We stayed in the Novotel Rockford Darling Harbour hotel for 2 nights in March '08 in a Superior King room. We arrived early morning on Good Friday at the hotel, knowing that check-in was only at 11am. But the hotel had a vacant room at 8am & they allowed us to check into the room, without any extra charge. The... more

We stayed here in Jan 08 for a few nights and were pleasantly surprised. The rooms were decently priced (booked direct through the hotel website). Our room was larger than average (although not massive) and the bathroom clean and modern. Breakfast was included in the price, and was quite decent. The bed was very comfortable. The receptionists were very helpful.... more

My husband and I stayed here with friends Xmas 2005. The location is absolutelyt fabulous - it's a short and lovely walk to Darling Harbour. The hotel was usual Novotel standards - nothing special, but clean, tidy and comfortable. more

I liked the Rockford for two major reasons. The staff was great and helped out even doing a rush job on cleaning a stained shirt. The second reason was being on the far end of the park from the harbor, very quiet and a nice walk to the harbor. The Pumphouse bar is connected to the end of the hotel,... more

I stayed here for a rewards night I was attending at the Star City Casino and loved the hotel. The only downside was the noise from the nightclub downstairs. I've stayed in a few places at Darling Harbour/Haymarket but this hotel was the nicest, the bed was huge, nice views over Chinatown Gardens, close to everything. You can walk to... more

My husband and I regularly stay in Sydney on weekends away, usually prefering to stay in five star hotels on the waterfront. However, given that this time we were going to spend more time out of the hotel than in it, we decided to try the Novotel Rockford. We were not disappointed. Although only what I would class a basic... more

The name may have changed but the quality of the stay remained . An excellent location being walking distance to Darling Harbour shopping and attractions, Chinatown and the market. Also by the convention centre and a red bus stop. The rooms are clean, quiet and the service is great. Breakfast is a little on the pricy side, but there are... more

Stayed from 24 - 28 Sep. We chose it because it was conveniently located near the convention hall and Chinatown. Was staying on level 4 .The room wasn't as new as my colleague who was staying on level 7. As a business traveller, I am expecting the wireless internet to work well. To my disappointment, internet connectivity was very slow.... more
