Outstanding Stay at The Darling!

Our room was absolutely stunning — a beautifully designed space with a gorgeous view. We loved the thoughtful layout, especially the separate bathroom areas, the walk-in robe, the dedicated lounge and dining space, and the full bench with a kitchen sink. Although we had only booked a standard king room, it felt far more luxurious than expected. The large spa bath was an unexpected highlight, and the shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel were exceptional quality. I think I’ve found my new favourite brand. It was a genuine surprise to see such a high-end range of amenities provided. Also, the huge bath towels were a luxurious inclusion. Another welcome detail was the room’s location. Being set well away from the lift meant the hallway stayed quiet throughout our stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the automatic block out curtains worked perfectly. Every staff member we encountered was outstanding — friendly, helpful, informative, and genuinely welcoming. While some might say that’s simply part of the job, it’s not always something we’ve consistently experienced at check in elsewhere. We received a text letting us know our room was ready well before the official check in time, which was especially appreciated as my husband had only been discharged from hospital the day before and the drive to Sydney had exhausted him. We hadn’t mentioned this to the hotel, yet they still made the room available early, and that small gesture made a big difference to us both. When we arrived, staff greeted us warmly, unloaded our luggage, and stored it while we went out for lunch. By the time we checked in, everything had already been delivered to our room, and our loose items — including coats — had been neatly hung up for us. After this experience, we’ll be choosing this property over The Star from now on. The inclusions are superior, the rooms are far more impressive, and the staff are exceptionally friendly and accommodating.
