I have to warn any travellers coming in from overseas that the power sockets in the room are too low to the ground to accommodate a travel adaptor - I had to take mine to the tea/coffee station in the corridor and unplug the kettle to charge my phone. I think the bathrooms could be a lot cleaner, but everything in them worked.

I booked a room here at the very last minute after my flight was cancelled, so the fact that they were able to accommodate me at all was great! The price was very reasonable for such short notice and it was about 15-20 minutes away from the airport by taxi. The room I stayed in was very spacious and had a Victorian feel to it, much like the rest of the hotel. I had problems initially paying with my foreign card but the staff were persistently helpful and eventually managed to sort it for me. The venue is mainly a bar/pub with bedrooms above, which is nice since you can relax and get something to drink when you arrive; and although I was worried that it would be noisy with a bar underneath, the bedrooms are actually very quiet.

No en suite, but I guess heritage protected. Predicates against many female guests.

Location closed to Moore Park and rugby. Very convenient

Over all clean, maybe the bathroom could do with a better cleaning under the wooden grates. There's a few stairs to room. 2 toilets, one bathroom which is shower over bath. Air-conditioning in room. Kettle outside room. No fridge.

Very Deco and rustic. Great bones, great location and bed was comfy. Great food and beer! Staff were friendly, and did I mention my steak was perfect?

Great old fashion Aussie pub with lots of character and charm

Perfect location. 5 minute tram ride to entertainment quarter, same for Central Station. Lots of places to get food nearby. The old fashioned rooms were a bit different.

Communication, the phone number isn’t connected and I needed to contact them about dropping my bag of early but no one responded to email / facebook message / instagram message. They need a way to be contacted, it’s 2023, not BC

Convenient Good price

The door to my room (Rm 2) was really hard to open from the inside. The shared shower drain was blocked so the bathtub filled up in the 3mins I spent in there.

Great location, friendly and helpful staff, big comfy bed and large room.

Room was a bit musty but to be expected in an old hotel.

Excellent location, light rail is right outside the hotel door.

Location was great in Surry Hills, quick walk to Moore Park and Central Station. Pub was warm and inviting

Nothing not to like really. The old man living upstairs probably could use a lesson in toilet hygiene!

We loved the warm welcome and generous and kind care we received from Em, we loved the location and the food was good too. Also loved the happy good morning we received each morning from the cleaner, what a hard working smiley fellow he is!

Rooms are beautifully decorated, fantastic location, nice bed sheets and pillows. Two floors up from pub entry (enables privacy from patrons).

Price and cleanliness

Stayed in February 2024

Honestly the worst location I’ve ever stayed in. I had the great displeasure of having two nights accommodation when I needed a room in the area. Rooms were dirty and furniture damaged. Bed linen were stained. Bathroom windows are literally non existent. Not even a fly screen or privacy curtain - anyone can see in or out. Bathroom and toilets were foul. Contacted Booking.com as I had serious concerns about my stay and my safety with no response. I literally sat in the room wide awake for two nights because I had no where else to stay and was not comfortable in this accommodation. Staff were unhelpful. No details about anything besides showing me my room. No check out details. Luckily a cleaner was around to take my key as soon as I could leave - otherwise who knows what I would have done. For $180(!!!!!) a night, a hostel would have been leaps and bounds above what is ‘offered’ here.

Location was ok - only possible benefit.

The shared bathroom was dirty, scummy sink, clogged drain in the shower/bath which was also grimy all over - expected more for 180 per night. The room was fine, a bit loud with trains outside but you have to expect that. Never got given a wifi password

Love the location, the bar itself was bustling and a really cosy vibe - the room decorations were eclectic, very old style, AC in the room, comfy bed
