Sydney Airport to City - best way?

What is the best way to get from Sydney Airport to my hotel in the Rocks
area of the city. As there will be 2 of us with a fair bit of luggage using
the bus/train not particularly suitable. A lot of counties have the 'shared
minibus' type transport, often working out cheaper than a taxi. Does Sydney
Airport have this? How much would a taxi be, (middle of the day)?

Thanks for any help you can give

Short answer is 'yes'. There are minibuses, and we've used one, very
handy, drove us right to our hotel, very reasonably prices as well. Even
a running commentary on the 'sights' if you get the right driver. Best
way I think to get from airport to hotel.

If there are two of you I'd suggest a taxi would be your best bet. There
are shuttles, but you possibly have to wait around, and then run via a
circuitous route dropping off other passengers before you get to the hotel.
I see one of them charges $21 per person, the taxi fare should be somewhat
less than $40 to your destination.

The train is another option, but you'd have a bit of a walk or another taxi
from Circular Quay, depending on which hotel you stay at. The fares to/from
airport stations are quite expensive.

The train from Sydney airport to City is a very good way to go! .
I have used it with one large case and carry on luggage for each
of us on numerous occasions without a problem.
Only time where problemn might exist is if you are doing it in peak hour.
Why do you think you will have a problem?
