The reception area of the hotel was quite modern and spacious. When we arrived we were told that our rooms were ready which was good. We checked in very fast and arrived at our room. It was very small with a musty smell about it. It was clean(ish) but the room was very small with a tiny double bed to... more

Within easy walk of the harbour, and Hyde Park right on the doorstep. The room was small but had everything I needed, including a safebox. Staff were helpful, though perhaps not quite as efficient as they could be. Breakfast OK. Internet. All in all, a hassle-free place to stay. more

Selected the Y on the basis of price over New Year in Sydney. Booked through the hotel website originally for 2 nights, but later emailed them to extend to 4 nights and received prompt emails back to sort this out. On arrival we were pleasantly surprised. Our triple traditional room was quite spacious with a big window over a balcony... more

When we planned our backpacking trip of Australia in 2006 we expected that some of the places we would turn out to be actually not very nice, however, almost without exception, the places we ended up staying were extremely pleasing. The Y on the Park in Sydney was great value for money and had a location which meant it was... more

We stayed at the Y Hotel for 4 nights in a double deluxe room. The room was nothing special, but it was clean and was adequate for our needs. The included breakfast was cereal, toast, and juice - again, nothing outstanding, but it was fine. What really makes this hotel worth staying at is the great location for the price.... more

Having read the reviews on T.A. we arrived at the Y with some trepidation. We had booked 5 nights there after much searching for reasonably priced , but not too basic accommodation. We were given our room key and were really upset at the room, described as Double Deluxe, it was very small, the TV was on the top shelf... more

You know you can't trust websitepictures when you book a hotel. But this is absolutely the worst case I've seen. The pics are nice, but the place is horrible. A very noisy room, because the windows are too old and couldn't even be locked properly. The room was way too small as I couldn't even open my suitcase on the... more

I booked this as a budget hotel. I stayed in a shared 3 bed dorm. To my surprise there were no bunkbeds which are the norm with most dorms, but 3 beds laid out. It was a nice room with lockers to keep your valubles secure. The shared bathroom was nice. I never queued once and it was always clean.... more

I booked this accommodation as my family and i were going down to Sydney for a long weekend, and i must admit this place is AWLFUL! My first impression was of the foyer area, which was tidy and the guys on teh counter were friendly and very helpful with directions around Sydney. My impression quickly changed as soon as we... more
