“Good city stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 28, 2013

Second stay in this hotel - this time in a studio apartment. It had a full kitchen. Don't be put off by the alley way entrance. The hotel is centrally located for all the major attractions. We stayed on level 6 this time it was very quiet. Room was promptly cleaned. The gym was clean, well equipped and the equipment in good working order. The staff are pleasant and friendly without being intrusive.

“Good clean apartments”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013 via mobile

Great location, 10-15 mins walk to anywhere you would need to be in Sydney. Stayed here for 8 days over christmas so the fact the balcony overlooked shabby offices wasn't a problem. Good clean spacious apartment with free washing facilities, the wi-fi was a bit of a rip off though. Overall a very good experience.

Dear NPudsey,
thank you for taking the time out to write your review.
We are very glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. We are in a good location making it easy for visitors to get around Sydney without hassles.
The wi-fi is outsourced hence the charges. We now have "free" wi-fi for 30minutes for each 24hour period available only in the Foyer for our guests.

“No surprises”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

We stayed at the Classic Martin for 4 nights after arriving in Sydney on a cruise ship, and then for another 3 nights after visiting the Cairns and Brisbane areas.

After staying there, we felt that the TA reviews we read were very indicative of the hotel. The location is one of its biggest assets, close to Circular Quay and the Opera House. Public transport is very close by, and a weekly 'zone 1' pass at $43 gets you just about everywhere you might want to go ion the Sydney area. Our apartment was well equipped for our needs, especially the in-unit laundry facilities after a 19 might cruise. The unit was quite dark due to it's location, and the shower a challenge for the height-challenged (e.g. me) or the elderly.

We were pleased that they kept some luggage for us between our stays, as we did not need our more formal wear while in Cairns or Brisbane. Our suitcase was waiting for us in our unit when arrive for our second stay.

One main complaint is the ridiculous cost for wireless access. We made use of free wireless at the local McDs and even on the ferries.

“Great location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013 via mobile

We had 2 short stays at this hotel. Staff were friendly and efficient. The apartment was clean and comfortable - comes with separate lounge, kitchen with basic amenities including dishwasher, large fridge and microwave, also washer and drier. Only problem we found was the hard to access shower which is a deepish bathtub arrangement and not particularly suitable for older visitors. Otherwise all good.

“Fantastic apartment hotel in centre of city”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 2, 2013

We loved our stay here and it was a fabulous price!

Do stay here if:
*You want the advantage of apartment living. We had a full kitchen, bathroom, and laundry. It was great being able to run clothes through the washing machine and dryer before we headed to our cruise ship.
*You want to be right in the heart of the city and easy walking distance to Circular Quay, the Royal Botannic Gardens, Martin Place, trains etc.
*You want to be a 5 min walk to a supermarket.

Don't stay here if:
*You want a view. The view out the windows is of an alley/office buildings.
*You are elderly or infirm. The shower has about a 70cm bath base that you need to step up and over to get into the shower. There is a handle on the wall but best to be pre-warned in case this poses an issue.

FYI - There is a pedestrian path at the end of the alleyway that takes you past the magic shop out onto Pitt St next to a stationary store with red sign. Turn left and in under a minute you're on Martin Place.
