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.

Older hotel but well maintained in a fantastic location for tourists. 2 mins walk and you are on circular key directly behind the cruise ship terminal. 10 min walks to the ferrys and then another 5 mins to the opera house. The Rocks markets are outside the door at the weekend. 10 min walk to the heart of Sydney shopping. If you like to jog in the mornings this location is heaven sent.

The room on the 10th floor was small although very quiet. Even had a bit of a view of the harbour bridge although window would not open. If you want space then this is not the place to be and some of the Meriton apartments look far better value uptown however for a tourist out and about the room is just a place to sleep and was quiet and bed comfortable.

Sydney is not the bargain destination for Brits it used to be and when we stayed the V festival had filled all the best hotel bargains. This place offered us a 3 night deal with breakfast which was'nt cheap but was good value that weekend. The breakfast was very good although had to make your own coffee using their expresso machine which was a bit annoying.

We wanted to stay somewhere central for a few nights and you don't really get much more central than this. Located slap bang in the middle of The Rocks, there's tons of restaurants, shops and bars just outside. I thought it would be noisy, but we couldn't hear a thing in our room (first floor, at the back facing a restaurant).

The room was fairly basic (and certainly in need of modernisation), but comfortable. Definitely not up to scratch with most Holiday Inns. The swimming pool on the roof is small, but has an amazing view of the harbour and bridge, and it's not bad for lounging around and shaking off the jetlag.

For the money we paid though, you can certainly stay in some much nicer down-town hotels in Sydney.

Stayed here for 5 nights, it's the perfect place to be in Sydney, very central, not too noisy, plenty of good restaurants nearby in the Rocks area.

Room overlooked Harbour Bridge which was perfect, bathroom clean but ready for a renovation, otherwise everything was great, staff very helpful, gave us umberallas for the couple of rainy days we had. Would definately go back.
