- Abeysinghe (4/5): -
- Reuben (8/5): -
- ashleigh (8/5): -
- Amy (10/5): - So welcoming, great staff, good atmosphere, food and cocktails were great, rooms are always clean, comfortable and have a modern aesthetic. Nothing was too much trouble for staff, extra blankets provided as it was a cool night. Free parking out the back. Great location. Great prices. We have stayed many times and booked again for our next Sydney trip to stay here again in a few months. Nothing

- Giuseppe (7/5): -
- Ian (8/5): -
- Dennis (10/5): -
- Harm-Jan (8/5): local history and good food - Location and surrounding neighbourhood facilities Shower drains in suites can have sharp edges, depending on floor your on (shared facilities)
- Bronwyn (8/5): Great value - Great location Bathroom had no soap in the container
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Melissa (9/5): - Great location and get old pub feel. Really cool to stay upstairs. Love the tall ceilings and the balcony which you can watch the world go by Air conditioning was set to hot couldn't change it
- Buckley (7/5): Love the old building and the area. - It’s historic. Willoughby rd is a bit noisy.
- Billy (10/5): -
- Allison (8/5): Will definitely come back, such a friendly hotel, bistro was great, all round a great stay. - Friendliness Shower gel dispenser in the bathroom doesn’t work.
Extra water in room on second day would have been helpful
- Munro (10/5): -
- Abby Maee (4/5): - Lost of space Not the cleanest
- Passang (7/5): -
- Nicolas (2/5): Unfit for purpose - mangement issues - seeking reimbursement - Nice carpet. Very comfortable when you have to sleep on the floor 😂💀 I’ll keep it short — unfit for purpose, seeking reimbursement
We booked two rooms for the kids and us
It was a stinking hot night and the Airconditioning units, despite being set at the lowest temperature, barely provided us with air that was less hot than outside air (probably still 30 degrees in the room!) - when asked about it all the staff could says was that the aircon units were all sharing one compressor on the roof. Clearly under dimensioned for the Australian conditions
At some point we switched the fan light on, an then the remote completely stopped working (not a battery issu. We were not able to switch the light off, or reach the ceiling fan (too high) to unscrew the light bulb, so my wife decided to sleep here anyway with a pillow on their head, and I went to sleep on the floor in the kids room so I wouldn’t have a bright white light in my face…
Shared toilet stunk badly and door wouldn’t stay closed, bathroom smelled a bit of mould
Staff was nice enough with all the issues we had, but it seems like they are fighting with management about a whole lot of issues.
We called next day after checking out, to seek reimbursement which is being processed (still!). Absolut travesti of an experience (besides the fund story we now share with the kids). Next time we spend $100 more and stay in the city in a decent hotel. For $400 you can stay at the Shangri La in a much better room than this!!
- Kim (7/5): - Restaurant Shared bathroom
- TRRECO Pte.Ltd. (3/5): -
- Angela (7/5): Good accommodation - Loved everything The bathrooms were not cleaned during our 2 night stay particularly the sink and toilets were dirty
- Cassandra (7/5): -
- Joel (1/5): - No tv work very hot in that room I want refund
- Lee Seong (7/5): Generally okay - Location ) Aircond old and squeaky, pls get it changed to a new one
2) room door no. 16 squeaky when open or close disturbing other hotel guests , kindly lubricate those door joints with oil
3) carpets outside doorway kindly vacuum and aromatise them to have a fresh indoor fragrance , smells old and unhealthy now , better still change to new carpets !
4) cleaner kitchen and fridge
5) directions where to return room key and check out if earlier than 10am
Will be very grateful if the above steps are taken to improve guests stay cos we will come again !
Much thanks !
- Harm-Jan (6/5): - Great location and clean rooms with friendly staff Room that I stayed in had a faulty AC, and the hotel was full so could not be moved… was unfortunately als a very hot / humid day and might…
- Terry (10/5): -
- Milton (1/5): - Good location and staff were very helpful to try and make us comfortable. The aircon did not work, it was such a hot room struggle to get to sleep.
- Mar (8/5): -
- Sarah (3/5): Terribly unclean but friendly - Great convenient location and the staff are friendly. The aircon didn’t work properly so I could not sleep. The room was also dirty - bits of rubbish on the ground, a weird stain on the curtain above the bed and a film of dust on the carpet. No toilet paper in the toilets either.
