I wouldn't stay here again. For the positives, the bed linens were very clean and the room didn't smell dirty. You'd get a smelly room and smelly bed in addition to everything below for some budget hotels in the US.
The neighborhood around this hotel could be nice and has some interesting buildings, but it's absolutely filthy which makes you feel like you're staying in a sketchy area, which combined w the hotel doesn't make you want to come back at night after a day of exploring. The bathroom has mold and grime on the tile&baseboards. When you're sitting on the toilet, you hit your forehead on the wall. The shower floods through the glass door. Housekeeping does clean it up and leave you fresh towels every day, but still. The room is presented as having 1920s charm, but in reality, it's old, dingy and cramped. There is no thermostat in the room, so you're reliant on central temperature control.

Basically in the centre of Kings Cross makes it easy to get around, if you need to move into the city to suburbs, the train station is only short walk away.

The room, though a bit small, was comfortable.

Disappointed

When planning our trip to Sydney, we contacted the hotel in advance about parking. At no point were we informed that the “discounted” parking (a mere $4 off) only allowed a single entry and exit—something that turned out to be very inconvenient to rent a car for someone who doesn’t know parking is IMPOSSIBLE in the CBD.

Our room was also noisy, and to top it off, we were woken up at 5am the next morning by a terrible smell coming from the café downstairs.

Staff were absolutely lovely, parking was easy, the building itself is beautiful and the rooms are clean and nice but the bathroom needs some fixes. The shower was fine, but the water pressure of the sink was inconsistent and would randomly go on/off so you got water on you every time you washed your hands. There was lots of big scratches, scrapes and Landlord Specials on the bathroom walls. Nothing that effected functionality but it looked sad and run down. There was also dark spots on the roof.

We stayed at No9 Springfield for four nights. As many other reviewers have mentioned, the rooms are quite small, although beautiful, and the bathroom was particularly cramped, making it uncomfortable. The shower stall was missing a seal along the bottom, so every time we showered, water would spill onto the bathroom floor. I mentioned this on the first day, but it wasn’t addressed during our visit, which was disappointing.

The hotel does have a lobby with a small cafe and a patio, which is a nice spot to relax. I felt that this space could be better utilized if guests were allowed to bring their own food and drinks from the grocery store across the street, which would have been more convenient and enjoyable.The hotel is conveniently located near Kings Cross Station, but it’s also in an area that was previously known as a red-light district, which may not be ideal for everyone. Given my experience, I’m not sure I would stay here again if I were to return to Sydney.

GO SOMEWHERE ELSE
Manager Mathew was extremely rude on arrival. Reserved a king suit with king bed and single bed but on arrival around 4pm was told my room had been given away and therefore we were given a room with a pull out sofa bed and king bed. Problem was the sofa bed couldn't be retracted, it covered the fridge and coffee area of the room and left the three of us with 30cm of space between the beds. Extremely small room FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GO !!!! We left and went to a hotel 400m away which was fantastic in comparison.

The No.9 Springfield is in a great location just outside the CBD with public transport options to getting around. The rooms are fresh but retain a sense of heritage that gives character to the building. We have stayed there a few times prior to City2Surf in Sydney and have found the staff always accommodating and have spare rooms set up for a shower after the fun run.

The room was a small, barely big enough for a double bed and desk. The bathroom was very small, hard to move around in. Though the room was small, the bed was very comfortable, and it was convenient in the middle of Kings Cross, close to the train station.

Though the room was a bit small, for an overnight stay before City2Surf it was perfect.

Stay @No.9 Springfield Hotel

The overall stay was ok. Comfy bed. Shower and toilet area is very small. Shower head is not adjustable so I had to bend as I’m 6ft tall. The staff advised me that the hotel manager is cranky and not in a good mood most of the time so any request for upgrade (if available/possible) may not be approved.

Perfectly Delighted:

I recently stayed at No9 for business purposes, and as someone accustomed to more corporate-style hotels, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Due to the recent visit of Taylor Swift, many of our usual accommodations were either booked or exceeded our company budget. No9 provided a delightful and wonderfully decent stay that exceeded my expectations. I would gladly choose to stay at No9 again in the future.

The vibe of the place and the surrounding area is really very good.
The proximity to the train station at Kings Cross is brilliant.
Having the Harris Farm food outlet directly across the road open from 7:00am to 10:00pm is really very handy - no need to go hungry.
Dinner at Pizza Boccone and dessert at Rivareno were both top class delicious experiences. Both open late too.
And to top it off the staff at Springfield are just so professional and friendly at the same time.
What's not to like?
Well done No 9 Springfield!

Smallest bathroom in the world

The check in process was very stressful. We arrived at 9.45 and it looked closed and the main phone was off the hook despite us being told we had until 10pm to arrive. My mother phoned the emergency number and the guy did show up from the office opposite reception so I don’t know why he couldn’t hear us calling out. The bed was comfy but the bathroom was ludicrous! I think there is more room in my under stair cupboard !

Not a quiet hotel, take ear plugs. There is no double glazing or soundproofing so you can hear absolutely everything from the corridors, the rooms upstairs and outside. I was woken up multiple times each night by other guests stomping above my room or moving through the corridor. One of my bedroom windows had a metal grate above it which opened straight to the outside and couldn’t be close so it was like sleeping with a window open and the Kingscross area is not a quiet place and the loud birds wake up early. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Had one lovely night at No9 Springfield. The staff were very friendly and the little cafe at the front was great for coffee. The location is amazing! Everything is in walking distance and the train station is a 2 min walk. There are endless options for food, coffee and gelato, so the location is definitely prime! The only thing that was a bit difficult was getting to the 4th floor. We had friends that had a room on the 4th floor and they had to take the lift to level 3 and then climb two flights of stairs with all their luggage. If you had little luggage it wouldn't be a drama but 3 big bags was a bit difficult.

The bed was comfortable. There was no hot water in the shower I had to stand on top of a chair to lock the sash window. We had arranged a late check out and the front desk staff member harassed us outside the building accusing us of playing the system. We think this is because we reported to her our cold showers which she did not believe saying that no one else had said this Her attitude was very unsettling
