Kensington beach accommodation

Very handy to the international airport after a long flight, clean and comfortable

Excellent location, short walk to Darling harbour/ Barangaroo and to the city. No swimming pool. Good buffet breakfast facilities, excellent bar on roof top looking out over the harbour and surrounds, but pricey $$. Bed was quite hard, shower had good pressure. Room was very quiet on city side of the hotel. Found all staff pleasant and helpful.

Room cleanliness was sub-par for a hotel of this calibre. I’ve had numerous black hair in the shower and several areas had a serious dust accumulation.

The staff was helpful and friendly, and we appreciated a boxed breakfast to take with us for the days when we were unable to dine in for breakfast since our package included a daily breakfast meal.

I am a walker and could walk everywhere I wanted to go: good public transport close by if preferred. I booked three nights ahead of a cruise, the location was more than adequate for Darling Harbour & the Quay, Rocks, Opera House, Botanical Gardens etc.

Our stay at the W Hotel was excellent! Nice room with a great view! Very good amenities like the pool and very friendly staff. All contributed to a wonderful experience. For improvement would probably be the variety of food choices at the breakfast buffet as there were some items that we were looking for that were not part of the selection. Overall it was a great experience!
