We knew that this hotel was going to be on the edge of an industrial estate but it was a great location for us as we were able to get into the City easily via the bus which stopped 100m up the road and also there were 2 Metro stations nearby that were about a 15-20 min walk (or the bus stops nearby) There were plenty of cafes and shops just up the road in Newtown and it was a bit like Brunswick St in Melbourne. Also a really nice park (Sydney Park) nearby which we walked around too. The room was very comfortable, clean and not much noise from the Hotel downstairs (we were in Rm 8)

The only thing we hadn't realised was that the airplanes from the nearby airport would be flying so low and were so loud! There is an airport curfew and I think it was from 11pm to 6am so it didn't really affect us too much

Room had every thing we needed. Bed was really comfy. The staff were amazing, very polite and welcoming. Housekeeping did a great job, spotless and attentive! Conveniently one elevator ride down to a bar/restaurant with amazing food and decor. Lots of parking available anytime of the day.

Room was advertised as soundproof… was not soundproof. We could hear anyone who walked pass our door and people opening and closing their door. We had a small blurred window facing the hallway where you could see people walking pass and you could kind of see into the room from the outside we did have a blind though.

I liked the location, it wasn't really in the centre so it wasn't overly busy, but it wasn't super far away either, so it didn't take us forever to drive to the places we needed to go such as concert hall, Ikea, town centre, etc. It was very good price for money. Also, free parking in Sydney is GOLD.

I didn't like that the sink was inside the shower, it was very uncomfortable and hard to access. I also don't understand why there is never an option to just get a king bed instead of just joining two king singles and then having a sink in the middle.

It is a relatively quiet accommodation (considering there is a bar/pub downstairs). The place has access to lifts and room was spacious, it has all the toiletries except for a Dental Kit which they apparently do not provide. I havent been to the terrace, but by sighting it every time the lift door opens, i looks cool and a good atmosphere for creative minds. Bus stop is just foot steps away. Reasonably priced.

I should have done my research a bit more as even if the bus stop is very nearby, i still require transfers to other modes of transpo to get to the city or my place of conference, travel to the city and airport is about 35-40mins one way (give and take if buses show up on time)

Exceptional welcome from the staff, great spacious stylish room with a huge TV and a very comfortable bed. The pub has a great atmosphere and the food and cocktails are delicious. Very conveniently located, close to public transportation that will quickly get you to the center of Sydney and to the airport. I was initially worried about the noise because of the proximity to the airport and to a main road but it was not a problem at all, it's actually quiet at night. Wifi is fast. The water pressure in the shower is perfect. Again thank you to the staff for making our stay comfortable, I would definitely stay again.

The room was very clean and spacious. The bed was comfortable and the linen was great quality. The decor was good too. There’s a restaurant on site and the food was wonderful and good value. Happy hour selected beers on tap were $5! There’s a mini gaming room if you’re into that and looking for something to do without leaving the hotel. They have different events going on… quiz nights, karaoke etc.

The views not great but, remember you’re not in the middle of Sydney but 12 mins drive from the airport. Uber was $25. But all In all, the hotel was really good value and very clean!

It was close to the airport, staff was friendly and helpful. The guy let us drop our bags off early before 2pm check in beforing coming back to relaxed. Bed was so comfortable and clean.

The only thing was the chromcast wasn't connecting to the TV, it worked once after watching 1 episode then it stopped. Kept trying to refresh but still couldn't connect so gave up watching on TV.

I loved spending my days in Sydney at this hotel. The staff is very friendly, they have nice facilities and the cleanliness and order of their rooms left me very happy!

On Saturday night there was a party on the rooftop of the hotel, they told us it was going on until 12:00am and it really was until 12:40am and they made quite a lot of noise, this was the only thing I didn't like. (but the hotel manager gave us a voucher at the hotel restaurant for the inconvenience caused).

Big rooms with very comfortable beds and pillows and good showers. Rooms cleaned daily. Other areas of the hotel were very clean. Great food and well priced restaurant on site. Happy hour at the bar. Pleasant and friendly staff. Close to the airport.

The location is not close to a railway station, but the bus to the city is just across the road from the hotel. Located on a major highway and under flight path, so can be noisy, but for the price of the room, it was acceptable. There is no refrigerator in the room. This is an issue if you are having a longer stay.

We were pleasantly surprised by our rooms. We had stayed in more expensive accommodation and had filthy rooms before arriving at the southern cross hotel. Our rooms were clean, the whole hotel was clean and the lovely young lady that checked us in was super nice and incredibly helpful. We also had dinner in the bistro on our last night and when we arrived, we found out that it was 2 for 1 Tuesday on main meals so we paid half basically for beautiful snitzels. We would all stay here again. The linen was crispy clean and the staff were excellent 👌👍

The shower door didn't seem to want to close completely but it was totally fine to shower and no water went out if the shower.
