Wanted to post in this thread (Mods please move if you fancy) but it is closed:
Sydney Four Points Sheraton at Central Park in 2018
Stayed on opening night Friday 10th of August.
Platinum received 2 drink certificates; upgrade to the Studio Suite (they actually have about 40 of these and apparently 2 'mega-suites' which I don't see as bookable). The upgrade did not appear in my account so not sure if they did it when I arrived? I booked the inclusive of breakfast rate promotion so didn't have to deal with using Platinum Amenity for Breakfast.
Typical Four Points (though as brand new everything squeaky clean) ..lots of grey and taupe. The food in the restaurant was very high quality (naturally they were a little slow and scattered) and has a salad bar (quite interesting). What surprising is it is very upmarket fare and thus quite $$$.
The Studio Suite has 2 sinks; Delonghi capsule machine and lots of wardrobe space and mirrors and a long work space.
As with all new properties - the service was somewhat disjointed but everyone is cheery. They have a bunch of Sheraton on the Park employees helping out in dining.
One thing to note is I was on 16th floor and this faces George street so it 'feels' like you are in a big city with sirens at night.
Breakfast was decent though the single coffee machine was heavily stressed out. The nice thing is the chef is right there and makes an omellete or eggs to order right in the proper kitchen in front of you (it is open concept).
Malt - the bar - is a tiny little area with a long table ...they do have a nice outdoor seating area for bar that is created by sliding open the doors.
Pros
Location!
Brand spanking new!
High quality food (though many food choices around you!) and breakfast quite good for 4 points. Good beer choices.
Everyone is cheery and this represents a great option to the very tired Mercure just down the road and will be 25% cheaper than Old Claire next door which is part of Design/Marriott brand
Cons
Possibly noise from George Street
It is a 4 points after all so bare bones and no pool which always drives me crazy in warm cities in Australia (didn't check out gym ..i forgot!)
I fear there will be a lot of group tours going through here which alters the ambience and the clientele.
The toiletries are 'Aktiv' a 4 points exclusive ..reminds of Pine Sol
