Staff cannot direct you to where the shuttle picks you up. For reference you make a left when you exit terminal 2 and follow signs for the shuttle, which is called the Sydney super shuttle and costs $12 AUD per person so you’re probably better off just taking an uber or walking. The hotel is fairly standard gross airport hotel, no fitted sheet on the mattress and instead a weird top sheet that doesn’t fully cover, etc.

A great stay before a flight, walkable to both airport and train station. Loved the option of complimentary take away breakfast packs as we had an early flight. Would be helpful if the included cutlery packs had a spoon for the cereal though.

A moment of relaxation before a big flight

Ideal for a night of relaxation before a big international flight. I loved that toothbrushes and paste were at reception (we forgot ours) and complimentary and that breakfast was included (loved the roast zucchini - nice change).
