I love this heritage built as it Sets within a beautifully restored 169-year-old sandstone building in the heart of Sydney’s CBD, Paradox Sydney blends timeless elegance with bold individuality. More than a luxury hotel, it’s a destination where heritage meets modern design, and every detail reflects the city’s vibrant spirit. Whether you're here for business or discovery, Paradox Sydney invites you to rest, connect, and return transformed.
Good location in the cbd. Welcomed by a lovely man in a top hat, who is very personable. Rooms are big, comfortable beds and pillows. More like a business hotel than a luxury one but nice all the same. It has a pool, spa, wellness with massage, sauna and a good gym. A bar and restaurant on site. Easy check in and friendly staff.
An elegant hotel with all the amenities we want. We always access the Executive lounge for food, service and relaxing environment. Their steam room is so enjoyable with the perfect sized pool. Nighty drinks, a daily credit for the hotel amenities makes it perfect for me. We enjoy the selections for our comfort throughout the hotel. Highly recommended
Good hotel. Entry to hotel has steps, need staff to help with bags. Concierge services good, willing to help. Reception staff good, efficient. Nice touch fruit at the counter. Used FAX bar for most meals. I think most staff are new , except for one. I think he's name was Chosep, from the Philippines. Very good, efficient, friendly and pro- active. One in particular seems unsure of what to do, maybe need more training. ( Male) Stood around when used plates were still on the table even after customers have finished. One lady even took her used glasses back to the bar for refill. Water was never offered with meals. A good rule of thumb for waiters is don't walk back to work station empty handed if you pass tables with used plates. It saves time later and there's less cluttered to clear closing.
Our time at the Paradox was limited but extremely enjoyable. From the second we arrived we were looked after to a very high standard. Notably by the staff member, David. From the very beginning David made us feel very well looked after and provided nothing but the best service. One night we asked for some thing to be delivered up to our room, and he was willing to assist us to make sure our stay was the best possible, ensuring to us he was there to deliver and serve for us.
