Welcoming staff and very high-quality compared to most pub accommodation in Sydney.
02.02.2026 Irene
It was above a hotel with trams running beside the Hotel. But we didn't hear any noise at all.
29.01.2026 Leigh
The room was spacious and bed very comfortable. The location was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
14.01.2026 Rosalinda
Yes it's amazing place to stay everything is convenient.
I'm very please with the room comfortable and spacious .
03.01.2026 Roydon
Local pub near work in Surry Hills. Good lunch specials for $18, food is pretty good for the price too. Bar staff are great. Can get busy on concert nights at one of the stadiums due to it's proximity to central station. I'm my opinion, the best of the 3 pubs working 20 metres of each other.
03.12.2025 Pam
If I had been given the chance to see the rooms, or at least the reception area, I could provide a fair opinion. But no. My husband and I made the reservation for Friday, November 28th, and completed the pre-check-in the day before. We had already planned our entire Friday morning.
Upon arriving at the 'hotel,' surprise! There was no access whatsoever. There is no visible door for the reception (if one even exists), and I had to knock persistently on a window for the person inside to finally attend to me.
The shock grew when we were told we had to wait outside on the street with our luggage until 10 AM, which is their official opening time. We had contacted the hotel previously to arrange an early drop-off for our bags, but they never mentioned we would be left waiting outside the property for hours.
This lack of access and service forced us to contact Booking.com immediately. Since we could not wait on the street, we were forced to secure and pay for a second hotel.
I was willing to pay a cancellation fee or an equivalent charge, but I requested a refund for the unused reservation.
Ultimately, Booking.com did not resolve the issue. We ended up paying for a second hotel, and no one took responsibility or offered any compensation for this completely unacceptable situation

Very helpful and friendly staff, good value for the location
26.11.2025 Denis
Checked in and 1st room aircon did not work. Eventually changed to different room. Much bigger than original room which had a very tiny bathroom. Both rooms had been newly renovated but walking down hallway felt and sounded like the floor was going to collapse. Staff were friendly but not professional. Very overpriced for what it is but prices seemed inflated for AC/DC concert dates.
22.11.2025 Kylie
Very happy with my stay and will be back. Staff were courteous and professional, good security, room was very clean and comfortable
14.11.2025 Chris
Room was neat, clean and quiet. Good location. The security code access system worked well.
The A/C unit did not work as it should as it did not cool the room and would shut down after a few minutes if set to "Cool" mode. Fan mode worked. As windows are sealed closed the room did get very hot and stuffy.

Very bad sandwich artists, she told me if you want sandwich it's going with few salads. She told subways standard allows 4 tomato slices.... it seems they are not properly trained. Very rude even don't toasted patty in toaster using patty option , we know bcz we are regular customers of subway. But it's my first experience with this store who charges for extra salads.

26.07.2017 Laurian
Service is good, good atmosphere but average food, small servings and overly expensive for the size of portion and quality of food
09.07.2017 David
Nice, little, crowded place to go to for an Australian-Italian meal. Bookings is highly suggested. Great selection of Italian wines! "Vini" means wines in Italian.
11.06.2017 Declan
It was ok - nice atmosphere and friendly staff, but frankly the food wasn't great (had the lamb), serving size small / especially for the price.
10.06.2017 Elvira
How does this place stay opened? The table next to us arrived 15 minutes after us and got two of the their plates before we were served our first and that was after we complained!
The wine by the glass, a grand selection of 8 wines only. And exhorbatantly priced! I thought the staff and management were arrogant and I was unimpressed with the way they responded to my concerns in serving preferences between tables and with then with the overcooked bonito that was served well before the contorno was served! The Management was arrogant and unprofessional and purported himself to be half Italian however it was obvious his Italian heritage was not apparent with his hospitality skill sets! Further the food experience was nothing short of amateurish ! I would happily allocate zero stars if I could!
05.05.2017 Perrine
I never write negative reviews but the food is tasteless and expensive. It's a shame because the place is very nice and intimate.
