This property, in hip Newtown is quiet & comfortable. It’s quite a lot older than I expected but everything was functional and clean. The complementary snacks and drinks in the foyer were a lovely addition as would have been the addition of a toaster in the room. Would stay again. I got a very good price on ‘trivago’.

Front desk was unattended when we arrived. Had to wait 15 minutes to check in. Toilet was faulty, cistern did not refill after flushing, I had to refill the cistern with the kettle. My partner used the toilet in the foyer. Told front desk that night, they did nothing. When checking out the next day, I told the front desk, said someone will be in touch. Haven't heard a peep.

We’ve stayed at The Urban Newtown a couple of times and it never disappoints. Thanks to Hotels.com member perks we got our room at a great price, check in was speedy and we were even offered to help ourselves to the fully stocked fridge in reception (beer and wine - unheard of!)
The hotel is so unique with the internal gardens. The rooms are urban style at its best, complete with concrete ceilings and exposed piping, but they’re warm and inviting. The bed was so comfortable and surprisingly quiet considering its location in the heart of Newtown.

It’s ok but it feels like a hostel. It’s noisy too tbh.. there are communal areas outside the rooms and people were sat on their phones having full volume speakerphone conversations. It’s also right under the flight path for planes near the airport and the walls are thin. It’s a great location hence the appeal but if you want a comfortable long term stay maybe head further in or out of town. The air con is very good.

We had a nice, comfortable one-night stay at The Urban Newtown, perfectly located in the heart of Newtown. It’s just a 30-minute train ride to Circular Quay and all the main Sydney sights, making it a convenient base for exploring the city. I’d recommend booking a car parking spot with the hotel in advance, it’s a shame this has to be arranged and paid for separately, but understandable given how busy the area is. The welcome drink and snacks were a lovely touch and made us feel very welcome.

Main issue was had to get out of bed to turn the light off.
The room was small but I guess that was the price i paid for.
other issue no chocalate drink packet and refilling of hot drinks haphazard e.g only brown sugar replace white sugar was not. Focus on training cleaning staff. Also no face flannels. I used the hand towel for wetting my s=face for shaving.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Urban. It was so clean, quiet, very central and had everything we needed.
The staff were friendly, helpful and so professional. They even offered us an afternoon drink. That doesn't happen very often.
Thank you for a fabulous stay.

Stayed twice now. Love the location, perfect for a show at the Enmore of just a night out in Newtown. Lacks alot of parking, but can easily find affordable overnight parking within walking distance. Great room, amazing lush plants in foyer, free beer or cider on arrival. Couldn't ask for more really

The good: staff seemed lovely, room (King Studio) was spacious, location is great
The bad: the bed was 2 singles pushed together (even though it was the “King” Studio), the bathroom smelt of sewage and was pretty tired, no sound insulation, room was super bright at night

Loved it!

Loved everything about the hotel. The location, the vibes and the really friendly staff. I was also able to leave my suitcase there for a few nights before my stay which was so helpful. My room was ready early and I was allowed to check in.
All in all a fantastic experience and I would definitely stay here again.

The room was clean and comfortable. Great location for a visit to the Enmore Theatre. Check in was quick and easy, as was parking. The website gives plenty of warning that you need to book ahead for parking, as it's limited.
Our room faced onto Station Street, which probably made it a bit quieter.
Would definitely stay here again.

Great location for staying in the inner west. Plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. Rooms are well sized, although I’m sure my queen sized bed wasn’t full length - but was wide!

Lovely facilities.. great location.. clean, affordable.. easy access… nice complementary drink on arrival…
Only problem is lack of parking… this wasn’t explained very well when booking and so by the time we were nearly in Sydney , if we hadn’t of checked website we wouldn’t have known about where to park in surrounding streets… maybe this needs to be highlighted in blurb before taking a booking…
But, staff were lovely in getting back quickly with information via email… thanks guys.. great stay!

We had a King Studio for an eight night stay at The Urban and found the room a little tight on space. We didn’t have any drawer space for clothing and for us there was nowhere to put our one suite case on the frame provided, due to this limited space. A box of tissues would have been useful in the ensuite. On the plus side we found all staff very friendly and helpful and it is a perfect location. We will definitely stay again but review room size better.

This is an excellent hotel. The staff are friendly, kind & courteous. The room I had was clean and tidy. Smack in the middle of the inner west it’s easy to reach all areas. I was here for 5 weeks and the cooking facilities in the room meant some nights I can stay in. I highly recommend. Sajal one of the managers was extremely helpful. This is a great place to stay.

Area: The property is in the best place! It’s walking distance to a huge stretch of food and retail places. The local culture and vibes are also great.

Service of hotel: Customer service was great and room was super clean. Houskeeping is provided as well.

Only issue we had was that our room; I believe there were pipes or something of the such behind the walls so unfortunately we had constant knocking and banging sounds throughout the whole time there.

Great location in Newtown

Great location, rebuilt office structure. No washcloths, AC unit was a little old and struggled. It rained a couple of times, rather hard, the design of the hotel allows water to get inside the breezeways near the rooms, bit flooded but not terribly so.
The price is a bit higher than the general area but many of the places here are hostels, this was a proper hotel.

Newtown is a very trendy area. The hotel is close to the train station which was great. The rooms were very small but clean enough. Parking was very difficult to find especially at the weekend. Was an ok hotel, don’t set your expectations high and you won’t be disappointed.

The Urban Newtown is in the perfect location if you are going to a concert at the Enmore Theatre. It has a really quirky / funky vibe and the customer service was fantastic. There are plenty of great dining options in the area and you can walk everywhere. We loved it.
