“Superb stay”

Really I can't say anything bad about this hotel. It had everything I needed during my stay while caring for family in the hospital up the road from the hotel. 20 minute train ride to the city, free parking and a short walk to the Great Northern Hotel.

Really I can't say anything bad about this hotel. It had everything I needed during my stay while caring for family in the hospital up the road from the hotel. 20 minute train ride to the city, free parking and a short walk to the Great Northern Hotel. I stayed here for 5 nights and made use of the gym facilities, laundry and a visit to the pool if I felt inclined. Friendly and helpful staff and the hotel is well kept, clean and tidy.

“Fantastic value”

This place is not the fanciest hotel you could stay at, but it is far from the most expensive also. This place is GREAT value for money. It's slightly awkward getting in and out of as it's on the highway and you have to turn around and all, but it is within walking distance to Artarmon train statio… more

This place is not the fanciest hotel you could stay at, but it is far from the most expensive also. This place is GREAT value for money. It's slightly awkward getting in and out of as it's on the highway and you have to turn around and all, but it is within walking distance to Artarmon train station, there are bus stops out the front, and close enough to catch the wonderful cab services who were very courteous taking us to our dinner engagements. As mentioned it's not the fanciest hotel, but it is clean, in good repair, the lobby is inviting, and key pick-up was easy. That I suppose is the new way with COVID. Reception shuts at 1:00PM, the doors lock then, and the restaurant is closed. But none of these things were any issue at all for us.

“Wish I could rate more due to the staff! But the hotel really needs a few things looked at”

The pictures online do not reflect the hotel, The staff are great from checkin to checkout including cleaners :) The hallways when getting off lifts you can straight away smell the musty smell from the old dirty carpet and the dust everywhere ( would be better ripping it all up including rooms and laying floorboards if the upkeep of the carpets cant be met. The rooms need new carpet in all they are disgusting or just do plain floorboards for easy cleaning. The showers need proper cleans because of mould and built up scum in grout. Toilets are perfect! BBQ needs cooking utensils ( even if they are chained to the BBQ) and bins. there is nowhere in the hotel to get rid of any rubbish and that was especially hard when it came to us using the BBQ one night while staying over the week. We had two rooms for a weeks stay and the rooms were serviced daily which was great! They are only getting quick wipe overs because i'm assuming it is a big hotel and not enough cleaners they seemed to be run off their feet, The were always lovely and i did feel for them having to try and do it all when they cant be doing full cleans which really needs to be done so then they can keep them up to the standards they should be kept at. We did not pick the cheapest hotel to stay for our week in Sydney and the money we did pay i honestly didn't expect the carpets in the rooms to be the way they were or the dirty showers. We would 100% stay again if the rooms were updated ( flooring ) and the showers given a proper clean. The location of the hotel is great being so close to the CBD and was great for us for the NYE fireworks going to and from. The staff are a credit to this hotel for sure and hopefully the owners read these reviews and maybe have a look into the flooring and the deep cleaning needed in the showers so its easier for their cleaners to upkeep and nicer for the visitors.
