Was very excited to stay at the Shangri-la Sydney. Had just left the Shangri-la Cairns which was fantastic to arrive in Sydney and be checked in by the staff, who weren’t welcoming or friendly. Our bags were mixed up with the other people in our party and we got the wrong suitcases delivered to the room. There was dust in the room and it stayed there for the full 5 nights of our stay. We did have an nespresso machine but only large mugs, had to use the paper cups from the free water machine and requested cups to be sent up and it was just an ordinary cup not an espresso cup (we got these in cairns. Also got free water in Cairns). Went up to the bar, we waited and waited and eventually had to go up and ask for service. There was only three other people in the bar and 5 staff. When we had ordered, the manger ( I’m assuming) pulled our waiter away from making our drinks to move a table. We also went to the downstairs bar at happy hour and just one member of staff on to serve the drinks, and a lot of orders. So a long wait was had. To be honest the only thing going for this hotel was the view. It’s dated, needs totally redone and staff need to be more welcoming. Maybe a trip to the the Shangri la Cairns to see how it’s done

Unfortunately this was a stay which was missed. Last one was awesome. Got upgraded but bed and room was average. Comfort of bed was awful. Toilet was not flushing main bathroom. Had courtesy of staff knocking on door 11.50pm to turn a provided Bose system off. It was and we checked 45 decibels we simply had background music. Breakfast we had cold meals.. credit to staff offered replacements but it was clear a pre prep meal and stone cold. Def no way the place it was some year’s ago!

We were only 2 nights before our cruise, but enjoyed our stay. However, we arrived very early morning and the desk said they would text us when our room was ready, in an effort to prioritize us. They did not text, and we only found out it was ready when we went to the desk later afternoon and asked. Our luggage was even already in there. Also, we booked the 'deluxe darling harbour view' room, but our view was the highway to the bridge, not the harbour. Very disappointing. So don't believe the photos they show for the view from that room. We were on the 6th floor.