- Meritxell (7/5): -
- Reuben (9/5): Very comfortable and great value - Room and bed were super comfortable beautiful calm place to stay and nice and quiet. Enjoyed the terrace outside too. Staff were lovely and really helpful. So helpful to have a kitchen. Kitchen was a bit dirty, had a weird smell to it depending on who was here at the time. It would've been nice to have a small bar fridge but that's neither here nor there.
- Marjorie (1/5): -
- Harm-Jan (8/5): -
- Ross (2/5): It was the worst stay I have had in the hotel and I doubt that I will use it again. At least the restaurant was satisfac - Location and restaurant Dreadful lack of attention given to basic services - in particular, NO toilet paper in one of the two upstairs toilets and NO air conditioning working in my room on a very hot night. Then there are 50 stairs to climb to the bedrooms on the top floor - not easy for someone like me who is in my eighties.
- Nam (7/5): - 整潔到OK 冷氣唔凍
- Mariana (1/5): Terrible - Just the location. The AC was not working at all in both of the rooms. I complain about this with the manager, and he said that the hotel was full, so he didn’t have anything to do it. Besides that, the fan was not working as well. It was really hot inside the room and terrible to sleep.
Also, the shower area was dirty and with mould.
- Michael (10/5): - Clean Nothing
- Christine (8/5): Great apart from above details. - Great apart from shared toilet/bathroom Shared toilet/bathroom
- Cox (10/5): - Every thing the staff were so nice . The Manager the nicest guy and helpfull.

- zainal abidin (10/5): -
- Nigel (8/5): A nice, clean heritage location to stay at - Rooms are smallish, but neat and well-presented. There wasn't a little fridge, not essential, but nice to have.
- Grace (7/5): - The food was good and the staff were lovely The cockroach in between my pillows on the bed
Individual toiletries would feel a lot more hygienic. We didn't use the ones provided.

- Amy (8/5): Very convinent and easy -
- Jamie (10/5): -
- Liang Sheng (8/5): Budget hotels - friendly staff No mini fridge
Matress made skin itching
- Sara (10/5): Great value for money , excellent staff - Price location facilities and staff Air con was on a timer and went off at night when it was super hot still but otherwise everything was great
- Liang Sheng (8/5): -
- Marlene (8/5): -
- Nicola (8/5): Great stay, amazing staff! - Great location, very affordable. The shared amenities are a little old and run down.
- Eirik Håskoll (10/5): -
- Niki (6/5): - Friendly staff and good location Shared bathroom was not clean, there was a hole in our fitted sheet, AC was not working
- Lilian (10/5): -
- Peter (8/5): -
- Mathew (8/5): -
- Joseph James Uel (5/5): - Great location It was a heatwave, and the AC was locked on timer and switched off every 15 minutes. It was too late when we entered our room to chase it up with the manager - everything else was fine.
- Ghazaleh (6/5): -
- Andrew (2/5): Fool me once, Fool me twice- I'm an Idiot for giving a second chance. - Room clean, beds good. I'm stupid. Why did I expect any difference the second visit. More fool me.
28 Degrees in the room. Last time the main light didn't work and there were no kettles or bar fridges in the room.
Not sure how you are expected to take you cup downstairs, fill it with boiling water and the carry it up stairs to your locked room. Still no kettles in rooms. But there are cups and coffee sachets- no milk again. Did bother asking at the bar if there was any milk in the hotel following last trips "no". Just gave up.
And now for the kicker- On a predicted heat wave weekend the air con does not work. Response from manager- "I reset the switch" She was then able to observe with me no change. This was at 12:30am by this stage. Was I offered another room? NO. Was I offered any compensation? NO. She just shrugged her shoulders and left. Not sure people staying in my accommodations would accept that.
Oh yeah, I also had to wait 1/2 hour while the TV ran through a tune as it only got radio when I arrived. So much for a recovery sleep after a long work day and 5 hours driving on top.
Hopefully I won't be stupid a 3rd time!
- Debora (8/5): -
- Ashleyf89 (10/5): Surprisingly Great Experience - I expected the worst, but this place definitely exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed. The outdoor area was perfect on the hot day we visited, with plenty of space for the kids to play. The bathrooms are a bit old, but that’s to be expected in an older pub
- Alessia (10/5): -
- Michael (5/5): -
- Andrew (5/5): Ordinarily - Not much Was like a boarding house
- Kristen (7/5): -
- Ella (5/5): - Conveniently located on the bus line. Clean linen Overpriced room, considering there is only a share bathroom. The facilities are quite old.
