Thanks to my sister Denise Kwok, a member of the IHG Hotels group, booked us all to stay at the Intercontinental Hotel Sydney. We all had a very pleasant 4 nights stay. The hotel was conveniently located right at Circular Quay which was so vibrant days and nights. We just loved the atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and very clean. Although the indoor heated swimming pool was relatively smaller than other 5 star hotels’ pool, the view from the pool area taking in the Opera House and Harbour Bridge was just stunning. Front desk staff and breakfast staff’s services were a bit of a mix with most were very friendly and helpful but a couple were lack of smile and patience. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again.

From the moment we walked in at midnight, the night staff were nothing but welcoming, full of information sorting out our car and everything. The room was amazing everything you could want. The beds were super comfy and the room was exceptionally clean. Location is second to none, close to so much around the quay. The view was amazing waking up to the bridge and the boats coming into the harbour for Australia Day.

Honestly had the best 2 weeks staying here. The staff here were exceptional ( special mention to Rinoa at reception), so helpful, friendly and a lovely welcome after a long journey. Breakfast was great with so many choices and the service was brilliant. So happy to see their faces every morning. Our room was amazing, spacious, clean comfortable and we came back to the room with thoughtful gifts waiting for us. A wonderful stay in Sydney would definitely recommend and no hesitation in returning. The best holiday I could have wished for!

A wonderful experience staying at Sydney Intercontinental for the weekend. Met with an attentive and personable Staff who were more than willing to assist with anything. The food was fresh, delicious, and quick when I ordered Room Service. The room was AMAZING with a view over Sydney Harbour, and the decor was so plush, giving that sense of relaxed luxury. I LOVED the lighting system and the automatic curtains. A late checkout was no problem and the automatic online finalising of the bill saved so much time. Highly recommended anytime, if anyone is wondering where to stay close to Circular Quay.

Our family recently stayed at the InterContinental Sydney, and it was truly an outstanding experience from start to finish. The hotel’s location in the CBD is unbeatable, and the views are simply spectacular, waking up to sweeping vistas of Sydney Harbour made our stay feel genuinely special and memorable. The hotel itself was immaculate. Every space, from our room to the common areas, was exceptionally clean and well maintained, which gave us great peace of mind when travelling as a family. The attention to detail in presentation and housekeeping was evident throughout our stay. What really set this experience apart, however, was the staff. Every interaction was warm, professional, and genuinely welcoming. In particular, I would like to commend Leo, Front Office Assistant Manager, and Ria on reception, who both went above and beyond to ensure our stay was seamless and enjoyable. Their professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help with even the smallest requests made a huge difference and exemplified exceptional customer service. Thanks to Leo, Ria, the valet team and all the staff for making it a remarkable stay.
