The Occidental Hotel
8.1 (168 reviews)

The Occidental Hotel ★★

📍 43 York St, Wynyard, Sydney

"The location of this place is absolutely unbeatable! It's super convenient, with the subway station right across the street. The subway station even has a Coles supermarket, which is incredibly handy for grabbing some food. Plus, another supermarket downstairs accepts WeChat Pay, which is a huge bonus! There's a bar downstairs, which gets quite busy every day, but it closes at 10 PM, so it's not noisy at night because of the bar. However, it can still be quite noisy, probably because it's in a central transport hub with so many people around. I had a room with three beds all to myself, and the sheets were very clean. The room also had a sink, microwave, and fridge, which was actually quite accommodating. The only downside is that breakfast isn't provided, and it's not super convenient to make your own. The bathroom is outside the room, but I never encountered anyone else in the toilet or shower during my stay."

The Star Grand Hotel and Residences Sydney
8.9 (182 reviews)

The Star Grand Hotel and Residences Sydney ★★★★★

📍 80 Pyrmont Street, Pyrmont, Sydney

The Capsule Hotel
8.4 (363 reviews)

The Capsule Hotel ★★★

📍 Level 3/640 George Street, Sydney

"The facilities are great overall, it's just that the elevator was under repair when I visited 🤣"

Great Southern Hotel Sydney
8.7 (165 reviews)

Great Southern Hotel Sydney ★★★★

📍 717 George St, Haymarket, Sydney

"The hotel's location is absolutely unbeatable – you can see it right from Central Station, and it's right next to Chinatown. QVB and Hyde Park are also within walking distance. However, this hotel is quite old. The first room we were given on the fifth floor was tiny and dark, with white fuzz and mold all over the air vents. The shower facilities were old and the water temperature kept fluctuating. Luckily, they moved us to a room on the eighth floor, which was much cleaner. It feels like the higher floors have fewer rooms and guests, making them more suitable for a stay. If you have high standards for cleanliness and environment, definitely avoid the lower floors."

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney
9.1 (851 reviews)

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney ★★★★★

📍 Lobby Level/1 Martin Pl, Sydney

Situated in one of the city's most prestigious and historic buildings — the former General Post Office (GPO) at 1 Martin Place, Sydney CBD.

Hyatt Regency Sydney
8.5 (490 reviews)

Hyatt Regency Sydney ★★★★★

📍 161 Sussex St, Sydney

"Great comfortable hotel… good breakfast and meals. Area a little hard to navigate"

London Gate Backpackers Hostel
7.6 (116 reviews)

London Gate Backpackers Hostel ★

📍 172-174 Victoria St, Potts Point, Sydney

"The innkeeper should reconsider how to use people here. There is an elderly woman staying here, and often works for her elderly uncle when he is on leave. She obviously became like the boss there. If guests are not on her side, she will find excuses to correct them, such as kicking them out... The guests staying there must listen to her, otherwise, she will make up stories and boycott them. out of there. With the ignorance and consent of the hotel manager there. It feels like an underground force is built here."

Adge Hotel & Residence
8.6 (298 reviews)

Adge Hotel & Residence ★★★★

📍 212 Riley St, Surry Hills, Sydney

"Very funky clean modern hotel. Lovely service. We were able to get an early check in which was great! Cafe downstairs was lovely too. Will definitely stay again if we can get another great deal online."

The Occidental Hotel ★★
"It's quite unique, with a bar downstairs. I happened to be there on Anzac Day, so the bar was packed. For check-in, you just go directly to the bar. For check-out, you simply drop the key into a designated slot. Given its location and price, it's a great option for solo travelers."

Maze Backpackers - Sydney ★
"I booked a single room, and the bed was incredibly small. The soundproofing was terrible, and the blanket was very thin, so I had to ask for another one. The room was cold, with no AC, only a fan, and the light even took a second to turn on. However, the cleanliness was what you'd expect for 300 AUD in Sydney – average, neither good nor bad. The picture is of the bathroom. The service, though, was good; the staff were very friendly and pleasant."

London Gate Backpackers Hostel ★
"The worst backpackers that I have ever been, literally. I booked for 6 nights and left the place after not more than 30 min after checked in. The backpackers are too packed with people and not clean. The bunk bed is of low quality. Just wasted my money for no reason."
