Staying at Nesuto Chippendale was an absolute delight. The room was spotless, well-equipped, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a relaxing getaway. What really stood out was the location: it’s just a short walk to UNSW and TAFE, and you can easily reach major Sydney attractions like the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and Central Business District on foot. I loved how convenient everything was—no need to worry about transport or long commutes. Plus, there are countless great dining options nearby. One standout breakfast spot offers five items plus coffee for just $35—huge portions, delicious flavors, and excellent value. It’s rare to find such quality and affordability in Sydney. This place truly delivers on every level. Highly recommend for students, travelers, or anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a great vibe.
I stayed here for five nights and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The location is excellent—right next to a local shopping mall with tons of dining options and multiple bus stops nearby, making it super easy to get around town. The staff went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The room was clean, well-maintained, and had everything I needed, though I did have to bring my own toothbrush and toothpaste (but that’s no big deal—there’s a Coles supermarket in the mall just steps away). I booked the city view room because I love having a window, and while there is a compressor unit outside, it’s not loud enough to be bothersome. I actually enjoyed watching the street life from my window. Overall, this hotel offers great value and a comfortable stay—definitely a top pick for anyone visiting Sydney.
Staying at Crown Hotel Surry Hills was an absolute highlight of my Sydney trip. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Surry Hills, steps away from great cafes, restaurants, and shopping spots. The hotel itself has a warm, welcoming vibe with friendly staff who go above and beyond. My room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed—perfect for a relaxing night’s sleep. I loved the on-site pub: drinks were affordable, the food was delicious, and the staff made me feel right at home. Plus, guests get a free drink upon booking and 10% off meals—great value! There’s also a breakfast nook where you can brew your own coffee or tea and enjoy cereal. It’s clear this place cares about guest experience. If you’re visiting Sydney, don’t miss this gem—it’s highly recommended!
This hotel is incredibly well located—just a short walk from Chinatown and Central Station, with excellent access to buses and trains. It only takes minutes to get to the University of Sydney, and the skydiving pickup point is literally just 100 meters away. I was a bit nervous before booking after reading some negative reviews, but my stay turned out to be far better than expected. The service was friendly and efficient, and our room on the 11th floor offered unobstructed views of the city skyline—truly stunning. The room itself was spotless, clean, and well-maintained. Even though there was no housekeeping during our two-night stay and breakfast wasn’t included, the overall experience was still outstanding. For the price—only $500 per night during National Day—I’d say it’s an absolute steal compared to another hotel I considered that charged double for a smaller room and worse bed. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for comfort, location, and value.
I was in need of a last-minute place to stay for the night, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with my choice. Atelier Serviced Apartments is perfectly located—just a short walk from the city center and close to public transit, making it easy to explore Sydney without hassle. The apartment itself is compact but thoughtfully designed, with a cozy, modern vibe that feels welcoming. The bed was super comfortable, and the kitchenette has everything you’d need for a quick meal or coffee. It’s rare to find such a well-priced, stylish, and convenient option in a busy city like Sydney. I’ll definitely be booking here again on my next visit—highly recommend!
Our stay was extremely disappointing, especially considering the price for just two nights. The apartment was located on a terrace below the pool and felt worn out and poorly lit. There were visible stains on the carpet, the safe didn’t work at all, and a faucet in the bathroom dripped continuously. There was no labeling on the shower taps to indicate which one was hot—very frustrating. While the bedding was clean, the floor just under the bed was covered in dust. The pool was full of leaves, and the surrounding area was overgrown with weeds and littered with empty cans and food wrappers—really unsanitary. Security was also a major concern: access to the pool should have required a key, but the door was left open, and a fire exit was propped open with a wedge. The terrace was easily accessible from the pool area, and after a shower, water flooded the space and remained stagnant—no signs of drainage or obvious blockage. We reached out to management to express our disappointment and expected better quality for the price we paid. This experience fell far short of what we hoped for, and it’s hard to recommend this property without improvements.
Our stay at The Banq Apartments by Urban Rest in Sydney was extremely disappointing. The cleanliness of the property was far below expectations—dust covered every surface, stains were visible on the carpets, and we even found nail clippings and cobwebs both inside and outside the unit. To make matters worse, the dryer was completely broken and unusable. We also couldn’t access the bin room due to locked doors, which made waste disposal a hassle. The worst part was when my partner stepped on glass fragments while walking around the living area, resulting in a painful injury. Safety, hygiene, and basic functionality were all severely lacking. This experience fell far short of what we’d expect from a reputable accommodation, and we wouldn’t recommend it to others.
