Top South Head Hotel Reviews

Shangri-La Sydney

Shangri-La Sydney

8/10 Good
"The bedrooms are nice: spacious, good bed/bedding and sizeable bathrooms. The spa and changing rooms are poorly planned and tired. Need maintenance! Inadequate lockers, peeling paint, cramped surroundings. Club Lounge is great with a generous cocktail hour (enough food for dinner, should you feel so inclined) but an underwhelming "afternoon tea" (a scone, basically). Breakfast in the main restaurant was generous but the staff were overwhelmed. Small examples: no cutlery, no proactive coffee offering and then long waits for drinks. A comfortable stay but at this price point there are better experiences in Sydney."
