Recently my sister and I spent 4 days at the Oaks Goldsborough. What a wonderful experience! From the historic wooden beam structure integrated into a modern architectural setting; to the beautifully clean spa, sauna, gym and lap pool; to the easy-to-use self-catering appliances and comfortable soft furnishings - Oaks Goldsborough rated 5/5 for us. Service was professional and friendly but... More

This property was booked for its proximity to the Convention Centre and that if offered apartments. It was like a cross between a prison and a dogs home. A weird mish mash of permanent residents and guests. Rooms seemed to be only partly serviced - e.g. bins emptied and beds made but bathroom not cleaned, etc. My washing machine was... More

Was booked in here by my work due to it being in the area I required! Once I found out where I'd been booked, I checked out the reviews, to say I was instantly hesitant was an understatement! On first impression once you enter the building proper; I could understand the jail/barracks comments. However once entering the room I found... More

I booked this hotel for myself and 9 other guests so my head was on the chopping block but I escaped unharmed. I thought the staff were pleasant and our 2 bedroom apartment was very acceptable. It was clean, split level and i was happy to sleep on the unexpectedly comfortable roll away bed for the 1st night. I booked... More

Location was fantastic, a short walk to the entertainment precinct and the PowerHouse Museum. I was ready for a dissapointment upon seeing the corridor as they reminded me of a prison with all the criss crossing walkways however I stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment which was clean, comfortable and modern. The view of Darling Harbour was amazing considering the... More

The apartment was clean but fittings were dated and the lounge was grubby - disappointing for the cost. Location was reasonable with good access to Darling Harbour however parking as an issue for interstate travellers. Staff were pleasant and helpful however I won't stay again.
