Breakfree On Clarence

“Great for a solo trip”

I definitely liked this hotel. Location: It was really well located with easy access from the airport by train followed by a 10min walk. Also easy access on foot to the main shopping area (Pitt Street) and Barangaroo as well as a short train ride to Circular Quay. There was lots of food options close by too. Rooms: clean, bright and cheerful. I think there are various versions - mine was a long room with a queen bed at the end of the room. There was a small sofa which faced the TV. The room was quiet and I was able to sleep very well. The nespresso machine was wonderful for early morning coffees. Bathroom was absolutely fine! Service: I was so glad to have been able to check in early. The staff were generally nice. Note that the lobby is tiny but adequate. Overall, I thought this place was great and I'd stay again. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the layout meant I could not watch TV in bed (something which I enjoy when I travel solo).

“Really 4.5 stars :)”

We would stay here again! PROS: Lovely staff (a fabulously warm welcome by Maxim). Modern rooms, super clean: our room wasn’t ready when we arrived, but Maxim kindly offered us a different type of room — on a lower floor but apparently on the quieter side of the building — and even let us check … lisää

We would stay here again! PROS: Lovely staff (a fabulously warm welcome by Maxim). Modern rooms, super clean: our room wasn’t ready when we arrived, but Maxim kindly offered us a different type of room — on a lower floor but apparently on the quieter side of the building — and even let us check it out first … after 36 hours of travel to get there, we took it, very grateful for the chance to check in 5 hours early! Room was small (but that was expected) and perfectly made up — super neat (and if only the bathroom had more hooks and shelves, it would be perfect!). Housekeepers were quick to help us get extra towels, so sweet! I came back from an outside run on the second morning, and Maxim was waiting at the front desk with a bottle of water for me — amazing! Fantastic shower (super hot and excellent pressure) and suuuuuper comfy bed! Small but brand new and well stocked gym (though it could definitely do with some antibacterial wipes…). Location location location! — literally everything is right nearby. CONS: No natural light, which we missed. We could hear everything from the room next door — including other guests peeing! Bathroom light is a ridiculous distance from the actual bathroom — poor engineering.

“Great Location”

I stayed at The Clarence Sydney Hotel for four nights. The biggest highlight is definitely the location.

I stayed at The Clarence Sydney Hotel for four nights. The biggest highlight is definitely the location. It’s right in the centre of everything close to Wynyard Station, Town Hall, QVB, and even within walking distance to Circular Quay in about 20 minutes. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room size was reasonable for a city hotel. However, cleanliness needs improvement as dust was noticeable throughout the room. Because the property is right on the street, you can also expect some party noise and traffic sounds at night. Overall, I’d recommend this hotel for travellers who prioritise a great, convenient location above all else. #Room 606

“Rooms too small!”

Conveniently located within a 7 minute walk of Wynyard railway station the Clarence hotel is in a good place for tourists staying in Sydney - a few blocks down the road is a laundry and close by there are several restaurants and cafes.

Conveniently located within a 7 minute walk of Wynyard railway station the Clarence hotel is in a good place for tourists staying in Sydney - a few blocks down the road is a laundry and close by there are several restaurants and cafes. Circular Quay is about a 15 minute walk away as are many other useful amenities. The hotel has recently been modernised, and although it is an old building the rooms inside are fresh and new. However they are very small! Our room (604 ) was no more than 9 feet wide with a small window partly obscured by the end of the double bed. The bathroom was also tiny - indeed so tiny that it was impossible to sit straight on the toilet! The room was well fitted out with a 5-foot comfortable double bed, good lighting, a flat screen TV, a small fridge, an ironing board and iron, plenty of plug sockets, tea and coffee facilities, a small table and seating area, but only a few hooks to hang your clothes on and no wardrobe. There was a bit of space under the bed – but nowhere to put your suitcases at all. The free Wi-Fi was good and relatively quick, and the bathroom shower was efficient and actually quite spacious. We paid over £100 a night for our room which did not include breakfast (the hotel has no restaurant). I could not really recommend the Clarence hotel because we spent four nights here and felt that our bedroom was almost like a prison cell without a window. There is 24-hour reception and we were always warmly greeted in a friendly way but the rooms are simply too small.
