The service was appaling. They were not at ll interested in serving guests and when one person in our party told the bar man that he was perceived as being condacending he couldn't care less, he even told us so!

The Crest Hotel was a good comfortable place to stay. If you are a budget traveller and you want a SAFE place to stay, this is a place I would recommend. Its in Kings Cross which is in a red light district, but the GOOD side to this is the food. THe food is amazing on Darlinghurst Street. You can... More

I stayed at the Crest hotel for two nights in April. I had a room on the 14th floor. And indeed it looked nothing like the photos on the hotel-website. There were stains in the carpet, the in-room fridge did not work. Some of the light switches were cracked. In the bathroom there was mold in the shower and plaster... More

We got a taxi from the airport which was about a 20 minute drive at a very reasonable rate. On arrival at the hotel, the area didn't look too bad (how wrong I was) and from the outside, the hotel looked OK.

My travel agent has booked many outstanding family friendly hotels in the past, and I thought this would... More

We stayed at the Crest Hotel in November 2006, we had a horrible time. The pictures on the web site are nothing like the hotel. This hotel ruined our stay in Sydney. The rooms are awful, smelly, unsanitary and loud. Our entire room was wallpapered, including the ceiling. The wall paper was pealing off the walls and there was severe... More

Our group arrived in Syndey on November 16, 2006. Prior to checking in, our group took a tour of the city. Our bus driver asked us where we were staying. We told him the Crest Hotel. In his fine Australian accent, he says oh you are staying in the "RED LIGHT DISTRICT". We all laughed, like he was joking. We... More

A friend of mine and I visited the Hotel in August 2002 and we really enjoyed our stay! We had a hotel room, which ovelooked the opera house and the bridge (Great full view)! The staff is very nice and very helpful, the location is very lively at night and we never got bored walking in the hotel area! Please... More
