“Great Location Four Points”

Four Points by Sheraton Darling Harbour

5 of 5 stars
Washington DC

1/1 found this review helpful

I stayed here for a work trip (included one weekend). The location is terrific (similar to what other raters have posted). The hotel is walking distance to many sightseeing attractions (as well as the business district). In Darling Harbor there are many restaurants all around the perimeter of the water.

Note, right now they do not have internet access (high speed) in the rooms on floors 4 and below so if you want a room with in-room internet access (that you have to pay for either hourly or for the day) you will need to request a room on floors 5 and above. There is free wireless access from the lobby though.

Concierge was very helpful--got us 4th row tickets to the opera with only 2 days' lead time. The bellhop at the hotel recommended not using the Airport Connector bus (there are other bus services that will service the Four Points to/from the airport). He said they were not very reliable and my friend had that experience--she bought a round-trip bus ticket when she first arrived in Sydney and took the bus to the Four Points hotel. She called to make her reservation to head back to the airport the day before her trip. They never showed up!

Another alternative is to take the train from the airport to the "Town Hall" stop and then walk to the hotel--not bad with light luggage. The train was very quick (15 min).

Overall, I would stay there again for leisure or business.

“Nice Location, OK Staff”

Four Points by Sheraton Darling Harbour

4 of 5 stars
Huntington, Indiana
Mar 10, 2008

Our first place that became our home for five days in Sydney. Great location to everything, easy walk around Darling Harbour. Taxis a plenty for everything else. Great location to catch tours and what-not.

Staff was a bit difficult at first, had our room but didn't want to let us in (after 30 hours of travelling, I was getting a bit out of place). Restaurant is quite expensive and really not fantastic. Avoided for rest of trip. Had problem with some charges, front desk finally gave me free internet for most of the trip because of it.

Otherwise, nice place and would stay there again. That is, if we could get a good deal.

“Great place to stay”

Four Points by Sheraton Darling Harbour

Mar 8, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

Enjoyed the stay here and the staff were helpful. The room was comfortable with a good view over Darling Harbour. (Having read earlier reviews on this site we did not upgrade to a balcony. There was no point in sitting above a busy road.)
Breakfasts were fine although the restaurant was always crowded and it was not a particularly relaxing experience.
Apart from that the hotel was fine and we would stay there again.

Beautiful hotel. Great location. Its so near Darling Harbour!

The food (room service) is excellent. The beds are comfortable.

Just beware, the lack of Internet access (wired, or wireless) if you are in a room on floors 1-4. Wifi is available in the business center or lobby only.

“Spectacular Views of the Harbor”

Four Points by Sheraton Darling Harbour

Mar 3, 2008

Well worth the premium for a harbor view. Spectacular. Doormen and other staff very helpful. Thanks Tony for your assistance with our missing luggage and the refund from the store across the street. Great location. Right in the center of everything. Can't wait to go back.
