The building itself is quite stunning, and has many bars and restaurants nearby. The rooms were good and the hotel staff including the concierge were all very helpful and informative. The only let down was the breakfast - slow, incorrect, cold... which was dissapointing given the rest of the experience.
We decided to book for a Friday night after wanting to check out the hotel for a long time. The reservations consultant was extremely helpful, we were offered an upgrade to a loft suite and a couple cocktails to sweeten the deal.
Check in was seamless, quick and easy and no wait at all. We were escorted to our suite...

This hotel was a fabulous renovation from the old wharf so has a really different character and a great location. On this occasion I had an interesting room at the front and although near the road it wasn't noisy. Great comfort levels, nice toiletries and food much above average for room service while not being more than Im used to...

We stayed for a weekend in a marina view loft room. The staff were warm and helpful, it was a beautiful room with a water view from the windows and city view from the skylight - amazing to wake up to (we kept the blind open). The pillows were the best I've ever slept on. Although there was music from...

Do NOT stay here if you want rest, peace and quiet. The people who run this place seem to think that having loud music in the bar with a few paying drinkers is more important than the enjoyment of a rest in a quiet hotel for the "guests" paying 2 or 3 hundred dollars a night. Ridiculous place. As I...

Dear Guests,
Thank you for your feedback, it is much appreciated.
With due respect we are somewhat confused by your comments. I note that you stayed during May and on a Sunday night. With the exception of Mothers Day 13th May when we had a live singer singing to back-up music for our Mothers Day High Tea, which promptly finished...

Stayed there for a night on 11th May. Typical Taj hospitality which I love. I have been to many Taj hotels in India so was excited to stay there. Staff is very nice and importantly very pleasant. Rooms are big but needs renovation. It did not give the feel of luxuary which I associate with Taj Hotels. Food was awesome....

In all my years of travelling, and there have been many years and many trips, I have never had anything stolen. It was a real surprise to have a personal item taken from our room. The hotel said that they had interviewed the staff and no-one admitted to taking it. What a surprise! Given the number of times we have...

Stayed for 2 nights with my better half at the end of a 2 week trip down the East Coast. The luxury, detail and style was most welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed the hotel. Good location with cabs easy to find. Direct walk into the Botanic Gardens. Nice little gym. Lovely bar, perhaps slightly quiet but a nice place for...

The hotel is build into the complex of a former wharf, taking half of the building, the other half is taken by luxury appartments.
Some parts of the former wharf architecture are integrated into the rooms design (wooden beams, steel constructions), We had a "Superior Wharf Room" looking eastward, giving enough room for two adults. The room was located near...

Dear Guests,
Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at BLUE Sydney, A Taj Hotel.
We note the comments regarding the Eastward Superior rooms which can overlook the delivery driveway to the foreshore and apologize for any noise you may have experienced. We would love to have you stay at BLUE again and would be very happy...

BLUE is located in a converted shipping wharf and maintains a lot of the original features both internally and externally. As other reviewers have noted, this makes it a unique setting for a hotel. The wharf includes a few excellent restaurants such as Otto (Italian), Manta (seafood) and Kinglseys (steak). But if you feel like a short excursion, BLUE is...
