57 Hotel

Thank you so much to the wonderful folks at 57 Hotel for your superior service and hospitality. The location of the hotel is excellent (pretty much just across the road from the Central train station), the customer service is absolutely fantastic; a huge thank you, particularly, to Kieran at the reception for being so friendly and patient, as well as answering all of my questions about my room and stay. The rooms are very clean and luxurious as well. Should I ever need to stay in Sydney again, this place is the one I will definitely return to, and I highly recommend it. You can't fault 57 Hotel! I'm so pleased with how things went. Thank you!

Staff were welcoming friendly and helpful. Rooms were fit for purpose. They were on the smaller side but very comfortable clean and easy to use. The location being close to light rail and Central Train station made access to the city sights and activities easy. The pastries fruit and coffees were a pleasant surprise for breakfast. The area was quiet with access to pubs takeaway cafes and supermarket.

Excellent location to Central train station. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The lobby coffee station and breakfast eats were good to have. Good daily servicing. The only negative is the small tight size of the room. Ok for 1 or a couple. We were 3 people and the room was definitely too small to be comfortable. Also the bathroom was unusual in it's set up. It's OK for a couple of nights but it's a challenge for longer. It did make us get out for most of the day.

Had a very nice experience from booking to check in to check out. Will definitely stay at 57 next trip. Requested a quiet room when booking, they made a note and where food to their promise of giving me a very quiet room. |Having access to 24 hour coffee and also not I g pastries was a very nice touch. The location makes it very easy to get around as it’s less than a five minute walk from Central Station. Thanks very much to57 - keep up the great work

The price is reasonable considering the location and being close to the city center. I stayed in 2 single bedroom, the room doesn’t get much sunlight but it was clean. The only problem is the shower is not designed well. It only closes with a curtain and it’s not enough. After every shower, it gets flooded everywhere. Also the glass door to divide the bathroom with the room is not functional and doesn’t provide any privacy. I stayed alone in the room so it was fine for me but otherwise I would be very uncomfortable. The reception has a Nespresso coffee machine which is free and you can have packaged breakfast snacks mostly made of cakes, muffins and croissants. Overall, it was a good stay for 2 days.

The hotel smells beautiful no matter what floor you're in. The disco ball lift was a laugh it got you dancing every time you stepped in it 😆💃|Amazing Amazing the coffee lounge with reall coffee (nespresso machines) the service from the staff at frontend is impeccable. A 5star is very well deserved. The best part! Walking distance from central station. Great job 57 Hotel.|Cheers Martina

Nice boutique hotel in Surry Hills section of Sydney. Close to the Central Train Station, a Hop On-Hop Off stop and a good mix of restaurants. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. They have a free continental breakfast with coffee, tea and water available 24/7. The rooms are nice, well-maintained and comfortable.

I had an amazing stay at 57 Hotel! The location is central and perfect for exploring Sydney, and the staff were so welcoming – special thanks to Kieran for the map and tips! My room was clean, with a bathroom offering a great view. Loved the disco-themed lift and 24/7 coffee machine. Great value for money, especially for a solo traveler. Highly recommend and would definitely return!

Convenient location in Surry hills nearby a lot of cafes and restaurants. Also right next to monorail and central station. In the morning , there is free pastries and fruits. There is free coffee via nespresso machine and free tea 24/7. It's a decent price for the quality. However, the bathroom is not well designed. There is no door separating the bedroom from the bathroom. It's just a curtain. Also, the shower has nothing to block the water from seeping out to the bathroom floor. As a result, everytime you take a shower the bathroom floor gets flooded making a mess and a potential slipping hazard. Not sure who designed this. Also, if you get a single twin bed room there is no outlets next to the bed. You need to borrow an extension cord from the hotel. Of note, they will let you borrow a travel adapter as well for free.

