Supposed to be a boutique hotel, what a joke! Dingy little room that smelt of cigarette smoke.Shower curtain too short so bathroom flooded. Only 1 small piece of soap to last 2 people 2 days-not even a piece each for basin and shower. Remote controls for TV and A/C didn't work(flat batteries). No clock radio in room either. We weren't... more

Wish I had read the reviews first!!!!!!!!! From the moment I arrived I wish I had turned and run. The photos are completely misleading. There is no reception just some guy who can barely speak English in shorts and a t-shirt. The feel of the place is unsafe. The room was tidy but had a terrible feel to it. I... more

I'm at L'otel tonight, I've never seen a room this small. The walls haven't been painted for years, only a thin sheet on the bed, the room smells and I have a beautiful view of piles of rubbish. Wish we had read reviews first. It is nothing like the website!! On a positive excellent location and ok if ur just... more

I always look up the review but this time we were in a hurry and booked it on the internet. It does NOT look like the photos on there website. There is NO window! The showercurtain is too short. The socket for electricity was so low, we had to boil water on the floor. The cheap carpet was terrible. The... more

Quite honestly the most disgusting place I've been to. So bad we didn't even stay the night. Hope your reading these reviews before your thinking about booking, if you have already booked try and get a refund, trust me. more

I had high expectation before i check-in since they called themselves boutique accomodation but upon my arrival the room wasn't propelly look after. Sand on my carpet indicating it hasn't been vacuum. Mold in the toilet, its everywear. Seriously disgusting. I made a mistake during booking. Normally i read the review first but in this case i was to grab... more

Like an idiot I booked this before looking at TA. What was I thinking... I did redeem myself somewhat by ringing the place after I read the reviews here and asked for a balcony room (302) which is the room in the website photos. It is probably one of the two best rooms in the hotel. 301 is next door... more

I've read all the bad reviews and - by and large - agree. The only reason to stay here is for the location. If you must stay here then book one of the balcony rooms - the ability to have fresh air and natural light is essential. No other room is worth the money - no matter how cheap. Everything... more

I'm sorry to pile on to this Lotel-bashing string of reviews but apparently the only satisfaction I'm going to reap from my own unique Lotel experience is composing this ode to quite possibly the most dismal, depressing, heart-breakingly dreary hotel in Sydney. First off, I am not a fussy traveller, nor am I put off by the usual urban hum... more

Worst hotel i stayed!! I rather you sleep on the streets or at the airport!!! Dirty, doggy! Lots of criminals and working girls in and out of the hotel. Noisy unsafe environment! Conversations can be heard very cleary through the doors. Lots of drug dealings and illegal activities going on in this Lotel! The pics from this hotel site are... more
