Novotel Sydney on Darling Harbour

Novotel Sydney on Darling Harbour

8/10 Good
"Close to either the light rail, ferry or bus the only down side is much of the view now obscured from the windows facing the harbour side (north west, towards central). Would recommend as a handy location to Darling Harbour if walking is no issue. Much closer to the old Star Casino. Excellent staff and enjoyable place to have a quiet afternoon at the Ternary Bar."
