This is an original Sydney property that has had a refurbishment. They have done a tasteful job, rooms nicely decorated, good bathroom, good air con. Clever use of space - library/sitting room boutique feel and great to have coffee on tap any time. Breakfast simple but all home made/baked. Staff super friendly and helpful. Great location walk anywhere

6/10 Good

Overpriced for an old pub. Nicely furnished, but let down by cracked tiles, dirty worn carpets and badly scuffed walls. Loud music on rooftop was so bad I could barely hear TV.
Salena, 3-night trip

Small hotel in Sydney

The booking confirmation did not have a phone number to the hotel. It would have been useful. The hotel was like a European small hotel. Very friendly. Good but limited breakfast. Good beds. Limited storage. Had a safe. Very friendly. Excellent location.

The Strand is a historical aged hotel but kept in good condition. The rooms are small but clean. The hotel doesn't have an elevator but it is only 3 stories high. Also, the staff carried the luggage to your room. We loved Gloria who attended to our needs. The complimentary breakfast was limited but nice. One main plus was the hop on hop off bus stopped across the street from the hotel. The metro bus also stopped there too! Lastly, the cruise port terminal at Circular Quay was very close to us. About $32 Aus by taxi. We would stay there again if in town.

Stayed here for one night whilst visiting the city. A 15/20 minute walk to the CBD and lots of attractions nearby. The room was beautiful, giving Parisian vibes. Super clean and cosy. The bed was so comfy, I had a brilliant night's sleep. The Library was the coolest!! Loved how relaxed the breakfast environment was. Completed with a great mix of continental options, tea and coffee, I loved it! (Only criticism is that something a little savoury would be nice). The staff were so friendly and helpful. We also went to the rooftop bar and tried some of their cocktails. Super chill, with a great view of the Sydney skyline at night. I would recommend this place to anyone! Thank you.

Lovely, small hotel

This is lovely, quaint hotel. There are no elevators, but a maze of staircases! It was fun. Only 17 or 18 rooms. Gloria, at reception, was very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I think we checked in around 11 a.m., and she asked if we’d had breakfast. When we said no, she offered to bring us up some breakfast! When we had breakfast the next day, it was lovely - a nice assortment of cold foods - banana bread, cookies, fruit, granola, yogurt and cold meats like prosciutto. Orange juice, too. Each floor had a water station, with cold water and hot water for tea. Eco friendly!

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely boutique hotel. Excellent location if you enjoy a bit of a walk. Hyde Park, Australia Museum and George Street a short walk away. Darling Harbour attractions less than a half hour walk away. The Big Bus Sydney stop was conveniently just across the street. We walked to the hotel from the cruise ship terminal early in the morning and were pleasantly surprised when we were able to check in early. Do keep in mind that the hotel is multiple stories connected by a narrow staircase and there is no elevator. It wasn't at all a problem for us since we're mobile and had minimal luggage. The staff offered to help carry the luggage up the stairs. If you have mobility issues or a lot of luggage this may be an issue for you. Our room was clean, beautiful and larger than I expected. The Nespresso machine in the room and the included breakfast was certainly appreciated! Also convenient was a Woolworth's grocery store across the street. I would not hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it (as long as stairs aren't an issue for you).

Hyggeligt hotel med masser af charme, beliggende centralt i Sydney. Værelserne er ny indrettede i god stil, men fx ikke med lydisolering til gaden og baren i stueetagen. Der er ikke reception som sådan men personalet i baren er super cool og hjælpsomme. Morgenmad mangler lidt, både i udvalg og kvalitet. Alt i alt en god oplevelse. Prisen var god og beliggenhed i top.

6/10 Good

Daytime staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Assistance with luggage was appreciated especially since there is no elevator in this hotel. The staircase was narrow and winding and needs attention to restore to its former glory. The hyped Casbah/rooftop bar didn't open during our stay due to a lack of customers according to bar staff. Disappointing since we were looking forward to the Mediterranean style offerings. We were also told the kitchen was closing in 2 minutes when we attempted to order food from the bar. Didn't realize it closed at 9pm. This left very few options on a rainy evening. The room was clean except for the dirty marks all over every wall. A coat of paint would make all the difference! We enjoyed the neighborhood but wouldn't return to The Strand Hotel unfortunately.

10/10 Exceptional

From the moment we walked into the Strand Hotel, the staff were there, smiling and going the extra mile for us. The room was simple and very comfortable-and best of all quiet. We were in the second floor below the rooftop terrace and not a sound came through. We slept so well. The bed a comfortable and the room and bathroom clean. For us, the staff are the highlight of this secret little hotel. They are just so kind and friendly, they even remembered us and our story the night after checking in when we ran into our check-in staff member at the bar. The breakfast is simple and they provide fruit and yoghurt for celiacs. We will definitely stay there again and recommend you do too.

We had a lovely stay at the strand; the staff were so friendly and inviting and it was so close to the city without being overly busy. When we unexpectedly had to stay an additional night after our flight home was cancelled, they looked after us very well again and made us feel welcome our entire stay. We will definitely return to this establishment, loved it!!
