Central Location in the city

Faint smell of smoke when I arrived in the room

The hotel was good value for money in a central location in the city with walking distance to either Central or Town Hall train stations. Very close if you are headed to China Town as well. The checkin and checkout process with Agoda voucher was very simple and quick. The staff very friendly. I thought the addition of vending machines with alcohol drinks in the lobby was pretty cool. Save going to find a bottle shop if you are keen for a drink and dont want go out hunting.

facilities, price

I think the most valuable thing is that it is close to the railway, within 5 mins can get to the station, and u can find many food courts and shops nearby, the price is reasonable but a little bit high, the service is acceptable and can be better. Another thing i want to mention is that there is no free wireless internet service provided, this is not convenient.

Close to Asian town and close to the Train Station

The room itself is quite small and the maid didn't vacumm the floor once during my stay

This hotel is good for you if you are on a budget. It's located right in the middle of Asian town where there are so many tasty things to eat and is very close to the Central train station which is convenient for you to get around. The room, however, is quite small and has a gloomy look to it. The maid didn't vacumm the floor once during my one week stay at the hotel

The hotel location was really convinent and great and the rooms were newly renovated and clean. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. But the maintance and the management did notseem that great. The table lamp did not work and it was obviously not taken care of for a long time.

Great location, with airport shuttle access, easy walking/transpo to tuorist areas Helpful staff

Maintenance needed in plumbing fixtures

Getting to hotel is easy with choice of airport shuttle or taxi.Quite convenient. For tourists, the location is great for sights and shopping areas. The reception staff were helpful and courteous, gives a good impression from the start, especially to tired travelers. Rooms are small (but for the price...is OK). Basic conveniences are available. Plumbing needs some maintenance though, as faucets are very hard to tighten. Overall, a place to return to if you are after decent, clean, and convenience.

A strategic location around CBD

Customer assistance in the use of the elevator was not briefed to us.

The Metro Sydney Central Hotel is located near the CBD, which is a good spot for access to Sydney's sightseeing attractions and shopping convenience. Though customer service is undeniably hospitable, there seems to be a lack of initiative on the part of the service attendant to ask about petty details regarding hotel facilities use. It needs the air of welcome despite the ability of each staff to provide a warm response when asked.

The hotel is located nearby the China town within the Central Business district. Restaurants, supermarkets and shopping centres are within walking distance.

Beds were small. Improvement needed in respect of cleanliness in the room and water taps of the bathtube.

The price of the accommodation was reasonable. Staff were helpful and polite. I would come again when I vist Sydney next time.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The hotel is situated in the central of the city. Public transport are convenient. Free tourist shuttle (no.555) is just around the corner. Light rail to Darling harbour, Fish market, casino is on the next street.

This hotel is located three minutes walk from Central Station which makes moving around very convenient. Its also very short walk from Haymarket / Chinatown. A lot of banks around the area. Nice restaurants and night spots. There's a Cole supermarket nearby and a 7-Eleven across the road. The hotel is about 15 minutes walk away from the Queen Victoria Building. Hotel has a very strategic location and price is reasonable. They checked us in at 10am. Wow! Will definitely stay there again.

Location. Refurbished room. Friendly, helpful staff.

None

Metro Central is in a great location, close to central station, Chinatown, Paddy's the SEC and the southern shopping area. It is also close to the Goulburn Street parking station. The room was newly refurbished and the staff were friendly and helpful, allowing us to leave our bags in safe storage whilst we did some last minute shopping and hailing down a taxi for us. The rooftop pool is a little small but clean.

Restaurant Tip : Try Chilli Cha Cha - just up the road and great Green Thai Curry.

Openness of reception, convenience, lift security for occupants only.

Salty dish at breakfast of 21 Feb 2009.

This is a brief note to thank all of the service staff, cooking crew, and cleaning staff, and all the others who work hard behind the scenes to make the Hotel function as it does. It was a pleasant stay even though it was a brief one.

Shopping Tip : Take the L90 Bus to Warringah Mall (Palm Beach Bus) near the main bus bay near Town Hall? (I think it was.) They run very frequently. Or even go all the way to Palm Beach and back. Long trip, but it was like a mini excursion the last time I went.

Location.

Air-conditioning.

The hotel is conveniently located on the centralized Pitt Street, within easy walking distance of the shopping districts. There is an approximate 20 minute walk to the Harbour Bridge and Opera House. The room was clean and modern, though the air conditioning was of a low standard. There was also a charge for the use of the safe. Breakfast was a standard continental buffet.
