I was given the ambulant room for some reason even though I am not in a wheelchair. The bathroom had a terrible smell about it. There were no tea or coffee facilities in the room - you had to go to a common kitchen. Yuk. The bed was comfortable. The room had no outlook- the only window was opaque because it fronted the side street where people walked by. Very claustrophobic. Also lots of stairs and no help with bags early in the morning if you needed it.

We stayed in a room at the backyard. There were tables there for people to sit and it was very noisy in the mornings and at nights since there was no sound proofing.
Our room was cleaned the next morning, but the day after that they didn't come and service our room.
The receptionist didn't give us any information about breakfast, wi-fi, parking, etc.
It's at a very central location, close to public transport, shops, supermarket and restaurants and cafes.

The property being a historical building for absolutely gorgeous, but in staying that, the services within the room were dated, low pressure with hot water and took a while for it get hot once turned on. Rooms were on the small side, on the main road, which is handy, with the downside of the noise from traffic and road works. Rooms are not acoustically built.

The Lurline is in a great location as the Light Rail is right across the road which took us directly to the SCG & also to the city is needed.

The building has a lovely feel to is due to its age however, the bathroom in our room was very small and challenging to have a shower.

Property had excellent location for our needs, access to UNSW. However, the property looked much better online than in person, and was not particularly good value for money. Some unexpected surprises - no elevator, AC was not running in our room on arrival on a hot day, bathroom fan super noisy and switches on with light. Positive points were location - close to UNSW, shops, transport - and that it had good sound insulation - quiet rooms despite being on a busy intersection.

No shelter, slippery tiles and tiled steps to reach room. Unable to pre-book parking until morning of arrival, then to be told there is none available. While the property looks lovely and is presented well, overall we paid a lot of money for its location and nothing else.

This is a beautiful historic property in a fabulous location. We have stayed here previously and enjoyed our stay. This time however we were allocated a room right at the entrance of the property across from the lobby. Not only were we dealing with traffic noise, which we understand is outside the control of the owners of the property, the noise extending late into the night and early morning from people entering and leaving the property really impacted on our stay and sleep. The room needs a refresh, the beauty of the building and architecture of the room is let down by the tired decor and marked walls.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Lurline, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm welcome and professionalism of the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

The room was simply fantastic – spacious, well-appointed, and impeccably clean. I loved the rich heritage of the building & its features.

The hotel's location couldn't have been better. Situated in a prime area, it was easy to explore the city's attractions and dining options. Plus, the convenience of nearby transportation made getting around a breeze.

What truly set The Lurline apart, though, was the exceptional level of service. The staff was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly attentive to my needs. They were always available to offer recommendations or assist with any inquiries, making me feel valued as a guest.

Overall, my stay at The Lurline was nothing short of exceptional. From the great room to the convenient location and top-notch service, it's clear that this hotel knows how to deliver a memorable experience. I can't wait to return for another visit and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and welcoming stay in

Hi I stayed at the property for a couple of nights over Australia Day . The main issue one could have is not getting a shared balcony unless beforehand request it . The room I thought I was getting featured a balcony at the front but in reality was given a room at the back on the side just a room. Upon going back to reception and calmly detailing the situation we went from a room, to the best room imo.

The only other issues for me were inside the air conditioner unit was a build up of blackish mould on the internal plastic airflow to the room. I’d prefer if it was white , no ill effects or mould smell was noticed. And finally the refrigerator is not a compressor type so it can take more than 24 hours to cool some 1.5 litre bottles of drink, an upgrade here would be easy and positive.

On the plus side transport to the city is easy on the L2 tram . Parking no issue for free street parking . Noise well the front rooms would be noisier than the rest but that is expected and the noise is minimal as well sound proofed . Bedding , temperature and fresh air perfect.

Would I stay again?, most definitely .

We have stayed here several times- the price is good, the location is excellent- with the light rail only across the road- so easy to access the city cheaply, rather than driving in. There is a small shopping centre up the road a short walk, with Harris Farm, Woolies and quite a few smaller shops. The location is a big win.
The rooms are lovely- always clean and comfy with everything you need to stay. My only ever so slight gripe with the rooms is the bathrooms are very small...really small shower spaces, but it's not a deal breaker for me.
Parking is limited, but there is plenty of street parking around, but they do have time limits on them (overnight you are good until 9am).
There is a gorgeous courtyard with guest access only, which is a really lovely space to sit and relax.
Be careful of some of the access steps- I have contacted the motel to let them know...they are different depths, so you must navigate them slowly.
Reception staff are friendly and welcoming. Cannot fault them making a smooth check in/check out process.
Too small issues for me (the showers and the stairs), but as I said- not a deal breaker for us- we'll be back at some stage I hope!

This was a very comfortable stay with a hike balance of hotel amenities and extras that made it feel like a home away from home. I was pleasantly surprised with access to full kitchen and washer and dryer, extra bathroom to use for shower if needed. Greta location at the end of the L2 line at Randwick that effortlessly takes you into Circular Quay downtown Sydney. Transportation is very inexpensive and easy to navigate. Hotel location is also a short bus ride away to both Coogee Beach and the popular Bondi Junction. Highly recommend!

I have stayed before and given five stars for a heritage room. This time I booked a studio. I would advise booking the heritage or courtyard rooms as a couple of the studio rooms were dark and uninviting, and had no view because they were under street level. However, I am giving five stars for the staff who were accommodating and friendly and managed to move us to a better room. Would definitely stay again in one of the better rooms.
