They've done a brilliant job of bringing back the 50's beach club transition from beach, to bar, to hotel. Beautifully designed & well thought out for guests needs. The continental breakfast that's included is very adequate & beautifully laid out. Staff are plentiful, well dressed & ready to help with a smile. Rooms are modern, clean & very comfortable. Loved the free wifi too! Little thoughtful additions like T2 & cafe style biscuits on a sweet green tray waiting for you in your room make you...

We recently stayed for three nights in a refurbished Horizon Room at the Shangri-La Sydney and were thoroughly impressed from start to finish. The room was spotless, modern, and incredibly well equipped, nothing was overlooked. The nightly delivery of handmade fudge was such a thoughtful and luxurious touch that made us feel genuinely pampered.
Having Horizon Club access really elevated our experience. The lounge was a beautiful, serene space to enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea, and a canapé...

The Four Seasons Hotel on George St, Sydney is excellent for location, comfort, luxury and service. We used the hotel spa and facilities before check in, and our room was ready early which was a bonus. The room was beautifully renovated- nice decor, very comfy bed and luxurious soft white linen, and west facing view toward the harbour bridge. The hotel service was very efficient and we received a small treat and message for the birthday being celebrated. Highly recommend FS for a luxury city...

I have to say we have travelled to many places over the years and this is the nicest hotel room we have ever had.
It appeared to have everything you could need and comfort as well. The staff were lovely, shout out to Kevin who assisted me with a payment issue. This Hotel Is attached to the Star, with light rail underneath and is also only a short walk to Pyrmont Bay ferry. I definitely intend to stay here again :)

Great location - near cafes, restaurants, supermarket, fitness studios and the beach.
The staff and service maids were so lovely and kind.
The pillows were too big for my liking, I like a thinner pillow (no major though). There were a few stains on the duvet and it just had a sheet overtop.
The room is a good size, especially having a couch, deck etc. Bathroom is very small but is perfect.
You can borrow towels from reception to take to the beach which is great.
