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:

The key assumption was that five nights was the maximum. Personally, I would suggest at least three in MEL and at least five or six in SYD at the Park Hyatt, but that's also a function of how convenient the country is for a person to visit. It's about a 16,000 mile round-trip for me, so I'd try to schedule a few extra days.

Westin, Sofitel, GH and PH tend to be similar in pricing. I would be surprised if the Langham was half the price unless the PH was sold out in lower category rooms.

Haven't done a ton of research as my trip is still a little more than a year out. I looked up a random date in October (when I will likely visit) and PH was $404 vs $237 for the Langham.
