Room upgrades are nice. The room was clean and well equiped although had a bit of a smell, sadly there isn’t fresh air that comes in the room so the smell is likely a result of that. All staff were friendly except for the short haired female staff member in the restaurant; very rude and made us feel humiliated when she confronted us about leaving breakfast with 3 strawberries which our 2 year old son was eating/going to continue eating, we understand this might be your policy but your way of saying this and your rudeness is completely unacceptable, we enjoyed our stay until our interaction with you.

A My wife and I recently spent two nights getaway in the Novotel Darling Harbour. We were very impressed with the hote and its facilities. The staff in all areas, reception, restaurant, bar, coffee shop and the cleaning staff were extremely welcoming and very friendly. The room was a good size, not a shoebox like the rooms in a couple of other hotels we’ve stayed in, and was really clean. The buffet breakfast was awesome, with a fantastic selection to choose from. The Hotel itself is a stones throw from Darling Harbour with a short walk through the carpark, which is conveniently located under the hotel. I will definitely stay at this hotel again during my next visit to Sydney.
