It worth due to the price, the services and location! Looks much more like a hotel! The rooms have nice facities and the neighbouhood around is amazing, just few blocks from the lovely Elizabeth Bay. It is also close to the downtown and few meters away from the tour bus stop.

Our travel agents booked us in at this hotel/apartment block . We were very happy with it. room was clean and ok . not fantastic luxury but everthing you needed including the very handy sink and fridge so that if you wanted to bring a takeaway back or even cook on the little hob you could do. We didnt but... More

After looking high and low for affordable accommodation in Sydney, we finally settled for Macleay Lodge. It looked fine from photos but I was a little apprehensive about how good it would really be. Turns out I neednt have worried - it was a lovely budget hotel. The receptionist was very friendly, checked us in promptly and was helpful with... More

I stayed at the Macleay Lodge for 3 nights in a single room and it's a great price for what you get. It's certainly better than staying at a dirty hostel. Overall the place was pretty quiet, I didn't feel like I was bumping into guests constantly going in and out. As an ex Sydneysider, I don't come back for... More

This hotel is located right near public transport and is right near woolworths and a bunch of cafes. Although there is no 'comforts' in this hotel - aka air conditioning, private bathroom or lift - the care and service provided by the staff makes up for the lack of these luxuries. Highly recommended

No AC, no breakfast, no private bathroom. On normal weather conditions the ceiling fan is just OK. There are many cheap places to grab a bite along Kings Cross. Fridge and microwave oven in the room come in handy as you can buy your food at a supermarket nearby. I shared bathroom with 3 other rooms and never had to... More

Set just a couple of streets from the backpackers district of Potts Point, Macleay Lodge is a step up in quality, meaning it's cleaner and quieter than you find in an average hostel. It's obviously a shabby old building that the owners have tried to spruce up with newer furniture and artwork, so the rooms are a little tired but... More

The good: Friendly and helpful staff Good location 'in the thick of things'- a walk away from Kings Cross train station Room clean, with linen supplied. Comfy beds. Good kitchenette inclusions - plates/bowls/cutlery/toaster/kettle/microwave/bar fridge/tea+coffee/sink The actual balcony was useful and cooler and good for eating meals at an outdoor table Rooms not 'made up' each day so no-one is coming...

Booked there and regretted it! Walked in, looked around, walked out. Staff was not friendly AT ALL. The place is dirty and very drab looking from the outside. Ended up at the Macleay Hotel Apartments directly across the street. Their staff was amazing! For the same money, got a bathroom inside our room instead of "sharing" with the entire floor... More
