I stayed alone with three young children (3 - 10 yo) for 5 nights. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgable. After struggling down the short flight of stairs the first time with a stroller & our luggage, I was quickly offered assistance by the staff, then shown a ramp for future use. Thereafter, every evening... more

This hotel is value for money, so don’t expect a lot. The rooms are reminiscent of 1970’s décor and in desperate need of updating. The air-conditioning is nothing more than a window rattler type planted into the wall. The double bed is only just a double bed – a bit small! Otherwise the room is quite satisfactory and roomier than... more

we just needed one nights accomodation before heading up the coast. We didn't like this place and i wouldn't recommend it for more than a night. The reception was ok, a little tired but the room was awful - really tired and a bit grubby looking. It was not in a particulary nice area - close to Kings Cross. We... more

I've stayed at the DeVere many times mover the past several years after trying various hotels in other parts of Sydney (e.g. the CBD). It is an excellent value and the location is within a 10-15 minute walk of the Domain and Botanical Garden. (Use the stairs off Victoria street for a short cut). The Kings Cross train station is... more

I found my single room on wotif.com for $45/night! The room was so small it was almost comical, but it was clean and quiet. I got a harbor view room which I highly recommend. The hotel was in a great location and the staff was helpful. more

I was a bit apprehensive after reading a few not so favourable reviews about the hotel, but I found Devere to be good money in a city like Sydney. The location is excellent with lots of restaurants, the Kings Cross metro station and bus stand near by. Even the Bondi/Sydney Explorer bus stand is a short walk away. We found... more

Luckily we only stayed for one night - but i would have been very disappointed if I'd have stayed longer. To be fair the price was relatively cheap, and we did have a good view of the sea from the room, but the room was small and in desperate need of an update. The location wasn't the best for exploring... more

I visited www.lastminute.com and found rates for the Devere cheaper than what they were personally offering on the website so, firstly, that's the way to go! The hotel itself was pretty good; the staff were extremely friendly, helping with bags and always ready to help us as much as the could. Room service was completed each day which was refreshing.... more

It's been a couple of years since i stayed at the Devere and unfortunately my earlier good experience is a distance memory. I don't think it's been cleaned, maintained or aired since my last visit and i wouldn't stay there again. For an extra few bucks i moved to the Crown Plaza and it further highlighted just how terrible the... more
