+1 for the Hyatt, don't waste your time at Holiday Inn if you want to make it special. Also, check out the Toranga Zoo across the Harbour. Absolutely increadible views of the city. Down in that area you can also take a ferry from Circular Quay to Darling Harbour. You get great views of the Harbour Bridge and Darling Harbour has lots of shopping and restaurants. Last, I'd take a walk around Hyde Park and the Royal Botanical Gardens. Sydney is a great town, have fun!
