"We had an excellent stay at the View Sydney Hotel! I would especially like to recognize the staff who were working on October 8, 2026. The two ladies who assisted us were incredibly accommodating, friendly, and helpful. I wish I had gotten their names so I could thank them personally. We arrived early and needed to leave our belongings before check-in, and they were very quick and helpful in assisting us with our luggage. We also greatly appreciated the kindness of the lady working on the morning of October 10, who generously allowed us an extra hour for late check-out. These thoughtful gestures made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Our room had an amazing view of Sydney Harbour and the Harbour Bridge, which made our stay even more memorable. The location, service, and beautiful views made this hotel a great choice for our Sydney trip. We would definitely stay here again!"

"We loved our stay here. The communcation with Wayne was excellent and he was always ready to help. It is just a short walk to the ferry, which is a nice way to start the day. We enjoyed the feeling of having lived for a week in Mosman, rather than just beig a tourist. Great facilities in the apartment. The cafe at the wharf has some tasty food, just be aware that there isn't a supermarket for quick supplies just around the corner, although you can take a bus into Mosman shops. Overall, highly recommended! Thanks, Wayne :)"

"We had a terrific time even though it hailed just before our tour. Luckily it stopped and we were still able to see plenty of animals. The staff are passionate about the animals and the talks are very entertaining and interesting. It rained at the end of the tour but the tents were dry and the amenities are not far away. We heard the lions roar during the night! We woke up to the birds singing and the stunning harbour view. I could not fault it and it feels good knowing that some of the money goes to animal conservation."
