Nice location. But the bathroom tub was slippery, so I had to be careful not to fall. Internet was slow.

We requested a one hour late check out after a 3 night $1000 stay and were told it would be $30 per hour. The staff would not even consider that it might be a good idea to allow a complementary late checkout to drive repeat business - they just dismissed the request. I’ve stayed here frequently for work but won’t again - if i was a manager I’d be focused on retention rather than a $30 late checkout fee. Very short sighted.
The pool area was occupied all afternoon by a couple who were smoking and didn’t seem to care that it was a non smoking hotel or that kids wanted a swim - nobody moved them on. The sauna was non operational. The bathroom had mould. Overall not great value for the price. Good central location though.
It was a pleasurable stay at Vibe Sydney - spacious comfortable room, quiet in a corner room on level 2. Only note for improvement is insufficient staff on the service desk, only one person, even at peak times.

Great location. Staff very helpful. Lovely breakfast.
Property was very clean and chic. Rooms were clean and new, with comfortable furnishings. One minor issue was the toilet was installed close to the wall and we kept hitting the toilet paper holder with our legs.
The hotel breakfast is very good.
Although the hotel is not in the center of CBD, it is very walkable and within close proximity to trains and public transport.
Loved the closeness of the Vibe Sydney to the Capital Theatre for our one night in the city for a show experience. The convenience of the carpark at cheap city rates across the road was perfect for our two country travellers. Bed comfortable, shower great pressure, you just need to like a loud A/C in the room when on. Having the restaurant for dinner and breakfast off the lobby assisted us with a quick turn around of our time. Great stay. Would return.

Good option for clean, safe and convenient central Sydney accommodation.
Good breakfast.
Didn’t like i had to check in again when i had made two back to back bookings with Expedia as i missed booking the last night on my first booking I told them in an email and told them when i checked in but i came back hot and tired one day and had to wait in a line to get a new key and sign again. And the flush on the toilet was hard for older hands to keep pushing it until it fully flushed.

What was once a great value for money option has now turned into nothing but a budget hotel with fancy badging.
I am a regular traveller to Sydney and have for many years chosen this hotel, however over my last 3 stays over the last 4 months the quality of this hotel has dwindled.
This has included but is not limited to:
- items being stolen from our room.
- having to go back to reception because the room I was given had the incorrect beds
- requests for a king bed to be split being unfulfilled.
- a flooding bathroom
- excess noise/pipes
- room keys no longer working, and having to go back to reception to get them reprogrammed several times
- poor customer service at check in and being spoken to in a demeaning manner.
Many of these issues have fallen on the deaf ears of receptionists, some of whom walk around and treat guests with little care or respect to their job.
I once recommended this hotel, however its quality of both product and service has continued to decline, meaning I can no longer recommend it.
Perfect location in the CBD. Walking distance from everything!

Great Location, but…
The Vibe hotel is in an amazing part of the city - so you definitely pay for the location. I preface this with the belief that the rooms are cleaned well. But, they are a bit dim and lack updating so it feels unclean. The window panes have giant, black cobwebs between them, the paint is chipped and cracked in the bathroom, and the carpet is questionable - again, likely clean but doesn’t necessarily appear so. The rooms are very small.
The beds are generally good. However, my side had this large bowled out portion on the side - visible - which made sleeping very uncomfortable. I told the front desk when we left (as there was another bed that I switched to half way through our stay). I am not sure how it would go unreported, and if it was reported (it could not be missed-truly), why it was ignored at my expense. That’s the kind of care that I think is overlooked at this hotel.
I would likely pay more for another Hotel on our next trip but this one worked. We didn’t spend much time in the room over our four days and appreciated the proximity of the metro, town square, darling harbour, etc…
The location was convenient enough. Not a terrible walk to darling harbor and only two train stops to Sydney harbor. The bathroom was a strange layout with mismatched tiles and the shower is not tall guy certified, but it worked for us. The staff was nice and helpful. Not that they’re obligated to but they were the only hotel (out of four on this trip) that didn’t give us the ability to check in early which would have been nice as tired international travelers. They did store our luggage though
