Lovely location besides Ruscutters Bay. Great for morning or evening walks and away from the bedlam of Kings Cross. Not well positions for easy walks to the trains. Rooms were OK but maintenance is lacking. I had to change my first room when the phone would not work and the TV was emitting a high pitched squeel which was awaful... More

This was our accommodation for our Virgin Mystery Break from Perth, we had both been to Sydney before so we keen to see some more of the sights. On arrival to the hotel we checked in and were greeted by a very nice young man called Shayne. The room was adequate as we were not going to be spending much... More

A pleasant enough hotel without any wow-factor. 24hr reception, a large reception and bar/restaurant area with comfortable furniture, an excellent rooftop pool with harbour views are all four-star features. The rooms are of a contemporary style, with cheap furniture, softer than usual mattresses, and a good sized bathroom. The showers have a hot and cold tap (Old skool) which pleased... More

Ikea like furniture, average sized rooms, though it's a clean establishment. The beds however were not comfy to me! The star of this place is the pool. A nice place to relax on the rooftop on a glorious day. Not the best area to stay in public transport wise, there are better options in this regard. Though I like walking... More

This hotel was part of our package, not one we chose on our own. As others have shared, it's an average hotel with small but clean rooms. The breakfast buffet had good breads and cereals, but the hot food was awful--slimy scrambled eggs (we were sure they weren't even eggs!) and cold pancakes. If the buffet hadn't been included in...

Stay a couple of times because my husband went Sydney for training. If you don't need to stay in Rushcutters bay, then not recommended. Bus stop only 5 min walk, and a few buses can take you to CBD or Bondi, without changing bus. There is a pizza shop and milk bar, so you don't worry about food if you... More

We were in Sydney to see a specific show so had plenty of time in the hotel. Good deal (Wotif) and the hotel is in a great location near Kings Cross. Room faced over back yards of houses and into windows of apartments behind. Choose carefully if you want a view. Pool is outdoor, opens post 7am and closes around... More

My husband and I stayed in the Vibe Rushcutters Bay in March 2012 to see the Picasso Exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW, we got a great deal, which is why I love Vibes promos.
