The Australian Heritage is an authenic historic pub with B&B accomodation on the upper floor. The rooms are simple but comfy and feature ample shared baths. The pub has atmosphere and good, unusual fare (need a crocodile pizza?) The only drawback is the narrow, steep stairway which is daunting for us seniors, but the husky bar guys were happy to... More

The Australian Heritage Hotel wasn't what we were expecting, although we should've looked further into it when booking. When we arrived (and departed), there was no one working at the desk for the hotel, so we had to go looking for the bar manager, who appeared to be in charge of the hotel during his shift. He didn't seem happy... More

So glad we found this place! It's just up the road from the bridge walk and after completing the walk in a storm I needed a pint and good food - enjoyed both at the Australian! This is a bar of real character a lot of the victorian character has been preserved - the bar and the lady's were great!... More

The Australian Heritage Hotel was one of the places I was researching for kangaroo meat earlier prior to my trip. I decided to put it in the back of my mind at the time as the main food offered are pizza's. Little to my surprise when we were walking around the Rocks area, there it was. How perfect I thought....

This place was always busy when we stopped in. There serve a huge variety of beer and they have some very interesting pizzas, We stopped in twice for the Coat of Arms pizza (half Kangaroo and half Emu). The pizzas were great and the outdoor seating was always a plus. Just be aware that right around prime lunch and dinner... More

The Australian Heritage hotel is located within walking distance of most of the sites in the Rocks. Our room was nice enough and the bathrooms were OK. The room was clean and there wasn't any noise from the bar. The staff always showed up when called. We didn't have any problems there. They do have very steep stairs so beware... More

Stayed for one night, was a little alarmed when we first arrived at the not very welcoming tiny reception at the bottom of steep narrow stairs and the lack of staff but shouldn't have worried. The rooms are individually decorated & comfortable, all bathrooms are shared but there are plenty of them so it is not a problem. Lounge area... More