The hotel is named after studio 57 and you'll see that immediately when you get into the disco lift. There's a disco ball and disco music playing inside. Free grab and go breakfast, tea and coffee served from 6-10 am. Refrigerated water available at all times. Items are small pastries and pre packaged lamingtons. Everything was pretty delicious. The front desk people are all very friendly. I'm giving a 3 star rating because of the room itself. The bathroom in particular was horrendously designed. There's a window looking into the toilet area and anyone from the adjacent room could view us at anytime if they dared to open their curtains. The window doesn't make sense because there's not even a good view from the window, its just a dirty alley way? Then the shower has no delimiter so water spreads everywhere. Really just a bizarre design, but it can be improved drastically by adding a curtain for that window. Overall not a bad hotel, just ask not to be placed in any room ending in 07 or 08.

This hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Surry Hills. There are eateries right outside the door and the subway and railway is just 5 minutes walk. At the end of the block is a mid-sized busy grocery store which can be handy to stock up your little fridge. The room I stayed in seemed a bit small and the bathroom was quite funky. It was like a glass wall partition with curtains. It took getting used to. I was there for over a week. The staff was hit and miss. Let's start with the good. Jayla was amazing; so nice, down-to-earth and pleasantly helpful. She gave the place "warmth". I think if she managed this place the staff would most likely be set to a consistently higher standard. Elise was also very helpful. The bad: It seemed like there was a turn over in staff. Some of them were quite rude. For example one tall, dark "gentleman" behind the desk at night clearly seemed "annoyed" he was summoned from the back of the guest desk door and when I asked him if there were any convenience stores open late at night ( I had a hankering for some juice and not soda ) he said there was nothing at all in the area. I did not take his word for it and went out and found a tobacco store near the gym that I had went to which did sell beverages. The next day I was told that there was a 7 Eleven not too far way. The guy I asked turned out to be the Housekeeping Manager which was no small wonder. One particular housekeeper was obnoxious. She knocked on the door and I told her I'd leave exactly in a minute. She was all sour faced, said OK and she didn't come back at all! No towels, no toilet paper, no clean up. Here's the kicker, she did it again a second day. The hotel was quite apologetic and seemed sincere about it but come on. For what I was paying, really? When we asked another housekeeper nearby for attention she said that if was not one of her rooms and did not help. So what made it worthwhile: * The location * The free temp gym membership about 7 minutes walk away. * And the particular staff that made the difference in order: Jayla - You're awesome thank you - I almost changed hotels !!!! But your help, professionalism and genuineness changed that. Elise - so very nice and made me feel like someone else also cared in the hotel. * A good number of eateries, breakfast places - one in particular across the street from the hotel , and Sushi Train right next door to name a few.

Super cute, convenient location, and a massive Nespresso machine that practically begs to make coffee for you. There's a 50% chance that you get to ride the disco elevator, which we all enjoyed. If you like a more mellow ride, there's a 50% chance that you'll ride the non-disco one. Either way, working elevators = good elevators. The staff was super accommodating when we had to make changes, which was cool. What was not cool was the absence of a mini-fridge. We had to pop off to the shop down the street each time we needed milk for our little one. Showering next to the main window was a new experience for me. I appreciated the frosted glass for privacy. It also took a bit of getting used to drawing the room curtain for privacy while using the toilet, but we managed. It was just kinda funny when we first walked into the room. We were like, "Oh, hey. What a great view of the entire bathroom!" Luckily, as a new mom, I've accepted that I have no privacy when I shower, so that part was easy. (The curtain could still be drawn if we needed). But honestly, for the price, location, and quality, it was great. I'd stay here again. I'd probably schedule or call to confirm housekeeping times, though. We made it a point to be out when we thought they were cleaning, only to find that they never came or were making rounds when we were busy with naps, dressing, or whatever. Not sure if that's important to you, but certainly something worth mentioning in case it is. Complimentary pastries, water, and wi-fi. Walking distance to Central Station, cool pubs, shops, and places to eat.

