The only way I would stay here is the way we did, on my husband's free hotel points! It was a very nice hotel, but for as much as it costs to even stay there, it drives me crazy that internet access in your room is an additional $29 per day, plus the high prices on everything in the mini bar. If you do stay there, just buy your own drinks and snacks and use their fridge.
Also, the website doesn't seem to work properly to make reservations, so you will probably have to call in. Therefore, I couldn't figure out exactly what it costs to stay there per night, but my hubby said probably about $299/night. There are no rooms with two double beds... just a room with a king or two single beds or you have to spring for adjoining rooms or a suite.
Recently renovated with modern furnishings - I really liked the glass desk - and you could operate the blinds and all the lights in the place from a panel right next to the bed
I am also a bath time expert and they had a wonderful, relaxing bathtub! It was just the right length and had the perfect slope at the back for lounging. The bath gel in the room also provided very nice bubbles!
However, the bathroom walls & doors were completely glass (frosted, but still...) so you probably don't want to stay in a room with someone you don't know very well! :)

I would definitely recommend this hotel to others, if if its in your budget. We stayed for one night after exausting all the hostels. It was wonderful. It's in a great location, lots of restaurants near by and things to do. It's contemporary decor from the moment you walk in to your bedroom had me taking pictures non-stop. The service was wonderful and the staff was friendly. They held our bags the following day for us until we left town. THe morning we left, we went to the pool, it was quiet and clean and big enough to do laps. We then realxed in the jacuzzi, which was a good size and finshed off with the sauna. It was a pleasure to stay here and I would do it again in a heart beat(of course if the finances allowed it.
It's in a great location. The pool is great, and they have a steam room. The bar upstairs is chic and a great place to relax and have a drink. THey also have interent in the room which makes it perfect if you have business to take care of.

I was lucky enough to get a free stay with one of the staff who worked at the Hilton.
I have never stayed in such luxury in all my life!
We got to stay in a standard room - which has a large queen sized bed, a flat screen
tv with various foxtel chanels and a lovely bathroom with shower and bath - and of
course some lovely white robes to wear (but you can't take them home unless you pay for them) - I believe this standard room was over $200 AU a night. Apparently the luxury suites have a bath at the end of the bed and an even bigger tv.
We were also lucky enough to dine at the Glass Brasserie - 5 star service, including a personal waiter who manages small sections of the room - so you get top service. The food was amazing, i've never been so full in my life. I'm glad we didn't have to pay because the dinner ended up being around $230 AU.
The Hotel is one of the newest in Sydney. The interior has very modern, shieke designs - decorated by some of the worlds best interior designers.
The staff are all professional, well dressed and polite - from the people who greeted me at reception to the lovely gentleman who hailed me a cab and opened the door for me i've never felt quite so pampered in my life.
Like all Hiltons - the Sydney Hilton has a LivingWell facility - with exercise equipment, saunas and spas. The service her is of course 5 star. You are greeted at the front desk and given your own personal towel and directed to the facilities that you want to go to.
Funtion Rooms - The Hilton is equipped with many large function / event rooms for all sorts of occasions.
Location - One of the best things about the Hilton is it is close to some of the best areas in Sydney - the Queen Victoria Building is right across the road and it is also close to The Rocks and Darling Harbour. It is also easy to get to by public transport.
Bars and Restraunts - Situated all in the Hilton there are many places to dine and have fun.
Be aware that everything is rather expensive and it may be best to exit the hotel and go down to the local bar!

The Hilton has recently undergone a $100 million renovation, so just about everything is new - although the famous Marble Bar was kept just as it was.
It's typical Hilton in terms of facilities and service, although personally I don't like the design of the public areas. The rooms though are very good, especially the Executive floor rooms which are huge and some of the best in town. They also give you access to the Executive Club with complimentary breakfast, evening drinks & snacks.
The Executive floor rooms are exceptional, beautifully designed and finished, with plenty of space, a walk-in wardrobe and very large bathroom.
Naturally they have bathrobes, slippers, iron & board, hair dryer, full range of bathroom toiletries, plenty of new fluffy towels, a workdesk, broadband internet access.
