Concierge "Kirketon was once Sydney's, nay, Australia's coolest hotel... The lobby still exudes a raffish air of coolness, and the moody lighting provides a perfectly discreet atmosphere for the occasional celebrity guest."

"A 40-room, art-inspired boutique hotel that fuses contemporary style with classic Parisian influences." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This boutique hotel is an oasis of style, glamour and comfort in the heart of the vibrant suburb of Darlinghurst."
Time Out "Rooms today come with nice touches such as chocolates and Kevin Murphy toiletries, and the overall design is contemporary minimalist, with rich colours and slick bathrooms with showers." Full review
Star Service "Two blocks north of the edgier, more sophisticated Medusa, on the southern boundary of Kings Cross, this property is more laid-back and better equipped than its sophisticated sibling Diamant Hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "Fashionable place in an excellent location, with beautiful staff, slick service and great restaurants (including Asian ones) and cafés on the doorstep. $149."
Frommer's "Popular among hip, fashionable types, this slightly offbeat boutique hotel in Darlinghurst offers rooms lightly stocked with modernist furniture and custom-made fittings." Full review

Definitely ask for a room away from the main road.

Concierge "Sure, it's a Hilton, and hence a magnet for large groups... But a $150 million renovation in 2005 infused this place with a knockout design."
DK Eyewitness "Alongside super chef Luke Mangan’s glass brasserie and New York designer Tony Chi’s Zeta bar, there are luxurious guest rooms and relaxation suites that are divided into Zen-like zones."
Condé Nast Traveler "The Hilton is primarily tailored to the needs of its executive clientele. Every guest room serves up the muted modernism expected of a 577-room, five-star business hotel." Full review
Time Out "Since its refurbishment three years ago, the Hilton has reinstated itself as one of the city’s premier five-star hotels." Full review
Star Service "The large lobby is dominated by an aluminum sculpture coiling up the center of the atrium to the fourth floor. Service is seamless and efficient." Full review
Fodor's "At this landmark hotel in downtown Sydney you enter a spacious, light-filled lobby displaying a stunning four-story sculpture." Full review
