A historic townhouse that had plenty of room and so close to the main area of the Rocks. Close to everything and there was great entertainment with the Rocks Xmas in July festivities, it’s definitely the time to come to Sydney for a holiday in winter.

Room was nice and cosy enough with a comfortable bed albeit the age of the room and lack of maintenance let the room down and the overall stay.

Parking was expensive but that's Sydney for you and location near the Rocks attracts a higher price.

Biggest letdown of the room was the antiquated HVAC Sydney which didn't Work properly for airflow and made a lot of noise, the exhaust in the bathroom was broken which led to a large amount of mould forming as well as a brownish blood appearance stain on one of the white sheets.

The location and others amenities where good and the overall hotel was quiet.

We stayed 4 nights and booked at the last minute. Checkin was a breeze. All the staff was so nice and friendly. The room was dated and carpet was worn, but the space was huge. We had a king bed and pull out couch for 2 of us and it was still spacious. The outdoor patio was very large and we had a view of the bridge. Neighborhood was quiet . The kitchenette was stocked with utensils and pans. We used only the water kettle for tea - nobody wants to cook when you’re on holiday. The hotel was a short 5 minute walk from the metro. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

HOWEVER do not book through Expedia! I had the worst experience and will never use them again. Book through the property itself!

From this room with a balcony you could see the harbor, harbor bridge and opera house, which was a real plus. A very short walk to a lovely bakery and multiple great dining options. Circular Quay rail and ferry terminal also within walking distance but for as close as it is to the city, the street is on was pretty quiet. Lovely location! Though in an older building, it does have an elevator which is really nice when you have gravy bags!

Location is excellent for Circular Quay, and also close to Barangaroo and CBD.
Short walk from Circular Quay train and light rail.
Very quiet also, and friendly staff.
Our room was very large with a kitchenette and balcony.
On the downside the room was dated and tired, kitchen cabinets starting to come apart, some water stains, and a ceiling vent hanging partly out.
But overall would stay again as good value (for Sydney) and great location.

Perfect location for exploring all the Rocks has to offer as well as being close to public transport.
Room is old, but huge, with a kitchenette, u der counter fridge, hob and microwave.
Ensuite, wardrobe and drawers, balcony with table and chairs with a view of the harbour bridge.
Lift to all levels.

The bed was 2 singles made into a king bed, but it didn’t stay together as heights slightly different and so had a gap between. Still had a good sleep and was very comfy.
Fan in bathroom can’t be turned off so had to close the door to bathroom at night to limit the fan noise.
Balcony door couldn’t be locked.
Ceiling hatch in room warped so wasn’t flush with ceiling at all, but didn’t fall open.

Had everything we wanted for our overnight stay and we were quite happy with our stay there.
Lifts access, pool, lounge area next to pool area.
Tea and coffee available in lounge.

The room was not as expected. Mismatched tiles in the bathroom, very old and dated room. Looks to be all original and nothing like advertised on their website. Paid extra for a room with a view of the bridge and opera house (at the time of booking was not made aware there were ships docked every day so opera house would only be visible some time after 5pm each day). Was not made to feel welcome at check-in, only the basics were explained. Check out was very similar, was not asked about our stay at all.

Loved my stay here at the Rendezvous Sydney! The staff were so friendly and helpful through my check in, during my stay, and my check out. Honestly the room felt way larger than I originally anticipated and was spotlessly clean with all amenities functional and in good condition. The beds were so soft and the room's AC was a lifesaver from the heat outside. Due to the location of the hotel, there is also very little to no sound from any cars or the bustle of the city which lead to a good night's sleep. Located a stone's throw from the lovely restaurants and attractions of The Rocks, it's ideal for a nice Sydney trip. I will definitely be staying again to check out the rest of the amazing facilities tge Rendezvous has to offer!

Overall the staff was fine & we were given a welcome bottle of sparkling wine. The hotel is located very close to restaurants, pubs, stores, the Harbour & public transportation in The Rocks historic area. We loved the large terrace with our 1 bedroom suite on the 6th floor; it had a lovely view of the Opera House & the Bridge (or a cruise ship docked at Circular Quay). The unfortunate incident that sort of created a less than fully positive stay was finding a huge cockroach at the closet door as I was going to bed at 10:30 pm on our last night. Totally freaked me out! My husband was trying to take care it then spotted another one under the bed. I immediately called the front desk & the night manager quickly moved us to another room. I was very grateful for her quick response & resolution because there was no way I could sleep in that bed. Overall a good experience with just that very unfortunate incident

This hotel was a sad completion of my 24 day trip. Bed was good, room decent but the air conditioner did not work! It was hot in Sydney those 2 nights and we could not sleep at all! The HVAC clanked all night and made it torturous nights. Please renovate this a/c or take the rendezvous name off of it! Hotel did offer a small refund of 80 bucks. But wish to get compensation from hotels.com
Great location otherwise!

When we arrived at 8:30 am we did the pre check in at the reception. Very friendly man at the reception. We were told our room was not ready. Checkin was at 3:00 pm but we were informed if our room was ready early, they would contact us. We had been on an overnight flight, so we would have appreciated that. We went out to look around the city, and returned to the hotel at 2:20 pm, to be informed by a young lady that our room was still not ready. We waited in the lobby area, and at 3:05 pm we were still waiting. We went up to the reception at that time, and said we were ready to check in, and she handed us our keys. They could not have let us know at 3:00 pm that we could check in? Why let us just sit and wait? Not very good customer service for the rate we paid for. The room was dated, the carpet needed vacuuming, sparse furniture in the room. The view was lovely. We felt all we paid for was the view. We stored our luggage while we were out. Area was not secure with workmen also having access to this luggage room. Would have been nice to see our luggage in a locked secure area. Pool area was messy with work going on at the hotel, so to use the pool did not seem to be an option. Hot tub was drained empty. No restaurant available in the hotel. We checked out 17 hours later to catch a flight. The Rocks area was beautiful. Would stay somewhere else next time.