I stayed at Secret Garden Backpackers for a total of 2.5 months, rotating through three different rooms—each experience was consistently positive. The rooms were clean and generally tidy, though cleanliness did depend on the roommates. Daily housekeeping was reliable, and getting fresh bed linens was never an issue. Even during intense heatwaves without air conditioning, the temperature remained comfortable—never too hot or too cold. Common areas were spotless, with staff cleaning multiple times a day. You’d always see them sweeping, mopping, or wiping down surfaces, which made the hostel feel incredibly hygienic and well-maintained. The highlight? The Secret Garden. It’s not just a garden—it’s a sanctuary. Whether I was having breakfast, reading a book, or just relaxing, this peaceful outdoor space made hostel living enjoyable and bearable. The kitchen is fully equipped with free tea and coffee, microwaves, toasters, and more. The only downside? A few stoves didn’t work, but that’s a minor issue considering how well the rest of the kitchen is kept. Showers have been upgraded recently—new ones with strong water pressure—so I highly recommend using the ones near the staircases instead of those by the garden. They’re clean, fresh, and satisfying. Staff are friendly, professional, and always willing to help with local tips or activity suggestions. What really stood out compared to other hostels? The clear expectations around hygiene and cleanliness. They don’t hesitate to kindly remind guests to tidy up their space—always in a respectful, non-confrontational way. That kind of accountability makes a huge difference. This hostel isn’t just good—it’s one of the best I’ve ever stayed at across many cities. Highly recommended.
The stay was excellent overall—great location, just a short walk to public transit and surrounded by great dining options. The only downside was when I returned from an outing, I found my room had been changed without my consent. Apparently, a tour group staff member rearranged my booking behind the scenes, which felt intrusive and frustrating. Communication could definitely be improved—guests should always be consulted before any changes are made. Despite this hiccup, the property is well-maintained, welcoming, and offers fantastic value for money. Would definitely recommend it to travelers looking for a comfortable, central base in Surry Hills.
Staying at Pullman Sydney Airport was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The front desk staff, manager, and housekeeping team were all incredibly warm and attentive—every request was met with a quick, genuine response. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The bathroom was spotless and well-maintained, which is always a plus when you’re traveling. I especially appreciated the mini-bar offering milk—a small but thoughtful touch that made my stay even more convenient. Located just steps away from the airport, it’s easy to access via public transit, and the overall value is outstanding. Definitely going back next time I’m in Sydney.
My stay at The Branksome Hotel & Residences in Sydney was absolutely perfect—12 nights, and I couldn’t have asked for more. The room was spacious with smart layout, spotlessly clean, and the kitchenette was fully equipped, making it ideal for families traveling with kids. I especially loved the pool—on hot days, I could just stay put and cool off without stepping outside. The hotel’s proximity to the airport is a huge plus; once inside, you barely hear any noise from the air traffic. It’s also just a 20-minute walk to the city center, where you can reach major supermarkets or hop on public transit to iconic spots like Circular Quay, the Opera House, museums, and beaches. I even discovered Maroubra Beach just a short drive away—beautiful, relaxed, and perfect for a quick escape. Even the taxi drivers were impressed by the location and quality of the property. If you’re looking for comfort, convenience, and value, this place delivers every single time.
If you're flying in and out of Sydney Airport, this hotel is an absolute gem for convenience. Located just a stone's throw from SYD, the real highlight is how close it is to the metro station—just a 2-minute walk. Hop on the train, take one stop, and you're at the Domestic Airport terminal with no hassle carrying luggage through transfers. Getting into the city center is equally seamless, reaching it within 30 minutes—perfect whether you're here for business or leisure. The room itself was spacious and well-designed, with a compact but fully functional kitchenette including an oven and stovetop. It made cooking simple meals or preparing snacks super easy, especially for longer stays. The separate living area added a nice touch of comfort and privacy. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, which helped us sleep well despite the travel fatigue. And the best surprise? There are so many authentic Chinese restaurants nearby—Cantonese, Sichuan, hot pot—you name it. My cravings were seriously satisfied without having to search far. The only minor downside is that the bathroom isn’t separated into dry and wet zones, so the floor gets damp after showers. But honestly, that’s a small trade-off considering everything else. Overall, this place nails the essentials: unbeatable location, practical amenities, and great food options. For travelers connecting through Sydney or using it as a base to explore the city, it’s a top-tier choice with fantastic value. Highly recommend.
