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

"The Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney is a luxury, executive hotel in Sydney's Central Business District (CBD) that caters primarily to business travelers." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"This triangular sandstone building, shaped like a diminutive Flatiron, was once the home of Australia’s oldest existing newspaper - but the only thing hot off the press today is this five-star hotel’s $12m face lift." Full review
Lonely Planet "The rooms are spacious, if a little generic, with marble bathrooms and all the typical big-hotel comforts." Full review
Time Out "This CBD hotel is now home to Bentley which is a reason to go there in itself, a full health club/spa, conference facilities and 362 guest rooms, all in the heart of the city." Full review
