Guest Reviews
- Julie (9/5): good location and nice room -
- Timothy (10/5): Perfect weekender - I’ve stayed in many Sydney hotels, can’t believe I’ve not found this sooner. Great location, fair parking prices and very good rooms
- Rebecca (8/5): - Comfy beds, staff were friendly and explained everything well. Close enough to walk to darling harbor
- Yongfu (10/5): -
- jodi (4/5): Disappointing - Clean, convenient location, parking. We didn’t get the bed configuration that we booked (twin singles) and the staff knew this when we checked in but still sent us to the room even though I asked before we went up. When I came back down to let them know, they said they would upgrade us to a better room (twin king size beds). The room they put us in was connected to some sort of loud generator that kicked in at 10pm as we were just about to go to sleep and continued with a loud buzzing noise and vibration until it finally turned off at 6am. We had zero sleep which was not a great way to start Mother’s Day.
- Roimata (9/5): Will return again great location still quiet but close to everything - Perfect location clean and comfortable
- Prioux (10/5): -
- Sela (7/5): - A nice room, big bed, nice bathroom, Big TV Bad location
- Carolyn (10/5): Great place to stay - Was within walking distance of where we were going very clean and comfy. Lovely big room with balcony staff all very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great and at a good price.
- Babak (8/5): Overall ok - Location Check in process scanned our photo IDs like dealing with criminals 🙄
I frequently travel everywhere but it’s the first time a hotel took photos of our photo IDs!

- Nicola (9/5): Clean, spacious room and convenient location - The room was very comfortable and spacious. We had three single beds which suited us perfectly, plus there was also room for a sofa. The central location was very convenient. Would recommend. It was all fine!

- Eva (6/5): Wouldn’t recommend, paying for discomfort. - Quiet surrounds, peaceful part of the city. The room I was given had a couple of issues so I won’t be returning. My room - 201 - was attached to another hotel room through a door that remains locked and the noise levels are INSANE. You can hear every little conversation between the guests in the room next door, it was truly an uncomfortable experience. Aside from that, the amenities are very cheap, some are Kmart brand, and it shows. The iron was leaking water, the hair dryer was so old it barely had power left in it, this is the second time I’ve had to tell staff across two separate stays to fix the safe - it’s always low battery, and the pillows are flat and old. The pride reflects all of this, and I won’t be returning.

- Eve (8/5): Great location to explore Sydney - The room was clean, and comfortable, but a bit cold. The location was very convenient, a 20 minutes walk from Central Station. We walked almost everywhere, even to Circular Quay. The room felt cold and damp sometimes. I didn't like the smell of the heating system. We had to wait quite a bit for our room, but we appreciate that they put us in a quiet area, like we asked.
- Robert (9/5): Good for walking to attractions and value for money in Sydney Central - Location was good, but a few small hills to navigate to get up and down to Darling Harbour and Chinatown. Wear sensible and comfortable shoes for walking to attractions. The bed could have been a more comfortable, but ok, and the pillows were very flat. You needed to step in and out of the shower bath and there were no rails to hold on to, so a slip hazard if you have mobility problems. Better not to have a bath and just a shower. TV was playing up a bit with glitches in signal to free to air.
- Julia (10/5): Great stay - Lovely staff. Very clean. Great location. The room had everything that we needed for our overnight stay with our family of 4. There is a complimentary hot drinks station in the lobby and tea/coffee in the room. Onsite parking at an extra cost is very convenient. N/A

- Comstive (8/5): - Location, just a short walk from Paddy's market and Darling Harbour, but tooked away on a quet residential street
- CLELIA (10/5): -
- Sam (1/5): - This hotel had bed bugs and when I showed management the bites they said they checked the room and couldn’t find any. But they moved me to another room and fumigated the room with my items in there. Won’t stay again. I complained to the City of Sydney as well. Rooms had bed bugs and management didn’t care
- ahmednW3195IH (8/5): Good hotel close to china town - bathroom sink was a bit outdated with slow drainage but in general everything else was fine. It is a good hotel, close to china town and you can get discount on op on&hop off bus if you book through their website with late check out as well
- Sherpa53621201734 (10/5): Back again. - Close to Darling Harbour.
Parking available. Clean and Comfortable. Good value. Family options - rooms for 5 or connecting rooms.
- Lisa (8/5): Good size room within easy walking distance to the main attractions - Close to darling harbour
Good size room
Staff were friendly Bit of noise from other rooms
- ZHISHENG (6/5): 太贵了 - 早餐还不错 隔音差 阳台门锁坏的
- Jia Yi (7/5): A quiet place to stay, short walk to the various Trains and local transport. - Enjoyed the room and how spacious it is, it does seem abit old but the room turns out to be very comfortable.
Tv was a surprise to have all the different types of apps like Netflix, Youtube all available. Flooring carpet seems abit old, with stains at some locations.
- ZHISHENG (6/5): 一般,太贵了 - 早餐还不错 隔音太差,阳台门锁是坏的
- O4084KWemilyf (6/5): Basic 3 star room, nothing fancy - Quiet location slightly out of CBD. Lovely 10-15 min walk into town.
Rooms were basic but sufficient. Cleanliness was ok, although carpet had lots of stains on it.
I was a little disappointed with breakfast as the quality of food was also average and different to the pictures on display.
Car park was convenient but a little dirty and smelly.
All in all, satisfactory experience but wasn’t “wowed” at anything.

