Review: Holiday Inn Potts Point – Sydney, Australia

Posted on 03 October 2011 by Admin

We stayed here in January 2011.

At the front desk I was greeted by a young lady. I gave her my voucher, then she noted happily that everything is already paid. However, the deposit for a “superior room” is about  $ 75 AUD for optional expenses. (Note to the uninformed: the amount is not debited, but only blocked, which is also common for car rentals)

My “superior room” was on the 8th floor towards the entrance of the “entertainment district”. This means that even on the 8th floor it ‘s not completely quiet when the room is oriented toward “Kings Cross”. The room was equipped with queensize bed and decent selection of pillows. There’s also a flat screen TV and a small desk. The bathroom was well lit. It is equipped with a bath tub/shower combination with a curtain.

Internet is available through WiFi. However, it costs up to $ 29 AUD per day (one time setup fee and plus by used bandwidth).

As I told you before, the hotel is located directly at the entrance of Kings Cross. Which means, there are plenty opportunities to socialize at night clubs and bars. A subway and a small grocery store is also near by.
