Four Seasons Hotel Sydney

A true five-star property located in the epicentre of Sydney's tourist precinct showcases uninterrupted views of her crown jewels: the harbour, the bridge and the house. The highest level of service, fine dining, elegant décor and a hip whisky bar seal an already excellent deal.

A recent renovation has spruced up this haven for both business travelers and couples who want to be spoiled during their stay in Sydney... Have I mentioned the bathtubs? They're gigantic, and made for two.

Our readers called this hotel "first class in every respect," with a "terrific location" and "a wonderful view of the entire harbor and bridge." The staff is "helpful with recommending all the sights of Sydney" and the spa is "fabulous."
