Best Hotels in Erskineville, Australia

My two kids and I were visiting Sydney to catch up with friends for a few days and just needed a place to crash in the evenings. I used to be a local so knew the Erko would be the perfect home base for our plans - close to transport, groceries, shopping, cafes, and sushi! The 3/4-person room was spacious and clean, the shared bathrooms in good condition (although you had to run the shower for a good 4min before the hot water kicked in! Once the temperature was good it remained steady but I cringed at the waste of water at the outset), and the shared kitchen had great facilities. Although it was noisy when the pub was open, the sound remained unobtrusively in the background (like someone having a party next door) and disappeared altogether by midnight. We were very happy with our experience overall (my kids really want to come back sometime!) especially relative to the price. The only things I would recommend they improve is to get a hot water system installed closer to the bathrooms and see if they can reserve some customer parking in the council carpark next door - I managed to snag one of the two unrestricted parking spots right outside the door on our second day but it was pretty stressful having to move the car every two hours until then. It would also be great to get provide reverse-cycle aircon and secure wifi but those aren't deal-breakers given that we had enough bedding to stay cozy and the council provides free wifi coverage in the area. If you're just looking for a well situated crash pad while visiting Sydney I highly recommend the Erko. Thanks again for a great stay.

Small, the benefits are cheap, free parking is also fake, just can stop at the back of the road, not necessarily have parking spaces, security feels very bad.

Overall an unpleasant stay in (Billabong Gardens), which is now rebranded as Summer House Newtown, part of the Summer House hostel chain. There was a short bald Australian guy, who was notably obnoxious to deal with, and made offensive remarks about women. The manager was also a socially awkward individual to have to deal with. The location is okay, close to King Street, and many restaurants and shops. Walking distance to Broadway Shopping Centre, and city. The real problem with this hostel is with the many infantile rules that they have, the lack of atmosphere or friendliness, and the lack of cleanliness. I had bugs in my room, running around on the floor. Based on my stay, I would not want to recommend this hostel, there are better ones in Sydney.

With a stay at Sydney Boutique Villas in Sydney (Waterloo), you'll be within a 5-minute drive of University of Sydney and Capitol Theatre. This hotel is 2.8 mi (4.5 km) from Star Casino and 3.9 mi (6.2 km) from Circular Quay.Free self parking is available onsite.Make yourself at home in one of the 61 guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Bathrooms feature bathtubs or showers with rainfall showerheads. Conveniences include electric kettles and fans.

Great place to stay. Staff were friendly and only too happy to help when required for any issues that presented themselves. Highly recommend staying there, good location. Restaurant has well priced meals, can charge back to room. Also has room service. Undercover car park is a bit tight when in big 4wds, good height clearance.

I was attending Australian Fashion Week and was looking for somewhere to stay that would be comfortable. I was not looking for student type accommodation Adina was the closest to Cariageworks and really surprised me. I have never had someone take my bags to my room in Australia! I offered a tip and they wouldn’t accept. The room was immaculate, I felt I was the first person to use it. I found the room very quiet even though it overlooked the pool. I mentioned that I don’t drink water out of the tap and when I returned there were three tins of still water on the kitchen table. I can’t rate Adina highly enough. Congratulations I will be back !

This may not be your regular 4 or 5 star hotel. Let's face it, the rooms are pretty small BUT they're incredibly compact, extremely comfortable, well-presented and extraordinarily clean. In fact, the entire hotel is so scrupulously clean, I knew if my mother were still alive, she'd be declaring the floors so clean ”that you could eat your dinner off them”. Plus, the staff couldn't have been more helpful and professionally friendly. Situated very close to Sydney University and RPA Hospital, there's an express bus-stop to the city right outside the hotel's door, as well as a plethora of shops, pubs, cafes, bars & restaurants within easy walking distance. Onsite undercover parking is also available, but limited - so if you need it, book your space as soon as you can. In summary, Best Western Camperdown Suites is, in these financially difficult times, is indeed fantastic value for money.

Absolutely terrible service. I booked this place before an early flight from Sydney the next morning and it was a last minute trip due to the rain storms in NSW that weekend. During a 5 hour train journey from Albion Park (that should actually take 1.5hrs) it became clear that we weren't going to make the midnight check in time, as landslides meant we had to take a bus replacement service. I tried multiple times to contact the hotel but to no avail and so I requested a free cancellation. I didn't get another response until nearly midnight on the day of the booking, by which point I had obviously booked another place to stay. The response said that I couldn't cancel for free as it was within 24 hours of booking. The response failed to address that I had requested to cancel within 15 minutes of booking and that I only cancelled on the basis that I wasn't going to be able to get there for their check in restrictions due to the adverse weather. Funnily enough it looks like we missed a treat with the amount of reviews that mention cockroaches crawling over the beds!! I've tried about 10 times since to contact this place and have had not one response regarding this. Truly dreadful service & such a shame that it's tainted our holiday experience. DO NOT GIVE THIS CORRUPT BUSINESS YOUR MONEY! F**k you Cambridge Lodge.

Veriu Green Square Hotel for my three week stay was absolutely amazing. I was looked after so well by: Timo, Jo, Chelsea, Indre, Heidi and also the reception team, housekeeping team and the maintenance team. I appreciated the fun, fabulous and friendly atmosphere. The bedroom (Room 621) was wonderful, as were all the amenities (such as the laundry room on the first floor). Every single member of staff made me feel so welcome and special, especially with it being my first ever trip to Australia (from London). I would highly recommend this delightful hotel to my family, friends, networks and contacts. I have just booked another long stay for Sydney Mardi Gras 2024 and looking forward to it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please keep up the superb work at the Veriu Green Square Hotel in Sydney.

Located conveniently for an overnight stay between flights, the hotel did the job. A reasonably friendly checking-in process and I was grateful for an early check in as well after an overnight flight, thank you Valuesuites. The room is very small, mine had a single bed (not firm, but it was OK) and road noise carries, however with the window closed (which I liked being able to open for fresh air, great!), the road noise was much less. The room is fitted with all you need. Shower hot water was good. The next morning, as a coffee drinker, you are very well looked after with a Nescafe capsule machine on the first floor, with a wide variety of coffee to choose from. This, together with some quality breakfast snacks included adjacent (muesli bars, fruit/nut mix and cheese and crackers), well, these were a nice touch, thank you. For the price, location and coffee:) a good choice for an overnighter between flights that's not too expensive, nor far from the airport / Airport rail / Woolworths and cafes.
