Concert attendees love the quiet, laid-back atmosphere after a high-energy night. The hotel’s soundproof rooms are especially appreciated by guests looking to actually rest after a show. While not located in the heart of Sydney, it’s close enough—just a 25-minute drive to the city center, making it a smart pick for those with a car or ride-share plans.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends road-tripping to a Sydney show

Food and Drink Options

The hotel doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, but there are plenty of eateries nearby along Victoria Road. You're never far from a late-night bite or a casual brunch. While there's no 24/7 room service, in-room tea and coffee-making facilities and a mini fridge help with late-night cravings. Breakfast options are just a short stroll or drive away—perfect after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer nightlife or live music, its location makes it a great home base for heading into the city or nearby suburbs for bars and live venues. After the show, retreat back to the hotel’s quieter setting—a welcome contrast if you’ve been partying all night.

What People Say

Guests rave about the peaceful setting, especially those with rooms overlooking the golf course. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and helpful staff feature frequently in reviews. Many mention the great value for money and the reliable air conditioning as a big plus after a hot concert night.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the decor could use a refresh, and those without a car might find the location slightly remote. There’s also no lift, so travelers with heavy bags may want to request a ground-floor room.
