Which is the best Meriton suite in Sydney?

Top-rated Meriton Suites by location and amenities

Meriton Suites Kent Street consistently earns the highest guest scores. It scores 4.5/5 on Booking.com and offers an indoor pool and spa in the central CBD (Booking.com user reviews). For skyline lovers, Meriton Suites World Tower delivers panoramic city and harbor views from its Level 15 sundeck (Agoda property listing). Meanwhile, Meriton Suites Pitt Street sits just 0.2 miles from Sydney’s center, making it the best base for shoppers and diners (KAYAK location data).

The upshot

If you want the highest-rated suite overall, Kent Street is your safest bet. If you prefer waking up to the harbour, World Tower justifies its premium price.

The implication: Kent Street wins on consistency, World Tower wins on views — pick your priority.

Comparing Meriton Suites Kent Street, World Tower, and Pitt Street

Three top contenders, each with a distinct strength: Kent Street for quality, World Tower for views, Pitt Street for location.

Here is how the three front-runners stack up on price, rating, and proximity to the city center.

Feature Kent Street World Tower Pitt Street
Average nightly rate (last month) ~$350 AUD ~$998 AUD (Agoda) ~$162–$301 AUD (KAYAK)
Guest rating (Booking.com) 4.5/5 4.3/5 4.2/5
Distance to Sydney center 0.3 miles 0.4 miles 0.2 miles
Why this matters

World Tower’s $998 average is a outlier — it reflects the premium for top-floor suites with unobstructed views. Most travelers will find better value at Kent Street or Pitt Street.

Where does Taylor Swift stay in Sydney?

Taylor Swift’s $38,000-a-night suite at the Crown Sydney

Taylor Swift reportedly stayed at Crown Sydney in Barangaroo during her 2024 tour, booking a suite that cost $38,000 per night (Man of Many lifestyle publication). That property is not a Meriton suite but a separate luxury hotel known for hosting A-list celebrities.

Why celebrities choose luxury suites in Barangaroo

Barangaroo’s waterfront location and private-access penthouses make it a magnet for high-profile guests. Meriton Suites does not have a property in Barangaroo, but nearby Meriton Suites World Tower is the closest option with comparable skyline appeal.

Bottom line: Taylor Swift’s stay was at Crown Sydney, not a Meriton property. If you want celebrity-adjacent vibes, World Tower is your best Meriton bet.

How much are Meriton apartments in Sydney?

Average nightly rates across Meriton Suites locations

Meriton Suites range from about $250 to $700 per night depending on suite type and location. Meriton Suites Campbell Street offers the lowest starting rates around $250 AUD, while World Tower can hit nearly $1,000 for premium suites (Agoda property listing).

Price comparison: Meriton Suites Kent Street, World Tower, and Campbell Street

The spread between the cheapest and priciest Meriton properties reveals a clear value hierarchy.

Property Cheapest rate (last 2 weeks) Average weeknight Average weekend night
Kent Street ~$280 ~$340 ~$360
World Tower ~$450 ~$998 ~$1,100
Campbell Street ~$250 ~$290 ~$310
The catch

World Tower’s high average is skewed by its penthouse suites. Standard rooms at World Tower often start around $450, still double Campbell Street.

The pattern: Campbell Street delivers genuine budget value, while World Tower only makes sense if those views are non-negotiable.

Where do celebrities stay in Sydney?

Hotels preferred by A-list visitors: Crown Sydney, Park Hyatt, and Meriton Suites

Crown Sydney (Barangaroo) and Park Hyatt (Circular Quay) are the go-to hotels for celebrities. Meriton Suites World Tower has hosted influencers and minor celebrities, but no major A-lister has been publicly documented at any Meriton property (Tripadvisor traveler forum).

Which Meriton Suites properties have hosted celebrities

Meriton Suites World Tower is the most likely property to attract celebrity guests due to its sky-view suites and central location. However, the company does not officially disclose guest lists. For travelers seeking verified data on other luxury options, the Moxy Sydney Airport offers a different price point entirely, while The Ritz-Carlton Melbourne provides a separate luxury benchmark outside Sydney. Zac Efron, for instance, owns a house in Byron Bay, not a Sydney Meriton suite (Realestate.com.au property records).

Is it better to stay in Darling Harbour or Circular Quay?

Darling Harbour: nightlife, convention center, and family attractions

Darling Harbour offers the ICC Sydney, SEA LIFE Aquarium, and a lively dining precinct. Meriton Suites Campbell Street is a 5-minute walk, making it ideal for conference-goers and families.

Circular Quay: iconic views, Opera House, and luxury shopping

Circular Quay is the postcard Sydney — Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and the best luxury shopping. Meriton Suites Pitt Street is the closest Meriton, a 5-minute walk from Circular Quay station. Meriton Suites World Tower sits between both, giving access to either in under 10 minutes.

The trade-off

Darling Harbour wins for family attractions and convention access; Circular Quay wins for first-time visitors wanting iconic selfies. World Tower straddles both, but expect higher rates.

What this means: pick Darling Harbour for function, Circular Quay for spectacle — and World Tower if you refuse to choose.

How many Meriton properties are there in Sydney?

Complete list of 16 Meriton Suites in Sydney

Meriton Suites operates 16 hotels across Sydney: 10 in the CBD (including Kent Street, World Tower, Pitt Street, Campbell Street) and 6 in suburbs such as Parramatta, Liverpool, and Waterloo (Meriton Suites official site).

Neighborhood guide: CBD, Parramatta, Liverpool, and Waterloo

The geographic spread of Meriton properties tells you which neighborhood suits which traveler type.

Neighborhood Number of Meriton properties Best for
Sydney CBD 10 Business, sightseeing, shopping
Parramatta 2 Families, park access, parking
Liverpool 2 Conference, airport proximity
Waterloo 2 Quiet stay, near Surry Hills cafes

The catch: the 10 CBD properties offer convenience but at a premium — suburban locations like Parramatta trade distance for space and lower rates.

What’s unclear

  • Exact list of celebrities who have stayed at Meriton Suites properties is not officially published
  • Specific nightly rates fluctuate per season and are best checked directly on the Meriton Suites website
  • Zac Efron’s Australian home is in Byron Bay, not a Sydney Meriton suite (Realestate.com.au property records)

“The suite was spotless, and we loved the pool after a day exploring the city. Location is ideal for walking to everything.”

— Guest review, TripAdvisor for Meriton Suites Kent Street (TripAdvisor guest review)

“Crown Sydney’s presidential suite offers private lifts, a butler, and a terrace overlooking the harbour. At $38,000 a night, it’s a level of luxury rarely seen in Australia.”

— Man of Many, commentary on Taylor Swift’s suite (Man of Many lifestyle publication)

For travelers weighing Meriton suites against other Sydney options, the choice depends on what matters most: consistent quality (Kent Street), show-stopping views (World Tower), or pure value (Campbell Street). If you’re chasing a celebrity-adjacent experience, accept that Meriton’s footprint doesn’t include Barangaroo — but World Tower offers the closest public alternative. For families and convention visitors, Parramatta and Campbell Street deliver more space for less money. The smartest move: book using the price signal insights — target March or May and weekdays — to shave 20-30% off your stay.
