Siesta Sydney

Excellent location. I stayed for New Year Eve as my Circular quay NYE evening cruise left from Kings Wharf, which was 5 minute walk away. The hostel was very quiet and I notice that they even had a few free foods provided by the hostel. My double room had towels and tube of shampoo etc… there was a very good fan, table and chair. The bathroom was simple but clean. I was very happy. Lovely Air-Con in common area’s including reception.

Family matters took me to Sydney, stayed a couple days on own, booked for family next visit. Lovely reception, simple decor, absolutely spotless, room, common living, bathrooms etc. Free coffee tea mueseli, toast spreads fruit. Nice fellow guests, not a party place. Location terrific, lots of pubs and shops. Not at all fancy, but great value.

Great stay! There are so many things to like and love about this hotel despite the chaos we experienced on our way to find its location. It’s 15-20 min walk from the Wynyard Station, quite hilly, but definitely doable and fairly easy to locate as it’s near the junction. Check in was quick and easy. Staff was friendly and helpful to quickly brief us about the room and property. The hotel has a lift and wide stairs, certainly suitable for families travelling with kids, elderly parents, etc. Our room was located at the second floor; bed is comfy, room is tidy and clean, has a nice size for morning stretches or performing prayers for Muslims. The room comes with towels, hangers, shampoos, and body washes. Our floor has a lounge to watch TV, there are also iron and iron board. The kitchen is very interesting, there are microwave, stove, fridge, kettle, basic cooking utensils, and free stuffs (coffee, tea, sugar, jam, fruits, etc.) The bathrooms and showers are fine, there’s hot water. We are also very thankful for the free washers and dryers. Location wise, it’s perfect for sightseeing if you’re planning to go to The Rocks, Circular Quay area, CBD, Townhall area, etc.; everything is within 1-2km walking. If you need food, Coles, 7-11, marts, cafes are all just within few minutes walk, so definitely perfect for travelers and backpackers.

We stayed here for two nights recently and the bed linen was filthy . Our double doona that was meant to cover us on a queen bed was firstly too small and in no doona cover had brown stains on it resembling human fescues . It was disgusting 🤮

I stayed for 12 nights in a room on the 3rd floor with a Queen size bed. The location in the north-west corner of the Sydney CBD turned out to be good for some of the places I was going (State Theatre, Martin Place) while being away from the noise of the city centre. The room was big and comfortable with a writing table and chair, but the light switch is a long way from the bed, so after switching the light off I had a walk in the dark to the bed every night . I would suggest a power point near the bed that the table light could be plugged into. Not the greatest bathrooms but it is a budget hotel. There is a washing machine available free of charge, which was great but there was no washing powder. I didn't want to buy a big box from a supermarket so I asked at Reception. Eventually their cleaner helped me out with some powder. You should sell single-load tubs of powder like hostels do. The bad news - there is something very wrong with the fridge on the 3rd floor. I had 2 bottles of milk go off during my stay - the first time I put it down to bad luck but when it happened again to milk that was well short of its use-by date, I put it down to the fridge. I wasn't able to report this to Reception as it wasn't open when I was leaving the hotel early in the morning towards the end of my stay, or in the evening when I got back, so hopefully you'll read this review. I don't know what the problem is - it didn't feel particularly cold inside and maybe the seal isn't functioning on the door, but it needs looking at.

Came here with mates, and made a mistake with booking, canceled one room, and then ended up getting charged for it. Spoke to *********** about it said shouldn’t be charged. but still got charged for it, spoke to the front desk and response was that because it was canceled to late, nothing can be done, not happy that we needed up getting charged another room that we don’t need. No help from *********** about this issue wouldn’t recommend to anyone
