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

We decided to prolong our holiday after our cruise by spending 2 days and a night in Sydney. Not knowing Sydney at all, after much searching online we found this hotel at $169 for the night including breakfast.

Arrived early morning and had booked 3 room as I was... more

We have had an excellent stay at the Novotel Rockford. It is located at the end of Darling Harbour, simply walk out the main door, turn right, and you are then at the end of Darling Harbour area right next to the Chinese Gardens. Although there are major streets around the hotel there are no streets you have to cross... more

We stayed at the Rockford for a long weekend in May, 07 due to it's proximity to a friends wedding. We found the Darling Harbour location great, with it being an easy walk to the George Street cinema precinct and Chinatown eateries. Check-in was ok - interestingly they requested full payment up front prior to seeing the room. This turned... more
