Can I cancel a hotel booking for the opening weekend of Vivid Sydney 2027 for free?
Many can. 35 of the 48 hotels listed currently have a free-cancellation rate for these dates; each row shows which. Free-cancellation rates usually cost slightly more than non-refundable ones.
How are these prices worked out?
Each price is the cheapest bookable room for the whole 3-night stay for 2 adults, in Australian dollars, with GST counted, including any part the hotel collects at check-in. They are checked live through Fostay's hotel supplier and refreshed every six hours; this page was last checked 15 Nov 2026, 19:00 Sydney time.
Do these prices include GST?
Yes. Every price counts GST. Some hotels collect part of it at check-in rather than when you book (1 of the 48 listed here), and we add that part to the figure shown, so the total is what you pay in all. Amounts are in Australian dollars; the currency can be switched on the site, and the price shown is the one charged.
