Detailed Reviews
This hotel is well located for tourists walking to Darling Harbour and to the powerhouse museum. The train and light rail service is literally around the corner giving access to everywhere in Sydney.
Our rooms were serviced every day and the staff responded to a minor maintenance issue with 2minutes! The reception is only manned when people check in so this is a room for hire facility rather than hotel. The entrance is not signed very well and we very nearly missed it when we first arrived.
There are lots of Asian restaurants and cafes in the area but choices for European food is very limited. The best value for money cafe option for European food was at the YHA nearby.
The bed, chairs and TV are virtually at floor
level which would be a bit of a challenge for some. The bathroom is roomy and recently renovated.
The rooms are quiet and the aircon works well.
The prices are some of the cheapest in Sydney with the quality of the rooms being superior to its price competitors. We enjoyed our 10 night stay and will definitely come back.

If you’re after a reasonably priced hotel close to Central Station, Valentine on George is just a block away.
Not only close to public transport, but being in Haymarket, Chinatown with its vast range of eateries is within a few minutes’ walk.
The only nagging things about my stay were that the front doors are always locked, so arriving took a little time.
The room was clean & pleasant, but everything was placed really low down (for small people?). The bed, seating, even the TV (usually mounted on a wall or on a desk) was placed on a block sofa - and low.
Bathroom was a nice size & there was a small bar fridge, which I always use.
The location filled my need for 2 nights, which is what I wanted.

Lovely little hotel in a great location. Clean and comfy, we enjoyed the little extras such as tea, milk and biscuits that were replenished daily, aswell as lots of toiletries. Felt very safe during our stay here

The room was spacious, a rarity in the city for that price, quiet in the middle of peak season and close to Chinatown, theatre and public transport. We combined flights to get a further discount, and discounts are available on several websites, so we paid under $200 a night. The decore was classy. Aircon, tv, free toiletries and coffee making facilities were available. The housekeeping service was daily, efficient and generous generous with biscuit and milk refills and towels. The staff were friendly, always saying hello. The cleaning and desk staff were the same people, so we got to know each other, which was added security on the door, when strangers tried to follow us inside without a keycard. We had to tap the keycard at the door, elevator and room door, which gave extra security. The view of the city and church was pleasant and we could hear the church bells at 10am on a Sunday. Incredibly short walk to light rail, bus and train. We caught a taxi by hailing on George St, We attended Capitol Theatre, a short distance away. Thai and Vietnamese food outlets were downstairs. Thai massage was available until 2am! The king-sized bed and pillows were very comfortable.

the location is the only good thing. This is at best a 3 star hotel. Room is dated, very small even with a 21 inch and a cabin size luggage, bedsheets are torn, we got a 30ml body wash for 7 days for 2 person - not topped up. phone does not connect to front desk.
upon check out, the front desk is unattended, no one to help deposit our suitcases hence you either pull your suitcases around town since check out is 10am, or pay AUD8 to deposit it at the central station.
It is bad.

We were looking for New Years weekend accommodation in Sydney and came across Valentine at $400/night with no limitied stay. We snapped it up, butt approached with trepidation. The entry lobby is small, but lined with honey-timber. The hotel is also small but does not suffer for it.
Our room was long, narrow, spacious ad spotlessly clean with smart angular lines. A King-sized bed overlooked Valentine St, Then a sitting area with TV backed up by a narrow desk and chair next to a coffee-making area where the ridge was stored. On the other side of the entrance is the spacious bathroom. Storage space is quite adequate.
Within minutes of Central Railway, Haymarket and Chinatown and on George St it is certainly centrally located

The owner/operators are decent people who tried, very hard, to accommodate my needs. Noni, who is one of the two Owners, made sure I had everything I could possibly need and always asked if there was anything else she could do. Since I stayed there almost for a month, they gave me a special rate. My room was spacious and spotlessly clean. NonI wanted to clean it every day, but honestly it didn’t need it and I would ask her to skip my room on occasion. This was an anathema to her. You could tell she was uncomfortable with not cleaning the room.

Well located off the George street and in China town. Near to tram lines and late hour restaurants. The room is of a very good size, felt like a studio. Very clean as well maintained. Good value for money. The reception is not full time present.

We chose this hotel due to its proximity to Central Station (less than 10 min easy walk). Small hotel with good security and reasonable prices for Sydney. Rooms are well appointed. Beds are low and quite firm. Lighting in bathroom a little dim for make up application. Occasional overnight noise from street. Reception staff pleasant.

This is a very basic hotel. Most disturbing is lack of a lobby and someone at the lobby. You have to make a phone call or ring the bell for someone to open the door. The room is clean and the location is good. It is definitely not a four star hotel

Ann-Marie Jones asked a question Jun 2019
Llanidloes, United Kingdom195 contributions33 helpful votesHow far is this hotel from Sydney Harbour? Thanks
As the crow flies it is about 4-6 kilometres but in a cab it is a bit of a drive because of roadworks, construction sites and one way streets. It is a short walk to Central Train station from Valentine on George or it is a 15 minute cab ride. I personally couldn't walk it but a fit person could but I would suggest catching the train.
Yes on fridge, I’m sure they have an ice machine on site.
