Our room was very spacious. We had a high ceiling and a large bathroom, but I felt the room was a little too big (it prevented it from feeling cosy). I was a little disappointed that there were no baths, but the shower was good quality. The TV is an old one, suspended on a rack in the corner of... More

This was a business trip but I stayed with my partner, and have stayed before for leisure. So far, the Blacket is my pick for places to stay in Sydney. The hotel is central but the rooms are quiet owing to double-glazed windows. A boutique hotel, which used to be an old nineteenth-century bank (ANZ, I think - there are... More

.....this modern boutique luxury hotel is one of the best hotels I've stayed in. The rooms are modern, clean and trendy. The service here is priceless - always welcoming with friendly, happy & helpful attitudes. Locality speaks for it's self right in the heart of Sydney City - minutes walk to Darling Harbour, The Rocks, Circular Quay and China Town.... More

Hotel extremely unprofessional and disorganised. Suite wasnt available when advised to check in so we were forced to just 'hang around' until they were ready for us. Car parking is an absolute nightmare and totally inconvenient. There is no access swipe card so you must contact Reception and have someone personally escort you EVERY time you want to exit or...

We stayed in an Executive Terrace Suite for one night and came away pretty disappointed. Our $415 room was quite nice - roomy, clean, comfy bed, some signs of wear but overall pretty good. The problem came when our nice expensive room happened to be directly under the 9th floor function room, and being a Saturday night, there was a... More

Stayed here just the one night in a the deluxe room. The room was much bigger than I was expecting, very modern and clean. I loved everything about the room and the bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and the mini bar was the best I've seen! It cost $30 to have my car in the carpark over night, be... More

I booked this hotel on wotif.com and really liked it. It was a 2-story loft, in dark, sleek colors. I thought the amenities were good - restaurant / bar, in-room kitchen and lots of toiletries. The only thing I would update are the TVs - they were a bit outdated so the sound quality was poor. More

First impressions of our smartly decorated albeit dingy room with a view over a multi-storied construction site on the corner of King and Geoge St's in the heart of Sydney's CBD were good but unfortunately didn't last for very long.We stayed in the Blacket over the Queens Birthday weekend and now wished we hadn't. Although the reception staff were lovely... More

I stayed at the Blacket two different times in May when arriving and departing from Sydney. The location of this hotel is fantastic. Easy walk to both Circular Quay, Darling Harbour and shopping on George St. The hotel is very modern, minimalist and decorated with dark colors & wood. I liked this though, it gave nice young & hip impression.... More
