Kimpton Margot Sydney

Could not be more happy with my stay at the Kimpton Margot over Christmas. Dave, the manager, was incredibly accommodating and the front desk was quick to respond to any matter necessary. Not only was the hotel beautiful, my experience was really incredible because of the fantastic work of the hotel staff. Highly recommend for your future stays in Sydney!

Great location. Housekeeping not great. Once found cleaner left all her sprays in the room. No matter what time we left the room, or got back, the room was NEVER made up. 3 times had to find (3pm 4pm, 345pm 230pm) cleaner on floor and beg to do our room next. On the 4th day finally went to reception and was lectured on how the staff were doing their best? Great. Had to ask the rude desk person to remember who was the customer? Not happy. Had been patient, but not worthy of 2 stars... who tries to guilt the paying customer... and its not cheap... just makes an otherwise great holiday a little less good. No more IHG for me...

This was a beautiful room and a beautiful hotel. I loved the art deco over-the-top lobby. The room had high ceilings and great furnishings and lighting. The bathroom was large. I don't love an internal window into the bathroom but since it's only me there, it didn't matter.I wish I could afford this room every trip!

This is an IHG. hotel, well-located in Pitt Street near Bathurst Street, with a second exit off Bathurst Street for those walking to Town Hall Station or the light rail; both, only a couple of minutes away. Hotel has a grand feel with elevators in the foyer before you enter to go to reception which means that you don’t have to go into the hotel proper on your way to your room. Rooms are a good standard and well-appointed. We arrived early for check -in and needed to change for a lunch booking-our room wasn’t ready. Shout-out to Chelsea who chased up housekeeping and got us early access for which we were really grateful. We were pushed for time and Chelsea again came to our assistance in not just arranging our cab, but phoning us to advise that the cab had arrived. Her customer service was exceptional…many thanks. We originally did not book breakfast which is a bit on the pricey side but in the end relented, and then realised why we had originally decided against it. Breakfast is a bit of a strange concept where you can have a coffee with a pastry or a small fruit bowl, and the choice of a main. No buffet, no cereals; and, not to my liking but that’s me. Next time I will consider other breakfast options. A nice city hotel, where we experienced excellent service, a good standard of comfortable room in a great location. Recommended.

The hotel is absolutly beautifully designed and the rooms are very, very nice. The location is pleasant and the staff is generally very friendly. Unfortunately, the breakfast was a clear weak point. On all four mornings we left the restaurant still feeling hungry. The à la carte breakfast was nicely presented and tasted good, but the portions were very small. For a hotel of this standard, the quantity is not sufficient. In addition, the morning service was slow. We often had to wait a long time for coffee and for service overall. Especially at breakfast, a smooth and attentive service is important. With better organization and more generous portions, the breakfast experience could match the otherwise positive overall impression of the hotel

Loved our stay at the Kimpton Margot. Arrived early and pleased our room was ready 90mins early. Room was clean and well prepared, shower was large and amenities all good. Unfortunately no view but bed was comfy and gown and slippers appreciated. Pool area was huge but found ourselves chasing the sun as it was usually hiding behind the nearby buildings. Vibes could have been higher with music playing throughout the day not just from 4pm. Also disappointed the bar wasn’t open for lunch. Location is fab and the free drinks during daily social hour (5-6pm) was great, especially as they could be taken to dinner next door at Luke’s kitchen which we also highly recommend. Service here was friendly, and my wife’s bday recognised with small complimentary dessert. Hope to be back!

I stayed at the Kimpton Margot Sydney for six nights in January 2026 in a King Bed Essential room. First of all, the hotel has a superb location. It's a short walk to the George Street tram line, Town Hall and Gadigal train stations and various bus stands. The hotel building, constructed in the 1930s, was originally the headquarters of the local water board. When it was converted into a hotel, the art deco style of its era was retained. The lobby area is spectacular, with pink granite columns and plenty of seating. My room, despite being one of the basic types, was spacious and beautifully furnished and presented, with blue and gold carpet, brass lamps and dark wood cabinetry. I particularly liked the extensive storage in the form of many cupboards, shelves and drawers. The room had the latest technology, with electronically controlled lights and a Samsung tablet that contained hotel information. You could use the tablet to order room service, contact reception and so on. My only negative comment about the room is the shower was the handheld type and didn't have the best water pressure. All reception and dining/bar staff I interacted with were polite, efficient and helpful. There was a minor issue one morning when a staff member kind of barged into my room to check the mini bar. I reported this to reception on check-out and they were very apologetic, promised to escalate the matter internally and gave me a credit against some food expenses on my bill.
