Adina Apartment Hotel Darling Harbour

Best thing was the location. Just less than a minute walk and you’ll be at the harbour, between Barangaroo and Darling Harbour. The hotel was very very clean, 10/10 for that, however some amenities were not functioning properly - the bathroom sink would not drain the water properly and we had to use the kitchen sink. But overall we had fun and location was perfect!

I consider this halfway between a motel and a hotel, fantastic location, close to everything, you wouldn't need a rental car as you can uber or walk everywhere. Close to ferry's, restaurants, darling harbour, malls etc... One bedroom apartment was spacious. Great to have a washer and dryer as we were able to pack less clothing. Only fault would be could be abit cleaner. Service and breakfasts included were great. Would happily stay again. Also has free WiFi.

Excellent location, plenty within walking distance. Able to book reservations across the street by the harbor for dinner or lunch. Use the walk-up at family counter daily for breakfast and delicious smoothies with our coffees. Restaurant onsite was never open during our week stay. Very clean amenities and easy to access from pool and gym. Great water pressure and temperature in shower. Laundry access was crucial for us. Loved the security lock down as it felt very safe throughout. ||Surprised that they gave us a gift of champagne for holidays. What an amazing experience!||Kinda a difficult setup if you have your own car, but so much nearby and public transit then a good idea to leave it behind anyway.

Room and hallways smelt like urine. Beds were uncomfortable and there was mould in the bathroom and on the walls. I could barely get in to the shower as it was so narrow. The best thing about the place is the location, right on darling harbour. Way overpriced for what we got, checked out in the morning no one was there and no direction as to what to do with our cards. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

When I checked in, I wasn't given a welcome note/wifi password or anything. I assumed it might have been in the room. Later found out it wasn't. Got up to my floor and a stale smell of urine wofted through the whole floor including the room. Room was dusty, marks all over the walls and carpet. Tiny shower with mould forming in the grout. Beds were uncomfortable, very springy and pillows were too soft. Staff were pretty non existent. We went to check out and were standing in reception for 15 minutes looking around for staff to check us out or a box to put our swipes. Nothing. We had to leave our swipes on the desk and send them an email to check us out. Location was right on the board walk of Darling Harbour which was the only good thing, even though the standard rooms don't have a view. We wouldn't return or recommend this hotel.

Pros|Darling Harbour. |Pillows fabulous.|Great view from the balcony |Cons|Check in is at 3pm . Not a good check in time. Most hotels 2pm at the latest. There was only one staff member and people HAD TO LINE UP LIKE McDONALDS. The line and l do mean a line had 20 people or more. Humiliation. People jostling for position in a bedraggled line.|Elevators were positively scary. Shuddered and didn’t always work open and clsing cards not working also on day 2 of our stay the cards didn't work at all and from the staffs reaction this is on purpose or a continuing problem????|My son with a card was not allowed to use his and was made to wait while we were called in room to verify his relationship to us?????|I am so sad to say cleanliness is my main priority in rating accommodation and this was not to anyone's standards; found hairs in shower on the wall long hairs. A discarded Coles hairband package in sofa.i rang this hotel 3 times to ask about the third bed as my son is 6 feet 10 inches and l SPECIFICALLY asked if the single bed was a roll away. "NO " but yes it is and is in the middle of the lounge. No privacy short horrible fold away bed|Do not say it's a permanent bed if is not. Omg l enquired 3 times.!!!!!!!|The shower ventilation shaft in shower was clogged with grey dust and crust and was what l can only imagine years of grime. As the shower head is over the bath and as a normal sized female l was looking directly at it within inches of my face. Very unhygienic. |Stripped linen as a courtesy to cleaning staff found dark black stain on a pillow. Room 88.|Let's talk parking. Vehicle registration recognition does not work. Not only for our vehicle but for many observed vehicles.|Also be aware of a 1.00 charge after checkout. Not a big amount but why and if this is a charge to everyone every day . You do the maths? Still to clarify why this was charged?? Waiting.|This is the bare basics . You get what you pay for but at their prices l expect alot more.

