Concierge "You can't get much closer to the waterfront than this converted factory: It sits smack-dab on a wharf, with boats tucking into their docks outside the windows."
DK Eyewitness "This modern boutique hotel is one of the coolest in Sydney. Sip fabulous cocktails at the awardwinning Water Bar and enjoy the luxury robes and Aveda bath products."
Rough Guide "This luxury establishment has bags of smooth contemporary style and is located on the water’s edge in a redeveloped wharf lined with fashionable cafés and restaurants."
Fodor's "Guests love the authentic structures of the former wharf (pulleys, giant trusses, and brontosaurus-like machinery), its location... and the chance to be on the harbor but in a quieter location." Full review
Afar Magazine "Carefully constructed around support beams and pipes from a 100-year-old wheat and wool wharf, Blue Sydney offers a beautiful mix of old and new that juts out into the Woolloomooloo harbor." Full review
Jetsetter "Stylish waterfront hotel in the heart of trendy Woolloomooloo Wharf." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The clean and spacious rooms offer a quiet oasis for couples looking to unwind as they gaze upon some of the best views in the city." Full review
Star Service "Service is truly astounding; however, the accommodations, while certainly well-equipped, are not as lavish as the rates would indicate, but views do a good job of compensating." Full review
