The rooms are a bit dated and wouldn't win any interior design awards, but this is a good choice if you are looking to stay somewhere fairly central without spending too much on accommodation. The kitchenette is perfect for preparing breakfast, but it's by no means a kitchen that suitable for serious cooking. There are a few take-away restaurants and... More

Was there three years ago and in Jan. 2012. No updates in rooms since than and it was already used back than. Great views and good location are a plus. Unfortunately no balconies. People at reception nice just as three years ago, just aged a little. More

We booked this hotel because it offered a small kitchenette, ideal location and good value. The kitchenette was a little small, but was useful for making breakfast and small dinners. There is a supermarket across the street which was very handy and had a good selection. The location allowed us to walk to the Opera house, Botanical Gardens and explore... More

Stayed for 2 nights on tour of Oz. Comfy Rooms. Everything thought of in terms of facilities , cross between Hotel & Apartment. Location in Potts Point is not far from Seedy area, but plenty of expensive properties & Restaurants as well. Thai Restaurant that is supposed to be really good is next door. Staff go the extra mile to... More

Stayed here for the New Year's Eve celebrations in order to avoid the crowds rushing to get home. I had booked for 2 adults and 2 kids and they tried to charge me an additional $15 for the kids stay. I had to show them the T&C that kids won't be charged if using the same bed. Rooms are so... More

We stayed at the MacLeay at the end of November 2011. We very much appreciated the flexibility of the reservations staff in juggling our dates and accommodating our needs. The room was clean, pleasant, airy, with a great view of Sydney Harbor. We most heartily endorse the MacLeay as a traveler-friendly stop. More

The hotel were great and said if we waited 20 mins... More

I booked a few nights here for myself and my family while on vacation in Sydney. Prior to our arrival, I had to adjust our schedule and the staff was very willing to make the necessary corrections over the phone without making the international call too long. Upon arrival I was overly pleased with the friendliness of the staff. They... More

Large room (maybe 12 or 14 feet square): comfortable queen bed with nightstands to both sides and a table at the foot of the bed with aisle space between the two. High, small square tub with shower in adequate bathroom. The small kitchen along entry hall met all our needs with the electric kettle, toaster, refrigerator and microwave, and a... More

I read alot of reviews on Trip Advisor when I was choosing accommodation in Sydney and decided to book at the Macleay Serviced Apartments on the strength of the reviews here. It was the first time I'd ever done that (I normally pick something out of a guide book and confirm with a review). I was not disappointed. I was... More
