North Shore Sydney hotel guide. Independent hotel in North Shore Sydney, Sydney

We booked The Wildlife Retreat as a surprise offering on our search for Sydney. 30 mins from the airport by car, 12 minute ferry to the centre of the city. Location is great with superb views over the city. We found out most people only stay a night or two. We stayed 4 and that felt like the minimum to really appreciate all the property has to offer. Good and drink was excellent, although the bar opened late and closed early, getting a coffee after breakfast meant going into the zoo...

A lovely experience and great place to stay in the city

Extremely comfy bed!

Loved this hotel. Fabulous position for exploring. Great food and comfortable beds. Faultless stay

Great hotel, centrally located with large rooms and good food and drink options. Definitely worth staying there. Will go back.

Lovely Room and staff was helpful. Well done

Room was perfect, very clean. Although on the smaller side, still plenty of room and storage space too. Location was great, easy walking distance from most attractions or stations. Breakfast was a smallish selection of hot food, cereals and salad, but was very good quality.

We stayed in Macon for a couple of nights just before an early flight back to the UK. The hotel was perfect for the purpose. Very convenient to get back to Central Station and to the airport. The front desk staff were really helpful in recommending the restaurants around the area and fir the taxi booking. Highly recommended.

This apartment was extremely clean and well appointed. I was on the 9th floor with a balcony(table and 2 chairs).Apart from a large wetroom and bedroom the large lounge had dining area, sitting area and complete kitchen .Equipment included a dishwasher ,microwave and hob with an enclosed laundry area.

Having asked for a high room with a view of the Harbour, my wife and I was very happy indeed with the room allocated to us. The view was fabulous and the room/apartment was spacious, spotlessly clean, well equipped and overall very nice. Location was good ( near the North Sydney train station) with restaurants and bars near by. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Fantastic location. Hotel is the high quality expected from Marriott. Reception staff were very accomodating. Buffet breakfast was good quality.

Have stayed here before. Great location, close to transport links and shops. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. Big comfy bed. The kitchen area is fully stocked with everything you could need. Great stay. Will definitely return.