The overflowing dirty towels basket made me wonder whther the share bathroon had been cleaned that morning.
The kettle could only be refilled in the share bathroom
- Grace (8/5): Would definitely stay here again - Very easy to get into the city via bus (or bus to Chatswood then catch the train to the city). The staff were all lovely. I didn’t hear any of the pub patrons during my stay. I was provided with tea/coffe sachets, but no kettle? Not sure if I was supposed to go down to the bar to get it?
- FREDERIC (9/5): - Le personnel est très serviable. Le restaurant propose des menus corrects. Notre chambre donnait sur une terrasse parfois bruyante. Les salles de bain commune ne sont pas très propres.
- Toru (1/5): -
- MICHAEL (3/5): I was only there to sleep. The staff were very friendly. - The room was clean but it had a smell about it.
I was not impressed that when I got to the room on the Saturday night my door was open and the light was on. Having to share the bathroom and toilet
- Lisa (8/5): -
- Melita (9/5): Relaxing pub stay central to northern Sydney area. - Great hotel to enjoy & easy to access city bus route out front. Parking there. Beautiful walk to historical Incinerator Cafe for coffee & cake. Key access for after hours entry easy. -NA-
- angelina (10/5): -
- Rodney (4/5): Location perfect staff good enough old style building expectations where modest it equalled those ex - Location was perfect close to Chatswood city by service excellent The air conditioning unit was rubbish when you need it in hot days fan only does do much fan not clean filter needed cleaning I told a staff member day 2 of 14 I was there never got cleaned it was choking on fluff maybe a. Girt cut not to gave it serviced regularly poor job
- Travis (8/5): - Great clean quiet room with good food downstairs
- Ross (7/5): Met my expectations. - Good restaurant and location Too many stairs to climb for an 80year old person. Would much rather been on a lower floor.
- Michaela (1/5): Terrible - The staff tried to make up for the poor accommodation but ultimately failed to bring the standard I was led to expect The room looked nothing like what was there. The room was dirty, there was a terrible smell in the living areas, there was no desk as promised and the shared facilities were old and not clean. The air conditioning did not work and the fans were useless.
- barra (10/5): -
- Yvette Burtenshaw (10/5): - Exceptional service and Facilities - Beautiful rooms and Facilites - Meals Ok - Room includes Brealfast and a very comfortable living lounge area. Just a lovely place to stay when I need to work at Nth Sydney
- Darlene (8/5): Close to the concourse to see Dave Rubin - Room was good, and there was a shared kitchen so I could heat up some food
The food in the bistro downstairs was great, and I was close to public transport
Its not the Ritz, but the place is clean and good when ur on a budget Shared bathroom, wish I had a room with a private 1 ,but I got what I paid for.
Also, it got a bit noisy with the pub being under the accommodation, but it stop at a reasonable time.
Also bed could of had a better mattress ,but it was fair
- Jacqueline (6/5): Pleasant and comfortable but noisy - Comfortable bed no fridge
- Jacqueline (9/5): - The service was great. Josh was very friendly and nothing was a problem. Rooms were comfortable. Worrying about forgetting my key when using the facilities in the middle of the night.
- Kellie (4/5): Great location, unfortunately that's all - Location was great. You get what you pay for. Whilst the location was great, that's where it stops. Some bleach or exit mould in the bathrooms wouldn't go astray. Don't be fooled by the photos it's not like that at all. No personal toiletries in the room, there were 3 of us and only 2 towels (whilst the staff were great providing extra, the booking was for 3 people), no sugar in the room and the kettle still had water in it from God knows when. One of the blinds had come down and just been shoved on top of the wardrobe, told staff and we were met with "oh yeah that happened a few days ago don't worry we won't charge you for it", so the sun beamed in Early hours of the morning straight on to our trying to sleep child. The windows were covered in mould and when you opened them they opened out to the smoker's balcony. Sorry, but we won't be back 😢

- Justin (8/5): -
- Tulio (8/5): -
- Petra (6/5): - This property is above the pub. The room is spacious and comfortable. Good for a short stay. The room was next to the smoker's balcony so there were people smoking early in the morning which isn't great for a non smoker. The fan in the toilet doesn't switch off and is really noisy especially at night.
- Mitio (8/5): - Clean rooms and friendly staff
- Aaron Joshua (5/5): -
- Bradley (8/5): - Clean & comfortable. Staff are fantastic.
