Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney
11 Jamison Street
Sydney, Australia
2000
Nearest Airport: SYD
We stayed at the Amora Jamison from the 5th-12th April 2026 - then back for the 12-14th as our flight was aborted! From the moment we arrived and parked the rental car downstairs (take the option or you'll regret it with SYD parking prices!) - we were met by the concierge Chester who personally rushed our luggage to our room with a smile - we knew immediately as global travellers and reviewers that the place just fitted our needs: Central to Circular Quay in order to meet family members off a cruise ship and equidistant from Darling Harbour - plus walking distance to shopping if you need it (Mrs Curious did...). Check-in - we met the highly professional Duty Manager Mahdi who convinced us for a small(ish) fee to upgrade our room - as we were staying for seven nights and it was special occasion - we were taken up to the 31st floor, where we not only had a great view, but also the use of the Jamison Club which provides all day coffee and fruit plus lounges and a superb evening spread of everything you would need for a light dinner plus drinks - this is where we met our favourite hostess/waitress/superstar.* The rooms are great - far larger than our previous New York room which was $200 a night more expensive. It had everything we needed plus that view. We only used the pool once - lovely, but we were too busy seeing the sites and travelling out to places like the Blue Mountains (a must - do it!) Breakfast was included in our price and it gets 10/10 - a nod to Nikita for her attentive nature and lovely smile. Gluten free troublemakers like me were well catered for and the buffet was frankly enormous. Vasanthe - we met this lovely young man in the lift many times - he sounded English - absolute professional and clearly proud to be on the Amora team - as indeed every staff member we spoke to seemed to be - I do hope they are treated as well as it seemed. Finally, I wanted to reserve a special mention for Andressa* (Andi) the Brasilian hostess of the Jamison Club and also very often one of the waiting staff in the restaurant. I hurt myself in the Club - entirely my fault, but Andressa's concern was genuine and we hit it off straight away - Management team note: If I ran a business in Sydney I would steal her overnight! Appropriate humour, compassion, attentive but discreet, professional and clearly multi-lingual - her ever-present smile made our day - just sorry we weren't able to say a proper goodbye after our unexpected return. IF the Amora management team read this, please ensure that Andressa is suitably recognised if you have a staff promotion/rewards scheme etc. Thanks. The return! Our flight was aborted on the runway - and at 23:00 on a Sunday finding a hotel in Sydney is never easy - unless you happen to have been a guest at the Amora. We got the taxi back, met the night manager and checked back in for another two nights - ever grateful that he upgraded us to a small suite due to our earlier custom - can't recall his name as we were shattered, but he'll know. So, in summary - great location, great rooms, great facilities, bars and restaurants, lovely staff and very central to all your needs. 10/10 we will return and it's easy to see why the cruise sector places so many of its pax with the Amora Jamison in Sydney.
