    Beautiful historic exterior and unique all new interior design. Choose from a modern Heritage suite with higher ceilings and checked bathroom tiles or a contemporary suite. Situated in the centre of Sydney - easy walking distance to each major area of the city including major shops and sights. Excellent location.

    I loved the nice bathroom / bath tub set up!

    Westin Sydney (The): A perfect hotel at a perfect price    Check Rates

  • We chose the Westin for the Sydney leg of our honeymoon after reading some good reviews online. We were not disappointed. We opted for a room in the modern Tower rather than the period-style Heritage rooms in the older part of the building. The hotel was absolutely perfect. Flawless (and I mean flawless) service, a luxurious, contemporary-style room and all at a great price. I cannot find a single fault with the Westin. You may not have a view of the Opera House, but let's face it, how long are you going to spend sitting in your room looking out the window? The lower rates more than make up for this, in my opinion. As it was our honeymoon, a relative had kindly paid for an upgrade to the 'Executive package' which includes complimentary Continental breakfast, use of the Executive lounge (newspapers, TV, pre-dinner drinks etc) and other benefits. The rack rate for this upgrade is 66 AUSD per night but I think discounts are available, so you might want to consider it. We also tried the hotel's non-complimentary breakfast buffet which was very impressive too. Try the eggs royale!The Westin also has the advantage of having some great restaurants in its basement floor, so you don't have to travel very far to find a good place to eat (we actually found the CBD area of Sydney a little short of places to have dinner at night so this was a bonus). The basement bar/dining area is buzzing on a Friday night, quieter at the weekends. All in all, I would give the Westin a perfect 10 out of 10.

    Outstanding selection of restaurants on premises. Central location provides easy access to whole city. Wonderful service.

    The accomodation
    by SydneyGal
    The Westin Sydney, located in the heritage listed redevelopment of the General Post Office, originally constructed in 1887, and converted to a hotel around 1999. Flanked on either side by Sydney's famous Pitt and George Street, overlooking Martin Place, the hotel is close to Pitt Street Mall and Queen Victoria Building shopping, the Opera House, Harbour Bridge and Darling Harbour.

    The rooms have a clear glass dividing wall between the bedroom and bathroom, making the rooms appear larger and of course there is the novelty factor! Very new and modern rooms.

  • Location in a beautiful heritage Post Office building in Sydneys CBD area of Martin Place this area is thriving with suits!

    This is not just a hotel but a whole experience. From the cheese room and osyter bar in the basement to the beautiful rooms. You can wander around the old part of this hotel to look at some amazing architecture.

    This is predominately a business hotel, however they cater to leisure guest and have one of the most prestigious gyms in the city.

    Hotel rooms are modern, streamlined and one of the best things is that you move the bathroom mirrors to view the bedroom and the TV!

  • We had a wonderful time in this hotel and recommend it to anyone wanting style and sophistication. The facilities and service are first class while the location could not be more central. Rooms were thoroughly cleaned daily and amenities were great. Sydney has a lot to offer visitors travelling with young kids.

  • Superb service. Room decorations are beautifull. Right next to the city center for shopping and business, as well as within walking distance to the toruistic areas. Great restaurant on the premises, or you can walk to Circular Quay (ferry terminal, The Rocks area, and The Opera House).

    Internet service. Fitness club (for a steep fee). The Old Post office shopping and dining complex is right within the premises, offering extra (sometimes more reasonable) dining options.

    I can only add to the praise other reviewers have posted on this website. My wife and I started and ended our two week stay in Australia at the Westin Sydney. We spent a total of four nights at this hotel, and were impressed with everything from the decor of the Tower rooms (very stylish), demeanour of the staff (extremely friendly), to the accessibility to harbour and other Sydney sights (all walking distance).

    We were able to get upgrades to their club-level suites (my wife and I both have status with Starwood), but even if you are not a member of the program, I highly recommend you consider paying the difference to purchase a stay at the club-level. This will afford you access to the wonderful club lounge, where refreshments are served all day long. My wife and I enjoyed the food here so much that we found ourselves skipping meals out on the town. If you think about it, you'll make back the extra money you shell out for an upgrade by saving on food expenditures around Sydney.

    Overall we had an amazing experience at the Westin -- our room was possibly one of the best that we have ever stayed in. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone considering accommodation in Sydney.
