We stood here for two nights and we choose this hotel bcoz the location and low prices. Room was quite okay but the floor was noisy I guess. We got a room which has a view of the George street where I guess lot of rooms which didn't had any view. The place was very convenient its walking distance from... More

The hotel is close to all transport, great places to eat, entertainment et-al. It is all there and you can't beat their value compared with what you get. I've stayed here four times and will defintely come back.

As has been said, Great Southern is close to the Central Station, and it's easy enough to wave down a taxi. It's on George Street, close to Chinatown and within walking distance of Darling Harbour. You can catch the train or hop onto the Sydney Explorer bus at Central to see other tourist attractions. In the lobby of the hotel,... More

This hotel is a good deal if you are looking for a short stay in Sydney. The location of the hotel is the main advantage,close to the railway station and walking distance from the main attraction of sydney. The rooms are cleaned and the front office staff very helpful. The breakfast was average but for the price you cannot expect... More

Got a great rate for this hotel - for under $A100 it's cheap and cheerful, a great deal in the city centre. It's 2 blocks away from the central railway station and on the free commuter link bus route. The staff are young, happy and well trained, and look after you well. It's a good hike above a backpackers in... More

I stayed in this hotel for a couple of days during a business trip. Didn't want to spend too much money cos I just needed a room to sleep in after work. Location was great as the train station was nearby. Booked my room through WOTIF.com a few days before the trip which gave a really good deal. Arrived at... More

I have stayed in many hotels in Sydney, and this hotel is by far the best value. I usually pay a rate that's cheaper than a single room in nearby hostel. The rooms are basic, but it's newly renovated and clean. The rooms are small but functional. It is extremely quiet as most rooms face the courtyard. The location is... More

We stayed at the hotel Great Southern for 3 nights while we went to a show at the State Theatre. Overall we wanted something in the city, on a budget, but still with all the conveniences of a large hotel. We read a few reviews on Trip Advisor and decided to stay here. We booked via "Rates to Go" website... More

Like the previous reviewer I found this place very good value ($70 a night). It is a large rambling hotel built in the 1930s and refurbished in very fetching art deco style. Location is fine for most purposes: very close to Central Station, Sydney's main rail hub, and the Sydney terminal for long distance coaches (buses). The tourist spots of... More
