Where can I stay with this Sydney hotel deal?

Anywhere in Sydney!

It does look like it needs to be in and around the city though. We did test out booking some hotels further out, like in the Blue Mountains, but the discount code wasn’t working on any of the ones we tried.

Which hotels can I book?

Any hotel in Sydney! Well, almost. According to the terms and conditions, there aren’t any specific hotels that aren’t included in the deal, but…

Often big chains are excluded from sales like these, so we did make a few test bookings just to be sure.

We were able to secure the discount on a Hilton and Mercure stay, but when we tried booking a Rydges and Shangri-La, we did get a message saying it wasn’t available on the room type we selected. Unfortunately, the terms and conditions didn’t explain why.

When can I stay?

On the promo page on Trip.com’s website, it says 26 May to 17 June. The deal coincides with the dates for the 2023 Vivid Sydney.

However, in the terms and conditions that appear when you try to book an invalid hotel, it does state that the deal is on until 30 June. We tested this by trying to use it on a date in late-June and it worked!

How to book this Sydney hotel deal

Head over to the Trip.com site and use the promo code “STAYSYD50” when booking to save. You can book a stay anytime before 17 April to get the discount.
