Didn't stay at the hotel only popped in got a meal on impulse whilst passing. Enjoyed a very well priced roast of the day with all the trimmings. Was delicious though could have been served warmer. More

Yes, there’s a stunning view from any bedroom (improves slightly as the room number decreases and the floor levels increase). Certainly I spent ten days here and never tired of looking over the busy stretch of water round that “coathanger” bridge. But the hotel is also conveniently next to a station only a couple of stops from the heart of... More

Good view to harbor even sitting on the toilet commode you have the view. Clean enough, Bed is too soft. Room may be worth 100, but another 100 they must be charging for the view. Internet is expensive, $25!. Do not touch anything goodies kept on the shelf in the room...finger might burn....expensive. Last week I had the most expensive... More

I used to often stay at the Harbour View because it was close by our offices in North Sydney but, even with the superb views, I got sick of the old worn out rooms. When I stayed here again recently I was pleasantly surprised. There is a major refurbishment going on and the room I stayed in had just been... More

So ask for a room with a view of lavender bay The rooms are a decent size. Its right next to the train line... More

I found the Harbour View online after looking for a serviced apartment with a view to stay for a week or so in Sydney. The view, as promised, did not fail to impress, and the close proximity to the McMahon's point ferry terminal was fantastically convenient - a perfect base from which to give Sydney a whirl. There are many... More
