Frommer's "This is the coziest place to stay in The Rocks, and perhaps in all of Sydney." Full review
Fodor's "For charm, character, and central location, it's hard to beat this ornate Victorian hotel." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A lovely oldfashioned hotel sits above a historic pub, the Fortune of War."
Time Out "With a great location in the middle of the Rocks... the Russell still somehow manages to feel more like a cosy country B&B than a city-centre hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "A small hotel with popular shared-bathroom rooms, plus en-suite options; the priciest have views of Circular Quay."

Time Out "This European-style bed and breakfast and has only nine rooms so book well in advance." Full review
Rough Guide "Small hotel (just 9 rooms), reminiscent of a pleasant European pension, with a friendly owner and small and very clean, if slightly dated, a/c rooms."
Fodor's "In its character as well as its dimensions, this friendly B&B on a quiet part of a bar- and club-lined street is reminiscent of a European pensione." Full review
Lonely Planet "Hotel 59 is good bang for your buck on the quiet part of Bayswater Rd, with nouveau-Med rooms and smiley staff who go out of their way not to get in your way." Full review
Frommer's "This popular and friendly B&B is well worth considering if you want to be near the Kings Cross action but far enough away to get a decent night's sleep." Full review
