Best Hotels near Masterpiece Jewellery Opals and Gems, Sydney

I organised a group get together of 74+ year olds. A reunion 50 years after medical school graduation. Everyone was so happy. The GM Klaus was very corporative in arranging a 'gala' dinner for us in a separate room. The desk staff courteous and helpful. The rooms were small - but very elegantly designed. The lighting subtle and pleasant. Beds comfortable. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. THANK YOU

Located in The Rocks, walking distance to Circular Quay. Need to be a mountain goat to walk here, especially with luggage. Once dropped off, explore the beautiful Rocks area. I caught the train to Circular Quay, where the Opera House and Harbour Bridge is. Then walked up many, many stairs to get here. Well worth it. Very modern, even though it's built over an archaeological site of part of the old Rocks area. Beautifully done and preserved. Room was very modern and clean, albeit expensive for a double ensuite room. But i did not mind paying for the location and cleanliness. Bathroom modern and clean. Lockers available for long term hire. I can not rate it highly enough The rooftop of this hostel!!?? Absolutely second to none. Perfect views of the Opera House, Bridge and harbour

I had such a good stay there. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were particularly excellent - every person was incredibly kind and friendly. Binay was really lovely and helpful and Jandro, the manager was wonderful and always had an incredibly welcoming smile. I wasn’t expecting such a good experience considering how cheap it was, right in the heart of the city, but the hotel ticks all the boxes. I would definitely recommend this, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

This is an amended review to highlight the ongoing lack of communication from the hotel. It is fair to say that the hotel had some great things going for it but, sadly, customer support is not one of them. Breakfast was excellent and the roof top Aster bar was a great place to enjoy a cocktail and see some spectacular sunsets. However, the whole thing was let down by extremely lacklustre support from the management down. My wife lost her glasses in the hotel. They are prescription reading glasses in very distinct designer frames and were in a sparkly gold box. We asked at the desk during check out if they had been found and were told that they had not been handed in but that reception would check with the Aster bar, where we believe they had been left but was closed at the time of check out. We were due to be in Sydney again in 4 days and the receptionist took all the details and a description of the glasses and case and said that she would email me to give me an update. Sadly we didn’t hear back. Four days later when we returned to Sydney we checked back at the hotel there was no note against our booking and the duty receptionist said nothing could be done but was unable to confirm if a check had been made in the Aster rooftop bar. I asked to speak to the duty manager and an Irish lady, whose name I sadly didn’t get, came out to speak to me. She was very apologetic and said it was not the normal standard we should expect from the hotel and promised to speak to the Aster staff and that she would get back to me by email before the end of the day. Sadly, no further communication was forthcoming and a follow up email to the hotel remains unanswered. We realise that the loss was our fault but the lack of interest from the staff and unfulfilled, empty promises from the management would definitely deter us from staying there again. It would appear that the management have no interest in fostering customer satisfaction.

The hotel is beautiful, perfectly clean and comfortable to stay in. The guest service employees were extremely helpful. While I checked out I needed to wait for about 15 minutes for housekeeping to check my room whether I consumed anything from the mini bar. That was the only thing that made me uncomfortable. But overall I’m satisfied and I would definitely come back.

From the first steps in front door of hotel to reception area I felt welcome. This friendly welcoming professional attitude makes you feel like part of the hotel family quickly. My room was lovely and spacious. The bathroom was well equipped and the Dyptique products are tops. The observation lounge was comfortable and the drinks divine. Staff there is very capable. The spa pool and facilities excellent. I wanted to have the Sunday high tea and although the tearoom was full staff was able to arrange for me and my guests to enjoy it in the lounge. And it was perfect. Finally the ginger flower signature scent is relaxing and heightened my experience. I will always chose Langham first whenever I can.

Julien and Michael, we stayed from Sunday night to Tuesday morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. I like the room it had lots of space and was very warm. Bed good and comfy, slept well each night. Bathroom Nice and cosy. Shower was always warm and pressure good.

Great location right in the centre of The Rocks area in Sydney. Located on George St, the hotel is opposite the Overseas Cruise Terminal, surrounded by plenty of restaurants and pubs and is beside the Rocks Markets that are open on weekends. While the location is superb, sadly the hotel is very much underwhelming in comparison to what I've experienced at other Rydges properties. The hotel is old, but not in an old world style, just plain old and tired. Bed was comfortable and the rooms are very much basic. Apart from a desk and chair, there was only one other chair and no lounge in the room. As a warning to anyone who has access issue, each of the floors are on two levels and the lifts don't stop on the alternative levels so you'll need to use a flight of about 8 steps between each level. My room had the shower over the bath which was only just over 3 foot long. The shower ceiling was so long that I couldn't stand up properly and the hot water was so scolding hot (obviously no tamping valves) that with the cold water on full I only just turned the hot on otherwise it was too hot. Rooms are individually air conditioned but with ours set to 19.5° it was still really warm. The TV is so low it's near impossible to watch from the bed (remember no lounge or table to sit at) and really needs to be mounted on the wall. On a positive the staff were really good, friendly and helpful, though I was alarmed to watch the young lady checking people into the restaurant for breakfast, walk past and pick up a piece of bacon from the surface area beside the bowls and toss it back in with the other bacon and then mix it in with the rest.

My family of 4 stayed at this eclectic treasure. Friendly and accommodating staff and an amazing location. It’s in the heart of the city and less than a block from the train station to easily access any attractions. Tons of shopping and restaurants blocks away and a lovely restaurant on site. The building is charming and beautiful, refurbished in the original style and elegance. Firm beds and quality linen, which is an obsession of mine on vacation. It was amazing to see the hustle and bustle of the city but the noise from the street didn’t invade our room. This was a perfect oasis, in the middle of everything! We loved our stay!!!

The location of the hotel is very convenient. I love the warming welcome of hotel staffs. Even thought the hotel is not new, but the cleanliness level was good. I have trouble sleeping and the bed was clean. There are constructions nearby, but there was no disturbance.
