"This hotel is in the middle of the city and is conveniently located to everything. 15min walk to Sydney Harbour and 5min walk to Darling Harbour. Room size was decent. The bed was so comfy and the room was clean. If I had to complain about anything (which is out of the hotel’s control) is the loud cars driving by. Definitely a great stay with friendly staff. "

"We got a small room with a big bed, large TV, private bathroom and spacious private balcony. The front desk service is excellent, as each employee is very kind, helpful, and give you complimentary chocolates upon arrival. There was a working elevator up to our floor, and with the windows closed, it was surprisingly quiet for being in the middle of the city except for the occasional ambulance and frequent church bells. We only had one neighboring room slam their doors and talk in the hallway once...

"Hotel was in a great location, close to transport and a walk to Darling Harbour. Rooms were nice thought the sofa was very worn and the TV channels didn’t change easily. Beds were comfy and had nice bathroom with lovely amenities. We had a La carte breakfast on our morning in their restaurant and the service was average as they were understaffed. The pancakes were terrible and coffee not great. We didn’t eat there again. Overall it was a good stay and value for money."

How can I get cheap hotels in Sydney?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Sydney

  1. If you're looking to travel to Sydney on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $54. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $165. Staying a short amount of time in Sydney is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.

  2. When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Sydney, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.

  3. When booking cheap hotel rooms in Sydney, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.

  4. When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Sydney, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.
