- eec08a2b08af73def540b3c3e5ec29c5 (8/5): Pobyt super a w hotelu kilka rzeczy do poprawki - mimo wszystko bardzo polecam obiekt - Atmosfera Niewygodnie urządzony pokój i łazienka - wszystko bardzo ładne ale nie zawsze funkcjonalne. W łazience wszystko piękne ale trudno się umyć w umywalce i brak solidnego oświetlenia.
- 749079805170703c7e645b19ee86cb05 (10/5): It was wonderful, relaxing, and I felt like I was spoiling myself. - The room was perfect, the staff incredible - friendly and professional. The amenities were amazing. I was looking for a place to pamper myself on my last night in Australia and I couldn't have picked a better hotel. There was no lift/elevator. That wasn't a bad thing, really. I worked it out to leave my largest suitcase downstairs in their storage because I really didn't need anything in it and I didn't want to drag it up the stairs.
- cbdef8f0f0ec72de5e6540a1b2578025 (10/5): - Very nice place to stay, great and informative staff. Room clan and tidy, great location We drove to Sydney, as a tourist not aware of the parking issues. We got a ticket while we were unloading our cases. BEAWARE BE CAREFUL
- b8ab77548d85711f99ada555b537b97f (10/5): Easy, comfortable, clean and great location. - The location was perfect for our overnight visit to Sydney. The room was delightful, fun decor and the bed was so comfortable. Great communication from the hotel and ease of checkin and out. Highly recommend.
Thanks Nothing

- ffd09aaef56d714a5bf568f3903ace9b (7/5): Nice boutique hotel however we might call it a guest house as no bar no cafe area . No lift . - The style , the furnishings No bar and often nobody at reception
- 519637de467c713c036fc7b32ef88cd4 (10/5): - Erg lief personeel, gezellig geweest
- 5b9cea886de97225322e03468971e793 (10/5): Great boutique hotel with good quality amenities. Very comfy bed. - Location, great boutique hotel. N/a
- NAHunt (9/5): Sydney 5 nights - We liked everything, the rooms and hotel design is lovely, the staff were extremely helpful, the rooms were clean, bright, spacious and colourful. The location is excellent, bars, cafes, train all nearby, walk to the harbour through the botanic gardens 30 mins, would recommend to anyone.
- Nick (10/5): Thoughtful, well-designed, and very well executed. - Excellent boutique hotel. Very well appointed, beautifully designed, some really thoughtful touches and spotlessly clean. Location is great for walking around Sydney too. Nothing much. Everything was catered for very well.
- jennifer (10/5): -
- Annemarija (10/5): Absolutely amazing - hands down my best stay in Sydney. - Everything Nothing
- Maggie (8/5): Might stay again but be very choosy about the room - Good bed .
Staff tried to find an alternate room- gave us a bottle of wine as compensation
Good quality teas Our room was downstairs and very cold small nowhere comfortable to sit - not what I expected.
They said it was because I only booked on Booking .com
- Jody (9/5): -
- Louisa (9/5): Lovely, friendly place. Darlinghurst very social and attractive buildings with great cafe culture. - We had a huge room. We like interesting places and this was that. Loved the decor, the shower, the bed, the seating area, the fridge and the birthday rosé. Staff super friendly. Our room was ground floor so we did have some noise from Reception behind our bed head, the courtyard and footsteps upstairs. Would be fine if you’re good with earplugs in the morning or an early riser yourself.
- Mark (10/5): -
- florence (10/5): Magnifique séjour.Bel endroit.ambiance calme - Deco magnifique.chambre belle et grande.accueille génial.il y a même des petites glaces offertes dans le patio.Produits de bain de qualité.quartier super. Rien
- Alexandra (10/5): -
- Magdalena (9/5): Peaceful , airy , classy respite - We absolutely loved our stay here. From the initial booking, to all our questions and changes, the hotel staff were extremely professional and kind. We would love to stay here again.
Our spacious room, with a queen-sized bed, was clean and tidy, and the mattress on the bed itself was firm and all too comfortable.
It was very convenient to have a sink and a mini fridge in the room, with a separate sink in the bathroom.
Very high design, which, as it goes, can often be inconvenient for actual use. Like any hotel room, it needs more places to hang clothing and bags, both in the bathroom, and in the room itself. Lighting, however, thankfully, was ample. We loved the Aēsop bath products, and they Dyson hairdryer, and the cushy robes…
The courtyard outside proved and pleasant sitting area.
Though Darlinghurst is known to be a bit lively, at night it’s quite calm and peaceful here. Like any hotel room, it needs more places to hang clothing and bags, both in the bathroom, and in the room itself.
- BIAO (10/5): - 入住服务以及装修 床品的舒适度
- Arnaud (10/5): Séjour d'une semaine à Sydney - Hôtel situé à Darlinghurst, un quartier sympa de Sydney.
La chambre était vraiment très jolie, propre et bien équipée.
Il y a pas mal de café autour pour prendre un petit-déjeuner le matin, mais c'est aussi possible de se faire thé ou café directement dans la chambre.
Très bel endroit.
