I have an upcoming stay and read the entire thread. I saw some common themes, and thought it would be useful to start a wiki. Please feel free to update or correct anything. I haven't stayed here, so the information is based on the contents of the thread:
- Diamond Suite Upgrades are NOT available at this property.
- Diamond members receive a complimentary full breakfast for up to 4 guests.
- The beds are very firm platform beds. I saw a few posts where a foam pad for the top of the bed was requested.
- Docked cruise ships that may obstruct the view from the Harbour view rooms.
- The hotel is 4 stories.
The concierge desk offers a weekly tour of the Rocks on Saturday.
Link that shows when cruise ships will be docked opposite the hotel:

While I don't mean to discount your experience by any means the property experience an extremely high level of attempted corporate rate, especially with corporate guests extended benefits to their family/friends. The bigger the company the bigger the discount the bigger the risk. Trust me, it's not personal.

We stayed 2 nights on points last week and got the Opera Deluxe King as Diamond member.
And I am finding the PH SYD has better service than the PH Vendome.

I'm not implying that you were questioning - but it was really hillarious to me when it was first reported - but then that was also pretty close to the property reopening - so perhaps they've smoothen out the procedure.

Open to all guests. I once posted about the pool and an FT'er who had stayed there for years said "what pool?"

Park king or city harbour king
Will be staying on a 9 day reward. Two choices offered are Park King and City Harbour King. What is the difference and which should we choose?

A Park King faces Hickson Rd, without doubt choose the City/Harbour King (partial water view). They tried to avoid assigning Park Kings, unless 100%.

New to Park and to Sydney
My wife and I will do 9 day reward stay at Sydney Park Hyatt. This will be our first visit to Sydney as well as our first stay in a Park Hyatt.
What Diamond Amenities can we expect or request at the hotel and any helpful suggestions about either Sydney and/or the hotel would be appreciated.
Any suggestions about transportation to and from the Airport?
Thank you!
