We wanted coffee at QT's ground floor coffee shop but staff would not serve us before 7am, which seems crazy in a city where it's light well before 6am. Also, the music in the elevator could be improved. It is too loud, and not everyone wants to listen to funk and pop all the time.

Mainly very good
Food at the ground floor restaurant was well below the standard expected Steak served was oozing blood on plate and the cost was excessive for the quality
10 December 2024
Staff impeccable, the stay outstanding even the tv said welcome Katy! Just outstanding and the best hotel stay I’ve had
How they upgraded us, gave a free bottle of Prosecco in our room made us feel so so special on our first trip to Sydney in one of their beautiful junior suites
I DIDNT STAY FOR LONGER!

Ideally located
The Gowrie restaurant is fantastic. The food and service excellent. Rooms were nice, and of a standard size. Location is great, the staff friendly, helpful and courteous.
I’m fussy about my pillow, but it is what it is. Room/bathroom was a little dark than I am used to but I understand the eclectic look it is aiming for.

Best position in the city
Best location, valet parking, lovely staff
Dim lighting, hot in hallways and lifts - no alternative stairs, funnily everywhere smelled like cooking steak - I love steak so that might be a positive :)
29 November 2024
Very pleasant.
Full of character
The only comment I would make is that there was a staff member on the bar who was quite rude and her manner was quite off putting.
28 November 2024
Loved the quirky vibe, great staff, food and validated parking
Great restaurant and very helpful and friendly staff, great vibe generally.
26 November 2024
We will definately return :)
Location was central to everything we were wanting to see. The bed was super comfy and the decor very striking. Being able to visit the theatre next door was so great when at the end of the night we just walked 10 metres to our hotel!
There is nothing to say that is negative about our stay. The staff were terrific, the atmosphere suited us very well, and the dining was all that we wanted. The Gowing building is stunning and we loved the history of the building.

Fabulous Hotel - interesting and enjoyable
I loved the hotel - it was funky, unusual and the architecture of the building was really interesting. I really loved that high end brands were used including Kevin Murphy products, a brand I know and love. Everything I needed was there.
My only complaint was managed extremely well by the staff. There were some expired mini bar products which I didn't realise until after I had started eating them. I mentioned it to the staff at check out and her response was excellent- an apology and my other mini bar item was complimentary. Giving staff the autonomy to make decisions like that is excellent customer service.
