4/10 Fair

Nice decor etc. but some real disappointments
Very disappointed in the bathroom/toilet. They are arranged in such a way that the toilet is flooded when the shower is used. The flooding is unavoidable due to the proximity of the toilet to the shower. The toilet is basically rendered useless/until the floor is mopped. We had to use our bath towels to clean it up. The TV remote would only work if when held close to the TV. Reception did replace the batteries, but this did not resolve the issue. There was no instruction as to how the air con worked. We had to turn it off because we could not increase the temp. By about 3.00am it was freezing. The restaurant menu leaves a lot to be desired.

Post cruise stay in Sydney
Great location! We could hop the train or walk to just about everything. Very friendly staff who acted very fast to resolve any issues we had. They allowed us to check our baggage for free until our room was ready so we could make the most of our first day in Sydney.

Excellent service.
This is our 4th time we have been to your hotel and have no reason to find another in Sydney. We enjoyed the beauty of the old building, yet well kept, your staff is always amazing and we drink lots of coffee and housekeeping or front desk always accommodated. We have stayed with family and shared your hotel with our Hawaii friends.

The hteol was fabulous as was the staff - 1940s decor, even hard wood nightstands. However, and this was NOT the hotel's fault. lots of construction going on outside, in front of and down the street. It made it hard for Uber pick-up and drop off.

Review: Mixed Experience with Room for Improvement
I recently stayed at this hotel and while I was happy with the service and the quick check-in, the hotel itself is quite old and things didn’t work as expected. The air conditioning had no heating option, and the bathroom had no working exhaust fan. The lifts were also very slow, and we weren’t informed by the front desk that we needed to use our key to access our floor, which was frustrating to figure out on our own. That said, the stay was generally comfortable and the location is great, but it’s not one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at, nor will it be my first choice when visiting downtown again.

Room very small, but clean and neat. It would have been lovely to have had a window that could be opened to increase airflow, the zircon is not quite the same. Quiet environment despite the busy street below.

8/10 Very Good

Loved the Art Deco vibe, helpful staff, clean amenities. I also love the fact you can open the window, for fresh air instead of using the air-conditioning. Area adjacent to property is being renovated/re built so it is currently a bit noisy. I expect thst will settle as the works are completed. Its certainly not enough to put us off from staying at the Castlereagh again.

The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable, however, the air con was loud and we couldn’t open the windows for fresh air. I think bottled water should be free. Breakfast was very nice but parking was expensive…….$70 for 16 hours. Overall, I would stay again. Thank you for your service.

10/10 Exceptional

I only gave 4 stars for area because of the works going on in Sydney. Not the hotel’s problem. Fit my budget, felt safe.Price was reasonable, with very helpful staff. Beds were comfortable and the building is a nod to Sydney’s (European) past architecturally. This is a hidden gem. Will definitely stay again.
