Castlereagh Boutique Hotel, Ascend Hotel Collection
Staying at Castlereagh Boutique Hotel was a delightful experience. While the building has a classic, vintage charm with its aged architecture, the real highlight is the unbeatable location right in the heart of Sydney's city center. Just steps away from shopping districts and vibrant streets, everything you need is within walking distance. The café just downstairs is a perfect spot for a morning coffee or light snack—great ambiance and friendly service. Despite its age, the hotel feels warm, well-maintained, and full of character. It’s an excellent choice for travelers who value convenience, atmosphere, and a touch of timeless elegance.
Comfort Inn North Shore
This was our second visit to Comfort Inn North Shore, and once again, we were thoroughly impressed. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the ferry terminal and minutes away from the vibrant local shops and restaurants. Our room was spacious and bright, with a lovely view of the surrounding greenery and distant water. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, offering helpful tips on nearby attractions and ensuring everything was taken care of. We’ve found that booking directly with the motel often gives better rates than third-party sites, so we highly recommend doing so. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and excellent value. A top choice in Sydney!
Hotel Harry, Ascend Hotel Collection
Hotel Harry truly exceeded my expectations! The place was immaculately clean, with a modern and welcoming vibe. Located just a short walk from the heart of Sydney, it's incredibly convenient for exploring major attractions—everything is within easy reach via public transport. What stood out most was the outstanding value for money; you get a high-quality stay without breaking the bank. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was both comfortable and well-appointed. I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next visit to Sydney. Highly recommended!
Quality Apartments Camperdown
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.
Orange Stay Apartments Potts Point
Staying at Orange Stay Apartments Potts Point was a solid choice, especially for the location. The building is just steps away from King Cross Metro station, with a bus stop right outside—perfect for getting around Sydney. The area itself is vibrant, packed with diverse restaurants, local markets, and shops, making daily life super convenient. The apartment had a smart access system with magnetic key cards for both the main door and elevator. We were in a two-bedroom unit: the larger bedroom had a built-in wardrobe and a private balcony—great for relaxing. However, the second bedroom wasn’t ideal; it was separated from the living area by a partial wall that didn’t reach the ceiling, and there was only one narrow shelf for clothes. Plus, it faced a very noisy street, so we had to keep the window closed most of the time. The open-plan living-dining area included a full kitchenette, and the bathroom came with a shower. Wi-Fi was strong and reliable. Cleaning was done weekly, and while not daily, they provided essentials like toiletries, dish soap, and laundry detergent. Since there’s no front desk, we coordinated our check-in time directly with the onsite manager who gave us his contact number. For checkout, we simply left the keys inside the unit and walked out—no hassle at all. The rate was the highest among all my accommodations in Australia, but considering Sydney’s premium pricing and prime location, it felt justified. Overall, I’d recommend this place if you value convenience, great transport links, and a central base in a lively neighborhood.
Mantra Chatswood
Staying at Mantra Chatswood was a fantastic experience. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with everything in perfect condition—from the bedding to the bathroom fixtures. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. Located just minutes from public transit, getting into central Sydney is quick and easy. There are plenty of dining options and local attractions nearby, making it ideal for both business and leisure travelers. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend this hotel—it’s a great value and truly delivers on comfort and convenience.
Meriton Suites Coward Street
Staying here was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from Mascot Station and multiple bus stops, making it super easy to explore Sydney or head to the airport. My room was spacious, clean, and beautifully designed with modern touches throughout. I loved the king-sized bed—it was incredibly comfortable, and the rain shower in the bathroom was a real treat after a long day. The staff at the front desk were genuinely friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. It’s clear they take pride in their service. For a seamless, convenient, and relaxing stay in Sydney, this place really delivers. Highly recommend!
202 Elizabeth
Staying at 202 Elizabeth Hotel was a delightful experience from start to finish. The room was spotlessly clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed—perfect for a comfortable stay without feeling cramped. Located just steps away from the metro station, getting around Sydney was incredibly convenient, whether heading to the CBD, Opera House, or Harbour Bridge. The staff went above and beyond with friendly, genuine service—always ready to help with local tips or recommendations. It’s clear this place values guest comfort and satisfaction. With its unbeatable location, cleanliness, and warm hospitality, it’s a standout choice for travelers looking for a relaxed yet vibrant base in Sydney. I’d absolutely stay here again.
The Sebel Quay West Suites Sydney
Staying at The Sebel Quay West Suites Sydney was an absolute highlight of my trip to Sydney. The views from the room were breathtaking—direct sightlines to the harbor and the iconic Opera House, especially stunning during sunset. The apartment-style rooms are spacious and well-designed, perfect for families or longer stays. I appreciated having a washing machine in the unit, which made packing light much easier. Location-wise, it's unbeatable—just a short walk to the city center, the Opera House, and Harbour Bridge. It truly lives up to the dream of what Sydney should be. The only minor downside is the parking cost, which can be quite high if you're not careful—make sure you don't accidentally enter Wilson Parking, as rates there can add up quickly. Overall, the experience was excellent, and with such a prime location and great amenities, the value still shines through. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Sydney.
Stoke Beach House
Stoke Beach House is an absolute gem—perfect for both leisure travelers and digital nomads looking to unwind. The location is unbeatable, just steps from the beach with easy access to public transit for exploring Sydney. The vibe is relaxed and coastal, with clean, stylish rooms that feel like a true escape. I was especially impressed by the complimentary breakfast—fresh juices, local pastries, and hot dishes every morning made starting the day a treat. The free surfboard rental is a game-changer; you can hit the waves right after check-in. Plus, having power outlets right at the bedside? A small but thoughtful touch that makes life so much easier. Everything about this place feels well thought out—from the welcoming staff to the quiet, peaceful atmosphere. If you're looking for a serene, affordable, and convenient base in Sydney, this is hands-down my top recommendation.
Barrys Beach Road Hotel
Staying at Barry's Beach Road Hotel was an absolute delight. The room was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with a spacious balcony offering breathtaking views of the ocean—perfect for morning coffee or watching the sunset. Located just one street away from the beach, it’s ideal for those who love easy access to the water without sacrificing comfort. The surrounding area is vibrant and convenient: right next door is a lively local market where you can grab fresh produce, snacks, and unique souvenirs. I especially loved the steak at a nearby restaurant—rich, juicy, and cooked to perfection. Everything is within walking distance, and public transport links to the city center are super easy. This hotel strikes the perfect balance between seaside tranquility and urban accessibility. Highly recommend for travelers seeking both relaxation and convenience.
MRS Banks Hotel
Staying at Mrs Banks Hotel in Paddington was such a delightful experience. The location is perfect—quiet and cozy, yet just a short walk from the city center and all the local amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit, making us feel right at home. The room was simple but clean and well-maintained, with a peaceful atmosphere that made it easy to unwind after a day exploring Sydney. I especially appreciated how close we were to cafes, shops, and public transport—everything you’d want for a comfortable and convenient stay. A hidden gem in a great neighborhood, highly recommend this place if you're looking for a relaxed, authentic vibe without sacrificing convenience.
