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

Rough Guide "A small hotel with popular shared-bathroom rooms, plus en-suite options; the priciest have views of Circular Quay."