- Ian (9/5): -
- weston888 (6/5): Great breakfast setting - It was a little out of the way, staff weren’t welcoming and the balcony was grubby. However it was the cheapest accommodation I could find for Sydney over $300 a night. Breakfast setting was beautiful and peaceful .
- Amber (10/5): -
- Craig (7/5): Always a good place to stay - The location is easy to get/drive to and then ideal to go into the city
- Clelia (7/5): -
- Satoshi (9/5): -
- 622agustind (10/5): Surprisingly good - Comfortable room, easy to access car park, quick check-in and check-out. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. I did not order room service or have breakfast. Will be back, for sure.
- Rachel (8/5): -
- R470TLsallyh (10/5): Great location, great staff - This was the second time I have stayed in this hotel. The main reasons I chose it again (and will continue to choose it in the future) are its convenient location and the outstanding service provided by staff on the front desk. This time I decided it was worth creating a Trip Advisor account to share my positive experiences when interacting with staff. When our group (two teachers in charge of Japanese university students on a study tour of Australia) arrived on Feb 21 before the official check-in time, Depisha was of great assistance in storing our luggage and later facilitating the check-in process in an exceptionally efficient manner. I greatly appreciated this as I was exhausted from problems we had experienced earlier in the day while traveling. Later on, Iriene gave me very helpful advice on where to go for lunch and also showed great understanding and kindness in assisting me with another matter. Thanks to you both, and I look forward to staying at the Metro Aspire again in future!

- Jo (10/5): We always enjoy staying here. - We have stayed here many times, easy to get too and secure parking. This time I came for an operation and we were there for a few days. The staff went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. Nil problems

Only 1 of 4 lifts working
Mini bar menu items not available as advertised for purchase from reception
- Patrick (6/5): - Die Betten waren sehr gemütlich! Zu wenig Steckdosen vorallem an einer Bettseite garkeine.
Das Frühstück lohnt sich für 25 pro Person überhaupt nicht!
Teilweise hat nur einer von vier Aufzügen funktioniert!
- Eva (5/5): - Voda na recepci celý den👍 Hlučné pokoje od sousedů šlo slyšet všechno .špinavý balkon a hluk z klimatizaci
- Lisa (10/5): Mum and daughter weekend - Everything the room was amazing and location is perfect The only thing I found the breakfast was expensive thats why we didn't have even tho we wanted it
- Yveline (8/5): - Le personnel est très professionnel et serviable Beaucoup de bruit au dessous ou a côté, comme des portes qui claquent souvent
- Gurdeep (10/5): Tucked in the city, quiet and excellent rooms - Good location Excellent overall
- Alana (10/5): Lovely - Location and staff Tv did not work - foldout bed uncomfortable
- Ghislaine (8/5): -
- Julie (9/5): Great location, clean and tidy and helpful staff - highly recommend. - The hotel is located just an easy walk to Darling Harbour and all of the attractions on offer. Hotel was very clean and tidy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall couldn't ask for any more. Would recommend highly.
- Shannan (9/5): Clean tidy, comfortable, modern hotel, conveniently located in the city - Conveniently located with large modern and clean rooms with exceptional customer service. Car park on site was a huge bonus at a very reasonable price. The first room that we were checked into clearly smelt like cigarette smoke the Staff very happily moved us without a fast which was fantastic however, it is disappointing that the housekeeping didn’t identify the smell when they were making up the room as it was very obvious
- Cristian (2/5): -
- Francis (8/5): Awesome - Best breakfast..value for money Lunch or dinner menues
- Takashi (8/5): -
- Lau Kwok Doung (7/5): - Room is spacious with king bed, sofa, desk... Bathroom is clean. Cockroach in room, dining not opened during stay, sofa not very comfortable, internet unsecured
- David (7/5): - Ideally located Maps couldn't locate the property
- Sara (8/5): Pleasant and fun! - Clean comfortable and quiet at a very fair price. Very helpful and accommodating staff allowed earlier check-in because the room was ready. Having parking available on site (although for an extra fee, the price was very reasonable) was so convenient. My kids thought the pancake machine and pump pack of Nutella at breakfast buffet were the best things that ever happened to them. The glass roof water feature in the dining area was a great point of interest. Couldn’t get sliding door to balcony to close/lock after we went out there. The building is older so I guess it had some quirks like this.
- Jamie (7/5): -
