The Savoy sits right in the heart of upmarket Double Bay, close to Sydney's best action. This rambling, family run hotel, with it's quirky rooms is surprisingly inexpensive. The staff are all "personalities" with a happy disposition, good advice; they do their best to ensure you have a comfortable stay. Some rooms open on to a rather nice indoor atrium.... More

We recently spent a night at this Hotel and were utterly disappointed. The room allocated was approximately 3metres by 2.5 metres with hardly enough room for the bed. The bathroom was adequate and clean. If any prospective guest has a car expect problems. There is only street meter parking and this is nearly impossible to get during the day time... More

I have stayed at this hotel twice in the last 6 months as I needed to be in this particular area of Sydney. The hotel has great potential but is currently undergoing renovations. On my latest stay I was woken by the sound of loud machinery in a room only two doors down. The rooms are very tired and not... More

Really good value for money in a super location. Clean and comfortable room enhanced by user-friendly lounge area. Easy parking arranged nearby. Lots of good places to eat nearby, easy walk to ferry into Sydney harbour. Lots of buses into Sydney close by. An excellent base to explore Sydney.

I stayed here for 2 nights. The location is reasonable next to shops and parks and about 10-15 mins by car to the CBD. The room was awful.. Tired, dirty, small, no view, torn carpet, missing covers on ducting, noisy and depressing. We were overcharged for parking as the owners seemed miserly and unfriendly. Don't be fooled by the Savoy... More

We stayed for one night and loved Double Bay. It is an easy bus or ferry journey to Circular Quay. Lovely boutique type hotel. Very affordable with friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast is an excellent price, with a choice of Continental Buffet or Cooked Breakfast. We will definitely stay again on our next Sydney visit.

Excellent value for money, great location for access to public transport, close to decent bars and restaurants and most of all really nice people. tried to book another couple of nights, when we returned from New Zealand, but fully booked, not surprised.

This was our 4th stop on a 2 month trip booked through Mercury Direct. We were booking to a price and truth be told hadn’t really appreciated how far out of the Sydney City centre the hotel is. A 30 minute bus ride or 10 minutes by the fast cat ferry. However this in fact proved to be a boon... More

We needed a stopover hotel for two days two weeks apart in January. We did not want to pay a lot, and this hotel was very reasonable with some sound reviews. Our expectations were more than met for the price we paid, and there were some real bonuses. Yes, as others have pointed out, the decor is significantly tired... however,... More
