The staff at Castlereagh worked hard for our high rating. They were so thoughtful and kind, helping my two children and I whenever we were in need. We loved our spacious yet cozy room and our comfy beds. Everything we needed was within walking distance, including all means of PT. We were all very comfortable and grateful for our stay here, and highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely foyer. Beautiful building.. Staff good. Good location. Room —— we were advised that we had been upgraded to a newly renovated room. Well it had mould on the tiles, big patch of grouting around the shower tap and hairs left on the shower walls.

The room was a nice size for two people with two beds. The lobby and breakfast room were beautiful. I enjoyed the fresh fruit, pastries, coffee, juice, and cereal for breakfast. A hot breakfast was also offered. The location was perfrct for walking everywhere in the Sydney City Center. The reception was very helpful giving us local maps to explore and for getting us a taxi when we were ready to leave for the airport.

This place is good for an older crowd who appreciate a concierge and security. This is a historic building and I liked that it had a big clean bathtub which was perfect after my beach day. I didn’t like how the “historic” elevator and room required a traditional key. This made it less ideal if you’re having a guest come up. I also didn’t like that the water and small can of chips in the room were not free and I didn’t realize that until I opened them and read the note. Something simple as complementary bottled water that is replenished daily would have swayed me to consider this place in the future. But I would not stay here again.

I liked the 1920’s style of the hotel. After travelling a few days, I appreciated the laundry facilities. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was large. Only one complaint was the toilet would randomly flush, from time to time.

The hotel was in a great location however the air conditioner was so noisy that we were woken every time it turned on. I would not stay in room 612 again. Maybe another room if the air conditioning wasn’t too loud.
