Booked and paid for two nights at the Crowne Plaza in advance at a fairly good rate for Sydney. Seems that these rates are offered to get you in the door and then the hotel slaps a number of hidden charges that are levied when you check out. We're only talking relatively small money (A$12 per night), but at no... more

The Crowne Plaza at Darling harbour is one of the better hotels that I stay at in Sydney and I do stay at a lot! I like the Crowne Plaza for its convenience to Town Hall station. Rooms are great especially 1021 which i stayed at. Top floor overlooking darling harbour. Go for a Darling Harbour view room when staying... more

Taxi's don't take long and the guy that makes the omlette's in... more

It was nicely postitioned (we had booked a harbour view but it was not that good - Four Points had a... more

My husband and I booked the Crowne Plaza in Darling Harbour for two nights. When we arrived after our evening flight from Tasmania the receptionist told us that they were overbooked and we don't have a room. That he proceeded to start searching for a room for us in other hotels. Eventually ( twenty-thirty minutes later) we were told that... more
