Editor's note
The Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park boasts a lovely rooftop pool offering spectacular views, likely over Hyde Park and St. Mary's Cathedral. While it provides a "magnificent building" setting, details on furnishings or specific amenities are scarce. The pool appears to be a notable feature, contributing positively to the guest experience despite some mixed reviews about other hotel services.
