Affordable but not all that comfy
Very convenient to the train station. No frills room, questionable cleanliness, moderate comfort. Affordability and location are the best features.

Would recommend
Good hotel close to Central Station so ideal for our needs. Reception staff efficient and helpful. It has a restaurant which does a good breakfast including gluten free options but not many GF choices on the evening menu. However plenty of eateries nearby (mostly Chinese and Thai, being Chinatown area)

Great find!
For the price this was a perfect place to stay, so well located and everything in the room I needed. I would definitely stay here again when in Sydney, a real find!
Christopher, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely reception and heritage display
All fairly average. The shower etc grouting could do with some attention
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Convenient to Central Station
Stayed here for a couple of nights and will be returning as quite happy with the set up for a city hotel and the prices. Staff are friendly and helpful. Room was a decent size, bed comfortable and shower good. Plenty of choices at breakfast and gluten free options but could do with a better GF selection on the evening menu (maybe a pasta dish?)

Angela, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay at an affordable price in the heart of Sydney. Rooms are outdated and the bed was a bit stiff, but honestly couldn’t fault the overall establishment. Had a great charm to it and the food was excellent. Would definitely stay here again!
Abigail, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok for a short stay and transport
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A bargain inner city location.
Excellent location to tram and Central train station. Lots of restaurants around, mainly Asian as this location is close to China Town. A pleasant walk or tram ride to city centre. Dining room and hotel bar on premises. This is a popular hotel for travellers despite the rooms being a little tired. However if sparkles are not what you are after, it’s a great place to stay.
