Cari Hotel 2-Bintang di Sydney

Amazing location for business travellers. Very cheap for this area, but you get what you pay for. Have low expectations and you will be right. I plan to go back.

I stayed the night before I was doing the City2Surf run as it is literally a 5 minute walk to the start line and it was a great price compared to hotels in the city. Once I had booked I received a confirmation stating that bags could not be held and check out was 10am and the code to open my door would be changed. That was a bit of a nuisance as I knew I would probably get back from the race at around 10.30/11. Thankfully I had a friend staying in Sydney so I took my bag to his hotel the night before and wore home just what I was wearing to race the next day. The room itself was very clean and tidy and well presented. The only thing I would like to see done is for them to put in a kettle with tea/coffee. It would be minimal outlay for them but would make someone’s stay just a little more pleasant. Being above the pub you obviously had noise but, honestly, for me it wasn’t that bad and I got a good nights sleep. Shared toilet and bathrooms on each floor and kept clean. I would stay here again for the race if I could secure a slightly later check out 😃

A fabulous old historic hotel in the heart of the Sydney CBD offering very affordable accommodation. The Occy features a lively, high-quality restaurant on Level 1 and a Bistro in the back bar, so food offerings are outstanding. The hotel has undergone recent renovations but they have lovingly maintained the heritage of this grand old pub. Keep in mind that this is pub-style accommodation at affordable rates and you will love this place.

We stayed for two nights at this hotel for a reunion with friends. Very clean and comfortable at a very reasonable price. The young gentleman named Prakash at reception was very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.

I would have rated this 2 stars but the good customer service puts it to 3. Basically the design of the place is terrible. There is only a single shower and a single toilet to share between about 4-5 rooms. And the single toilet is within the same room as the shower! which means if another guest takes a shower you are locked out of toilet access until they’re out (imagine if someone takes an hour to get ready in the bathroom!). Furthermore, if you have to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, you have to go out into the common corridor which is brightly lit 24/7 thereby waking not only you up, but also waking your partner up as the light floods into the room & the door is very loud opening/closing. The room is also tiiiiny. We were initially booked 4 nights but asked to leave after 2 nights because these issues were causing us to have bad sleep and not enjoy our stay. To their credit, they organised a refund for the remaining nights. The location of the place is good, near shops and cafes. But we rebooked at a Meriton suites which was only slightly more expensive but so much more comfortable and better value.

Room 20 Family ensuite rm - hotel is really convenient to Train Station and eat street in Strafield. Plenty of dinning options close by. Checkin was easy. Room was very basic. Appeared clean but very tired. Decor old (not historic old), ensuite pretty run down. TV didn’t work and old aircon was effective but a little noisy. Beds were truely awful. We suspect very old and cheap (could feel the springs) and extremely uncomfortable. Some noise from the hotel and bottle shop, but manageable. Won’t opt to stay here again.

Hands down worst nights sleep Ive ever had away from home. I arrived late from an interstate flight. The code I was given to get into the front door didn’t work. I tried half a dozen times. It was night, I was a solo small female and tbh I was starting to feel a little scared. Fortunately someone walked out of the building and let me in. The code to key collection worked and I went upstairs to my room. Now if u have heavy luggage this is not the place for you. Think European hotels with no lifts! Same same! The room itself was nice. Bathroom and toilet are not part of your room. It’s a seperate room. For everyone! Shared. That’s fine unless you get a case of bali belly! I guess this is all due to the age of the building. Renovated and lovely mind you. Problem I had is the bathroom was the door next to my bedroom and with a two inch gap under my door my room was excessively noisy with the opening and banging of all doors and especially the bathroom. That door was on constant rotation. Then I could hear the shower going. All up I think I got no more than 2-3 hours sleep. Only choice is bring ear buds or the hotel should provide them complimentary! Worst night sleep I’ve had in any hotel across the globe. Room was very clean, as were the amenities, staff seemed lovely. In daylight area felt fine. I suspect rather alternative and trendy bring a non Sydneysider myself. At the price and cleanliness I’d recommend but bring good quality ear buds!

I stayed at this hotel with my wife as part of our honeymoon. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the owner: An elderly gentleman by the name of Andrew, He was welcoming and generous: When we were shown to our room, he then offered us a bigger room. He even offered us a lift to Darling Harbour the following morning and, upon request, arranged a TV for our room. The place itself is rich in history. I always love staying in historical buildings and this one is one of the best. It has the sense of age & place and it there is something to be said to be staying at a place with such a historical feel behind it. The rooms are well furnished and the beds we used were indeed comfortable. Indeed a classy place to stay
