City Centre
For shopping or business in Sydney, the city centre could be the most convenient area to stay. Massive shopping centres sit amongst skyscrapers and Colonial sandstone buildings. If you feel closed in you can retreat to the open spaces of Hyde Park on one side and Darling Harbour on the other, and the main harbour is only a short bus or train ride away.
