While there were some nice style choices, overall the design of this hotel was poorly thought-out and not at all comfortable. We, as a treat, went for a premium room. It was so small, we went downstairs to check that this WAS actually a premium and not a standard. Here is a brief list of disappointing features: - luckily we... more

This is NOT a five star hotel, nor four. maybe three. Clearly advertising works, people have been staying there. However it is not what is purported. The standard of the hotel seemed very dated - they claim to have just refurbished!! the carpet is tattered, the bathrooms dirty, the tiles grubbly. The shower took me three minutes to get a... more

We stayed here for a special birthday getaway. I thought this would be an interesting place to stay as it was in a different part of sydney than we usually stay. The hotel has a cool chic feel with hallways and entryway very artistic. However our troubles started before we even arrived as there is NO WHERE to park before... more

Very nice stay. Only drawbacks to this hotel, no elevator and small rooms. Other than that, the place is great. Would stay here again if in Sydney. more

The Kirketon is in a great location, positioned between Oxford Street and Kings Cross. It is really easy to get around on public transport. There are so many great places to eat in the local area. Don't be turned off by the preconceived notions of 'the cross' i was there for 10 days, during the week it's no worse then... more

This place was fabulous!!!! I had a very pleasant stay and now I have discovered it I will be back on return trips . I can't hesitate to recommend the high quality of the room for the price and in particular the staff I encountered during my stay. Nothing seemed to be a problem at all for them and they... more

We arrived late morning to a not so friendly welcome, she could have said good morning and welcome to the Kirketon, instead we got a "Name" and your room is ready. She was dressed in a overcoat not very professional. As we has a "Surprise secret room", we had anticipated something special. We got an extremely small room with a... more

I stayed in this hotel for one night as i was self rated as 5 star on last minute.com and was on special offer for one night. I stayed in a standard room which had a king size bed which took up the whole room !! The room was extremely small. There was a big wide screen television which i... more

A unique Boutique Hotel. Don't be fooled by the photos in their website. http://www.kirketon.com.au/ The rooms are really small but cosy and elegant. Without ample lights ie DARK. Abundant use of grey and black in their deco. The house keeping is very noisy in the morning :-( as they go about their rounds. The floor boards squeaks so you can... more

In saying this, the large majority of our guests are extremely happy and find the rooms not only cosy and comfortable but elegant and stylish too. The Kirketon does have a...
