We spent three nights at this hotel and were pleased by our stay. For a city visit, location is key, and this had a great location. We could walk to the CBD in 15-20 minutes (depending where we were going), 40 minutes to the Opera House, 3 minutes to the Kings Cross metro stop, 5-7 minutes into Darlinghurst for good... more

Whats not to say. Couldnt have wished for a better place to stay. Really lovely people, great breakfast served daily, from a large menu. Fab coffee! We had a large spacious room at the front of the hotel, which was always kept clean, bathroom had lovely shower quite powerful. Set off the main strip of kings cross, with two lively... more

The rooms are old, the hotel isn't much, but the location and the price are awsome. George is a fantastic host. You are in a bad part of the city, but close to everything at a resonable rate. more

This hotel is great for the price. As always, there are some tradeoffs -- but what do you expect? The rooms are a bit small and dated. But there was a fridge. One practical matter: know that the wireless does not reach all the rooms. This was actually important to us, and we were disappointed not to have it. It... more

We stayed at the Hotel 59 for 5 nights at the end of August 2009 and really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were very clean and in good shape; the beds were large and comfortable. The bathroom was clean and fresh and had a good shower. We stayed in a double room -- it wasn't huge, but had plenty of... more

I stayed here for 3 days in August 2009, and found this place just fabulous. The location is in a fairly middle class neighborhood, close to plenty of nightlife in the King's cross area. It's not too close that you can't get a decent night's sleep, though. The breakfasts were great, quick and access to the heart of Sydney was... more

Great neighborhood, great location, great value-we had the"honeymoon suite"-the front bedroom which was spacious with sitting room facilities. Each morning was started with a delicious breakfast (included in the price). George, our host, was our tour guide, transportation advisor and all-round friendly presence. This is a Sydney Best Bet!
