Lonely Planet "Say goodbye to contemporary blah design and hello to Aussie charm at this hotel in the heart of The Rocks." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms here are above one of Sydney’s most historic pubs, but despite that, they are not noisy." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The archetypal Aussie hotel (really just a pub with a few rooms to stagger upstairs to), the Australian has a charming brick exterior, terrific beer, and a lively atmosphere." Full review
On the Grid "Stocking only Australian beers, the heritage hotel located along Cumberland Street in the Rocks offers outdoor seating and charming interior paying tribute to Sydney’s historic area." Full review
Time Out "The Australian Heritage Hotel strikes a comfortable balance between historic tourist stop, and a pub that hard-bitten Sydneysiders still want to frequent." Full review
Frommer's "Each room has a double, queen, or twin beds, and the nine rooms share five bathrooms...the Australian is clean, comfortable, and a bargain." Full review

Concierge "Kirketon was once Sydney's, nay, Australia's coolest hotel... The lobby still exudes a raffish air of coolness, and the moody lighting provides a perfectly discreet atmosphere for the occasional celebrity guest."

"A 40-room, art-inspired boutique hotel that fuses contemporary style with classic Parisian influences." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This boutique hotel is an oasis of style, glamour and comfort in the heart of the vibrant suburb of Darlinghurst."
Time Out "Rooms today come with nice touches such as chocolates and Kevin Murphy toiletries, and the overall design is contemporary minimalist, with rich colours and slick bathrooms with showers." Full review
Star Service "Two blocks north of the edgier, more sophisticated Medusa, on the southern boundary of Kings Cross, this property is more laid-back and better equipped than its sophisticated sibling Diamant Hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "Fashionable place in an excellent location, with beautiful staff, slick service and great restaurants (including Asian ones) and cafés on the doorstep. $149."
Frommer's "Popular among hip, fashionable types, this slightly offbeat boutique hotel in Darlinghurst offers rooms lightly stocked with modernist furniture and custom-made fittings." Full review

Definitely ask for a room away from the main road.

"Moody décor and excellent in-house dining make this boutique hotel of 40 rooms a stylish option in the centrally-located Sydney suburb of Darlinghurst." Full review
Lonely Planet "You might feel like you’re in a David Lynch movie as you wander the darkened, mirror-lined corridors to your room, one of 40 spread over two levels." Full review
Afar Magazine "Formerly a boarding house, this property run by 8 Hotels now offers 40 rooms in the heart of the lively Darlinghurst neighborhood." Full review
