Night-Before Score
The verdict

Sheraton Grand prints a price for parking and for the airport car. Marriott prints A$65 (about US$45) a day for self-parking and A$95 (about US$65) for valet, with eight EV charging stations, and says a private airport car through Brunel Worldwide is A$140 (about US$100) each way on request.

Elizabeth Street to the Overseas Passenger Terminal is about 2.0 road miles (3.2 km) and 7 minutes on our routing, with White Bay at 2.9. No shuttle and no named station means a zero ride score; what you get instead is a 558-room hotel, 48 of them suites, across from Hyde Park.

Neither a restaurant, a bar nor a pool is named on the page, and it prints no breakfast terms. Check-in is 3 pm and check-out 11 am.

I'd book it if you want a big Hyde Park hotel with a car-park rate on the page, and I'd ask what it serves for breakfast.

Book it if

  • Parking rates in writing matter more to you than a restaurant.
  • You'd pay A$140 for the airport car.
  • You need one of the eight EV charging stations.

Look elsewhere if

  • You want a restaurant named before you commit.
  • You want breakfast terms on the page.
  • You need a pool.

At the terminals

No parking at the terminal on cruise days

Those rates cover your night, not the sailing. When you sail, the Port Authority has no parking at the Overseas Passenger Terminal, and White Bay's drop-off car park lets you stay 15 minutes.

The terminal car parks are compared on the cruise-parking page; the stations we score show the rail options.
