Super clean, spacious and stylish room for 2 international travellers with large suitcases. Room has a comfortable large bed and huge shower. The food we ordered by room service was very good. If you walk 2 blocks to George street there’s a train that takes you to all the tourist spots so the location is very good. The gym was clean and good too, we didn’t use the pool but it looked nice if a little small. The restaurant downstairs was great (Henry’s I think).
Not a fan of doors to bathrooms as not super private. Lots of hotels do this for space economy though.

Stylish vibe! A comfortable & generous size room with modern interior, and well designed layout. It actually felt like a treat to stay there! Large dome coffee pods were great! Central location: short walk up to cafes in Surry Hills, close to Darling Harbour & Wynard restaurants, central station, museum station. I would absolutely recommend it!
Cleaners aren't quite scrubbing clean the shower walls well.... a little scum build up down low (I see this at most hotels). The pillows weren't great.... was there a pillow menu?

Walking down Castlereagh St, you could almost be forgiven for missing this fabulous new hotel. Quietly tucked behind a cafe, The Porter House Hotel is perfect for anyone busy around the city while wanting something off the main shopping streets. 1 minute walk from Hyde Park for a nature stroll and 2-3 minutes walk from any and all connecting public transport. Standard King Rooms felt light and airy (not cramped) with thoughtful furniture such as luggage seat and small desk/table and chair for working or eating.
Only thing would be that the standard rooms would be snug for a couple/2 people with lots of luggage and small bathroom nook. Smart access to AC/room make-up/lighting options took a bit to figure out but great feature and was easy to use once located.

My best stay so far! I really impressed from the start: hotel - brand new, staff - super friendly, location - perfect (direct metro line from airport and bus to BONDI beach), nice restaurant at ground floor with decent coffee, rooms - cozy and very digital, you even can watch Netflix, pillows are very comfortable and bed sheets without any smells (usually I have very bad sleep in hotels, but this time it was not a problem), shower - can be made super hot and strong pressure. In addition to Nespresso coffee machine staff put small milk cream, cute!
At my last day staff was rush in cleaning as I left room a bit late. They forgot to put 2 additional towels and refill water.

The hotel room was clean and spacious. It was in a great location, within walking distance to a lot of restaurants. The hotel wasn't on a busy street, so there wasn't a lot of traffic noise. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was clean.
I stayed on a low level of the hotel and my window was facing an office building and train station entrance. I'm not sure if the people in the other building or on the street could see through the window, so I always had the blinds closed to maintain privacy. I also faced difficulty with sorting out my invoice at the end of my stay. I was supposed to receive a discount for not receiving daily housekeeping (as part of an environmental initiative), however this discount was not accurately applied and despite having contacted the hotel multiple times after my stay to get it fixed, no refund was provided.

I enjoyed the different types of pillows that were offered, the Nespresso pod machine & how the iPad could be used to control everything.
Well Booking.com, for some reason, my room was not booked once I arrived. The hotel did not receive any notification from you about me coming, luckily they had a room available. I think it would be a good idea for the hotel to keep scales, so that tourists can weigh their bags before leaving for the airport. Something silly, but I had a pair of running socks blow onto the balcony that is inaccessible due to the window not opening entirely. I received a letter from reception saying that there would be window cleaners outside during the week. So I asked 3 times at reception, if the cleaners could retrieve my socks for me. I did not hear anything back from the 3 different receptionists I spoke to. It is silly, but I really loved those socks!

To be honest, I found the reception a bit weird. I'm all for security but it was the manner of the staff that was just a tiny bit strange. She made us feel slightly uncomfortable the way she was asking for our identification, she may have been new? We were on our last night of 3 weeks away with quite a few check in's & I whispered to my husband, what's going on, I feel like we have landed in a foreign country & they are suss on us! As I said, all for security but they may want to show their staff how to be security conscious but warm & friendly at the same time.

The location of the hotel is amazing! Walking distance to the shops and restaurants. The swimming pool is a must to do whilst waiting for the sunset. The bed is comfortable. The room is nice, clean and modern.
The customer service is hit and miss unfortunately. The person I have spoken with when I checked in and out were lovely but the room service (phone) wasn't. I wish the hotel offer normal water, the complimentary water they offer taste weird so I have to go to the nearest Woolies to get my own water. The internet they offer is not reliable since I keep disconnecting on my device so it is better to use your own internet.

room was spacious, well appointed, modern and good use of tech. Reception was friendly and helpful. Used an umbrella during the stay which was useful. $20 Environment credit a good inititive. Did not need room servicing for a weekend stay.
Room could do with more hooks in the entrance for coats (was raining) and in the bathroom. Found the dining onsite a bit overpriced and the change ofmenu at 11am to be problematic. On a Saturday looking for late breakfast a la carte and nothing was appealing on the lunch/evening menu to meet that need so went elsewhere. Spice bar advertised some form of happy hour, but the menu didnt present that. had a $25 cocktail that had an additional weekend service charge added on. Dissapointing. Surcharges generally, booked online but then paid further surcharges on top of online price. Think that is deceitful

The location was great and the building has been beautifully transformed. The location was close to everything and the location was quiet. We stayed in a twin wheel chair accessible room.
There was a lack of storage and vanity space in the very large bathroom to place belongings like hair dyer, makeup and personal care products. For such a large space it only had a single wall hung basin with no vanity or storage to place items.
