5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2012 NEW

to be honest we were a bit apprehensive when we pulled up outside but the rooms were spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location was ideal for Coogee Bay. The only slight issue was trying to find a parking space but for the price this is an excellent hotel.

Second stay at Avoca. Good location and quiet. Second floor good as no one above and no a/c noise. Single room adequate, but room needed grout cleaned in shower, hook replaced in bathroom, carpet would benefit from shampoo and refrigerator in wardrobe would freeze everything despite different adjustments. Also would become very hot so needed to leave wardrobe door ajar... More

We have often stayed at Avoca Lodge over the past ten years when visiting Prince of Wales Hospital and Deanna's eye specialist in St. Pauls Street because it is in such close proximity to both places, is very reasonably priced, is of very good standard, and the staff have always been helpful. Nearly all the people we have encountered there... More

We have stayed in a few of the Sydney Lodges and by far thought the Avoca is the best.Single room was small but more then adequate for one person and it was spotlessly clean.Perfect position as i visiting Sydney Childrens Hospital.I thought it was certainly value for money for Sydney.

The overwhelming impression I got from Avoca Lodge was that, once they had your booking and deposit money, they were not in the least bit interested in you. There was no one on reception when I arrived, just an envelope with my name on it. Let myself in! Room very small, but clean and smelled nice. Small old sash windows... More

The Randwick Lodges are great places to stay, are normally affordable and generally pleasant places to stay. I recently stayed one night at Avoca Lodge, where I have stayed before and had no complaints. This occasion however I did not appreciate the $133 charge for one night's stay for a double room with no digital nor Foxtel television, and a... More

Avoca Lodge was in the perfect location for the wedding i had travelled interstate to attend. I had advised when booking that I would like a room at midday (to get ready for the wedding). Upon arrival found no room available before 1.00pm. Finally got in to find large room with stained carpets, windows that couldn't be locked, no hairdryer... More

We took our four year old to randwick childrens hospital. We stayed in the room with a double and two single beds. Satisfied for our over night trip. Bathroom is huge. I would stay again. My parents and grandparents have also stayed before too.

The only thing I could complain about is the old CRT TV with no digital tv. Everything else was very good. I have used this place a few times while visiting the children's hospital and would say it's the pick of the lodges in Randwick.

Sorry guys, but this is not a nice place. I totally agree with other comments, dirty carpets, smelly hallways and rooms which feel like they need a once over with industrial disinfection. The obvious drug addict trying to check-in before we did should have been the give away, mental note! We paid $150.00 for the larger room with a double... More
