Why it's worth checking out
The Crowne Plaza Sydney Darling Harbour sits on Bathurst Street in the Sydney CBD, in a handy location between the city centre and Darling Harbour. A full-service hotel, it offers a comfortable, central base for exploring Sydney — within easy reach of Darling Harbour, the QVB, the shopping and dining of the CBD and the city's attractions.
The appeal is that combination of comfortable, well-appointed accommodation and a convenient central location, ideal for both business and leisure travellers wanting to be close to the action. With Darling Harbour, the convention precinct and the city all close by, it's a practical and well-placed choice for a Sydney stay.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 1,500 reviews, it's clearly delivering for its guests. Room types, rates, dining, facilities and availability vary with the season and demand, and a well-located city hotel books out around major events and peak periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly ahead — particularly if you're travelling at a busy time or want a specific room type for your stay.
