Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Adding to the the grandeur of central Sydney!
    The Town Hall is another striking structure in the center of Sydney. It looks like it would be a museum, but is actually still a functioning government building and also a venue for many public events.

    Worth a visit
    Hidden in the botanical gardens, Government House is definitely worth a visit. If you are lucky enough, do the tour and hear the rich history this beautiful building has to offer. The gardens are also a beautiful place to stop and relax.

    Great historical insight.
    Vicky was a great guide, so knowledgeable about the history of the GPO’s inception and meaning behind the outside sandstone carvings. Beautiful inside decor and history of GPO.

    The most Australian of parliaments
    Coming from Victoria, a relatively young State, I am always amazed by Sydney's age, The Parliament of New South Wales derives from the Rum Hospital, which later became the seat of government for NSW. In 1856, NSW was granted responsible government. The Parliament of NSW looks so colonial. It is not majestic, just authentically Australian. The Chambers are relatively small. As is customary, the Legislative Assembly is green and the Council red. If the Parliament is not sitting, you may be able to take a tour.