Great stay at the 57 hotel. Super conveniently located a few blocks from the Central train station and in the heart of Surry Hills. Check-in was super easy and the lobby features a giant expresso machine that begs to be used along with a fridge full of bottled water. Free breakfast featuring pastries was also nice. The room itself wasn't huge but could sleep 3 as it had a queen bed and a twin bed. The bathroom is interesting to say the least... With the curtain open, you can see the entire bathroom but you can close the curtain if you want some privacy. Let's just say that this hotel might be better for couples than for friends/families because of the bathroom.

This boutique hotel is indeed not bad. Convenient located in Surry Hills close to Chinatown w/ plenty to eat. Subway stations are close by & basically a lot of sightseeing & shopping places are within walking distance. Staff are friendly & helpful. Really appreciate the all-u-can-drink 24/7 Nespresso coffee & morning pastries. I always need those as soon as I'm awake. :P Disco Queen is a descent size. Really comfy bed w/ adequate air conditioning. So cool to have your own personal iPad! However, I did see a stain on one of a bed sheets. One of the mugs was dirty inside. One of the small towels had pieces of a dead insect. The area is pretty quiet except for the occasional loud noise caused by closing of doors, which could be startling while u r sleeping. Price was considered ok keeping in mind the convenient location. However, wish that they would provide a clear invoice w/ breakdowns in either a physical or electronic copy. They had pre-authorization, deposit, surcharge, etc... which could cause confusion.

This boutique hotel is worth every penny. It's clean, in a great location next to Central Station, and has everything one needs while traveling. The interior design is modern and the rooms come with iPads which is a nice touch I haven't seen elsewhere. They conveniently serve water and have a Nespresso machine in the lobby. The location is walking distance to central station and crown street, where there's tons of food and boutique/vintage shops. The staff has all been helpful and accomodating, offering umbrellas for the rain and giving recommendations on where to eat/drink. I'd definitely stay here again on another trip out.

It's hard to recommend this place enough. The location is great: just minutes from Central, making it easy to get just about everywhere by train or bus. (I also happily walked to and from Circular Quay, the Botanical Garden, and other places, but those distances may not be to everyone's tastes.) The rooms are "small" (by American standards) but very nice, and the size was not surprising (indeed, a tiny bit larger than I expected). Comfortable bed, usable desk, good bathroom, and very clean. Toiletries like skin balm. Air conditioning. Be aware that the bathroom has only a glass wall, which some people might not appreciate at all. A small nightstand would have been handy, but that's a minor detail. Coffee and tea are available in the lobby at all times, as is bottled water. In the morning there's a selection of pastries. There's also a Metro supermarket just down the block and it was easy enough to grab yogurts and other things from there. The hotel was accurate in their advertising of breakfast. The hotel provides free access to a three-floor gym about five minutes away. The gym was fairly well equipped and the staff there were welcoming. The WiFi quality was shockingly good, and without nuisance (unlike, e.g., hotels that expect you to keep re-authenticating). The hotel staff were really friendly. I would gladly stay here again -- indeed, the next time in Sydney this is where I'd check first. It's priced much cheaper than many Sydney hotels. It walks a fine line between economy (I don't want to use the word "budget" because that sounds like it's for backpackers, which would be unfair to this place) and "designer", and gets the right.

The hotel felt very clean and new. I love the modern deco. Housekeeping straightens up and makes every spic and span again every day. It's small, but the design is very smart. Instead of a closet, there's a rack for about 5 hangers. We packed light and only stayed in the hotel to rest, so we had enough space for what we needed: sleep and shower. If your wardrobe is bigger, you might need to have a room bigger than the standard full-size we got. I have paid more for a room that size in downtown Chicago, so I have no reason to complain. Staff is pleasant and helpful. There's always FREE water, tea and coffee (machine) for drinking and even taking out on your day. Breakfast includes 3-4 types of pastries (chocolate, spinach & cheese...). We woke up late on Boxing Day and there was also delivery issue so no pastries for us that day, but it was okay. I love the location and how close it was to Central Station (10 minute walk maybe) and China town (15-20 min. walk?). The harbor was a few miles away (30min-1hr). Everything felt within walking distance, depending on how much you want to walk. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. There are some bars nearby too. We didn't explore too much.