- Meaghan (10/5): -
- Antje (10/5): Awesome boutique hotel - We stayed at the velvet suite - what a beautiful room
- Sam (9/5): -
- Sam (10/5): A perfect stay - Loved the room and the aspect and the very friendly staff.
- Jodie (10/5): -
- Deborah (10/5): We felt welcome and comfortable. The ambience of the Medusa made us feel like locals as we walked around the neighbourho - Location and its quirky decor. Nothing.
- Oscar (10/5): -
- Lachlan (10/5): -
- Taylah (10/5): Wonderful stay here, the room is super cute. Staff are lovely - Clean, has so much character and is not just a regular hotel feeling Nothing
- Mark (10/5): -
- Claus (9/5): Excellentes Hotel für Individualreisende und einen City-Trip - Sehr gute Lage in Darlinghurst, so dass man zu Fuß zur Opera und ins Zentrum gehen kann. Gemütliche Umgebung in einem tollen toleranten und offenen Stadtteil!
Das kleine und feine Hotel wurde von den neuen Eigentümern wenige Monate zuvor saniert und mit viel Liebe zum Detail hochwertig ausgestattet!
- Sigourney (1/5): - This property is so rude and completely acceptable
- Oonagh (10/5): We will return, but for a longer stay next time. - It’s quirky, vibrant, different from the average hotels you find. Very close to cafes and restaurants and a 5 minute walk to St Vincent hospital. Nothing.
- Sven (10/5): -
- joe (9/5): Really relaxing time - Loved the vibe of the place and the staff were very friendly
- FREDERIC (9/5): -
- Neil (10/5): - Awesome staff, lovely room, top location
- Margrit (10/5): Super Preis Leistungs Verhältnis - Ein kleines Hotel in einem sehr lebendigen spannenden Quartier. Super Restaurant und Bars in der Umgebung. Gute Anbindung mit U-Bahn oder auch zu Fuss um in die Stadt zu kommen. Die Staff vom Hotel war freundlich und hilfsbereit. Haben uns gute Tips gegeben. Immer gerne wieder.
- Lorene (10/5): It was absolutely exquisite and delightful they have definitely put so much thought into every detail it’s adorable - Everything it was exquisite and unique and just superb Not 1 thing not to like
- Michael (1/5): A complete and total disappointment. Very misleading. - Nothing. The description of this facility was extremely misleading. Our room was extremely small. The room description was “a deluxe queen “ and there was nothing deluxe about this room. The closet was too small to be usable. There was only room for a single suitcase to be opened but nowhere to unpack it. The description describes “a well fitted kitchenette and meals can be prepared there” but there is nothing like that. A very small countertop with a small microwave, coffee maker and a very small refrigerator. Over the years I have stayed at many places and chose this because of the description and high ratings. This was the worse I have ever experienced and they were unwilling to give even a partial refund. We moved to another hotel because this was so small. Buyer beware of this property.
- King (9/5): -
- Claire (9/5): -
- Trevor (10/5): Would definitely stay again - Decor & individuality of the rooms. Cleanliness was top notch as were the staff who couldn’t do enough for you. Nothing to dislike we would definitely stay again. Good location lots of bars & eateries near by & within walking distance to the botanical gardens 30 mins Not a dislike as it didn’t apply to us but there is no lift. That said if you needed one just say & they would probably sort you out with a ground floor room
- Roberta (10/5): Just loved my stay in The Medusa Hotel. Public transport was really easy to get anywhere I wanted to go. This place is a - Such a wonderful quirky hotel - if you like whimsy, good clean rooms and fantastic customer service this is your place!! The stairs were daunting but not a problem because the staff were always available to lend a hand
- Kerri (10/5): -
- Taryn (10/5): On a brief getaway to celebrate my husband’s milestone birthday, we could not have asked for a more perfect place. - The property was fabulous. It was in a great location, spectacularly decorated and the staff were just beyond beautiful. Nothing.
- Steven (10/5): -
- zhize (10/5): -
- Alisson (8/5): -
- Francesca (10/5): Fabulous stay! Amazing staff, lovely clean room and excellent position to local transport to explore the city. - From the minute we pulled up in the taxi and they immediately took care of our heavy luggage to the moment we left, the staff were absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much trouble.
The hotel was really interesting and quirky and the room was lovely and so clean.
Facilities were excellent with all the usual things but dressing gowns, microwave, ironing board all thrown in.
Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it. 🤗 Maybe a larger surface around the bathroom sink for wash bags etc. 🤷🏻♀️

- Natasha (9/5): -
- Daniele (9/5): -
- Jonathan (9/5): -
- Hazel (10/5): Love it! - The location is perfect - close to everything but still nice and quiet.
The room was beautiful and so well appointed. The air con was awesome on the 32° days!
The Aesop bathroom products smelt so good.
The staff were so helpful and accommodating when we needed to slightly change plans. The only teeny tiny eeeny weeny issue was that there was a used coffee pod in the coffee/tea dish when we arrived.
And personally, I didn't trust the seal on the water bottles provided so we just didn't use them - but it was a nice gesture.
