I had a lovely stay at Savoy Double Bay Hotel. The location is fantastic-right in the heart of the vibrant Double Bay with easy access to shops and public transport. The staff were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to ensure my comfort. However, the room I had was a bit noisy, and the air conditioning was not functioning ideally, which detracted from the overall experience.

The family room I stayed in was spacious and spotlessly clean, although there were some issues with noise and the air conditioning not working perfectly. The decor was nice but could use a refresh. I did enjoy a good night's rest overall.

My stay at the Savoy Double Bay Hotel was a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, surrounded by great cafes and shops, but I did run into a few issues during my visit that dampened the experience. While my room was clean and had air conditioning, it felt a bit small and dated. Overall, I appreciated the central location and the friendly staff, but some aspects of my stay could definitely be improved.

Rooms

6.0

The room was adequate enough with air conditioning and clean, but a little small. I was disappointed to find the aircon filthy, which made me hesitant to use it. The bed configuration also left a lot to be desired, with two king singles pushed together creating an uncomfortable hump in the middle.

Service

The staff were friendly, and I appreciated the help with a fan when one air conditioner was not working. However, there were times when staff weren't around when I needed assistance, which could be frustrating. The reception seemed a bit overwhelmed during busy times.

Location

The location was one of the best features of my stay - just a short walk from the ferry port and surrounded by lovely eateries and cafes. It felt safe to walk around the area, and it was convenient for exploring the local culture and beautiful nearby spots like Rose Bay.

I opted to skip the hotel's breakfast since there was a fantastic cafe right across the road that served a delicious breakfast. The self-serve options at Savoy were decent but not particularly amazing, especially compared to nearby stellar dining choices.

Housekeeping kept the room clean, but I did encounter some maintenance issues, such as a noisy drip outside my bedroom. The atmosphere of the hotel was cozy, with areas to relax and enjoy views of the street, which was a nice touch.

I had a pleasant stay at the Savoy Double Bay Hotel, largely thanks to its ideal location and friendly staff. The room was clean and quiet, making my time there quite enjoyable.

The staff were kind and professional, going out of their way to ensure my comfort, even extending my stay smoothly when I needed it. However, communication about my room assignment could have been better.

I had a great two-night stay at Savoy Double Bay Hotel. The location is unbeatable and so convenient, just a short walk from the ferry station. My room was a good size, though I noticed some mould in the bathroom and a bit of street noise one night. The continental breakfast was a fantastic deal at $8.50 and had everything I needed to start my day. While the reception staff weren't the most helpful, overall, it was a pleasant experience and I'd love to return next year.

I had a decent stay overall at the Savoy Double Bay Hotel. The location was fantastic, right in the middle of the upscale Double Bay area with plenty of shops and eateries nearby. My room was clean, but I ran into some issues with the air conditioning and the mattress set-up. Still, the staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, which made a real difference in my experience.

Rooms

I stayed in a deluxe room which was clean and had a high ceiling, but it wasn't very spacious. I also had to spend a night in a standard room facing an interior courtyard, which felt quite cramped and had no windows. The mattress setup with two king singles pushed together was uncomfortable due to the noticeable gap.

The staff were definitely a highlight. They were friendly, eager to help, and super knowledgeable about the area. I appreciated their assistance with everything from local recommendations to helping me manage unexpected changes in my stay.

While the hotel had clean facilities, there were areas that felt a bit outdated and could use a refresh. My bathroom had some maintenance issues, and the air conditioning in my first room was not in good shape.