If you need to be close to Darling Harbour or the City for work, the location is good and the price reasonable. The staff I met are warm friendly. The rooms are okay, but cleanliness is a vague concept. I have wiped carpets of dust off various surfaces, and I am not sure when the carpets were professionally cleaned, but it is a while if the state of it is anything to go by. Rooms are serviced every 3 days, so don't expect clean towels. If you get a studio room there is no laundry facilities in your room or at the hotel. (Try the Harbourside Laundromat across the Pyrmont Bridge in Harwood Street.) Final thing to note the hours of the St Mark's Road Co Cafe can be changed without reference or notice.

Absolutely terrible experience at Adina Apartments. We booked for two nights but left after just one — the room was disgusting. Dust poured out of cupboards, the entire place was filthy, smelled mouldy, and the air conditioner rattled so loudly all night we couldn’t sleep. The beds were old, sunken in like canoes, and worst of all — I woke up covered in bed bug bites, which I showed to the receptionist and the manager. The apartment was run-down and completely unfit for guests. This was meant to be a special anniversary getaway after a 2.5-hour drive, and instead we were met with dirt, noise, and discomfort. To top it off, we booked parking through Adina and were charged an extra $30 for so-called “overstay” — despite leaving the next day within 24 hours. Their parking times don’t even match the room check-in/out times. It feels like a sneaky way to overcharge guests. Check in time 3pm but parking 3.30pm check in time I do not recommend staying here. Extremely disappointing on every level.

We stayed here recently. Very dingy, run down and beat up. We stayed in a two bedroom unit. Carpet was very dirty and black in some areas like it had a build up of dust. Cabinets were stained and peeling. Exhaust vent over shower caked with dust and dirt. Bed was clean and comfortable but there was no attention to detail with cleanliness and the carpet was just a huge turn off. Fabulous location and awesome Modina Cafe but would not stay there again. Just gross...Unit 78-79. Awful...

This hotel is pretty great. The rooms are large and we had a great balcony facing the harbour. The kitchenette includes a fridge and microwave. The bathroom has a nice deep tub, but I could see how it would be hard to get out of for some people. The location is excellent. Literally right on Darling Harbour. It was perfect for going to the WildLife Zoo and for our whale watching cruise. It was easy to walk across the King St. bridge and be right downtown. It was not really convenient for public transportation, but Uber kind of made it obsolete. The staff were really wonderful and I had emailed them in advance about our stay and they upgraded our rooms and left a wonderful card for my mom. Little things, like the fact that we left our luggage because we had arrived early and it was sent correctly to both our rooms without labels. The minus one star is for the wifi. 100 MB a day is literally enough to check and respond to like 10 emails. It seems unreasonable in this day and age (2016) to not provide free wifi.

Finally! A hotel apartment with washer/dryer and kitchenette. After travelling for a month from one country to another, it's nice to stay in a place where you can wash your own clothes. We didn't use the kitchen since it is right at Darling Harbour. So many restaurants and choice of food. Just walking distance to Chinatown, downtown etc. Excellent location! It is clean and enjoyable! I highly recommend this hotel.

First time in Sydney Australia and Adina Apt Hotel is in Great location! Walking distance to restaurant/bar, shopping, entertainment, transportation. Room we stayed at needs updating but we received excellent costumer service from Valentina. She's very informative and very helpful esp in getting us a better room, good advice on places to visit, places to eat. Highly recommended this place for 1st time travelers.

This hotel is nice and the location was perfect. Our room was nicely furnished with all the conveniences of a small apartment. There was a kitchen with a refridge, stove top, microwave oven, sink, dishes and utensils. For laundering your clothes, a washer and dryer was also in the apartment.. As for the location, it is just a stones throw from Darling Harbor. In fact we could see the Maritime Museum from our balcony. Many stores and restaurants are within a very short walking distance. As for transportation to other locations within the city, the hotel is located close to a ferry pickup, so you are not limited to taking a taxi everywhere. We didn't do our homework before visiting Sydney. Therefore, we only found out about the My Multi Pass on our last day. This pass will allow you to get around town by bus, light rail, and ferry for a very reasonable price. My only complaint is that our maid was a bit sloppy in her cleaning habbits. Several things were not up to par. After mentioning this to the front desk, things were taken care of right away. When we come back to Sydney again, we would definitely consider staying here again.

Mixture of excellent customer service, cleanliness and location, it was a pleasant stay of 14 days. Can't recommend enough
