Suzanne
This was a 2 night stay. A last minute trip to go to shows at The Enmore & at the Opera House.
Reasonably easy to access from Central Station, but I'd recommend the walk from Erskineville station. ( Google maps took me to Newtown Station which was a more complex route)
The staff are all welcoming and friendly. Easy check in at the bar, & you receive a drinks voucher for either the Erko bar or Fleetwood Macchiato across the road 😘 It's a hotel: there are steps to the accommodation area
The room was clean and comfortable. There are multiple bathrooms, so always a toilet or shower free when needed. There's also a kitchen, so boomers like me can make their porridge and earl grey first thing.
I stayed during the early stages of the soccer World Cup, so the bar was super busy in the evening. It's a dog friendly venue. All the rooms are named after local doggy identities. Just be aware not to tread on anyone's tail after lunch.
A short walk to the Enmore for shows. Very close to King Street for all the shopping and transport offerings there. Erskineville train station is a few hundred metres away & Newtown train station is an easy walk too.
This was a really fun stay.

We stayed here after watching a show at the Enmore Theatre. All the staff were great and check-in/out was so easy.
Honestly, there's a little noise from downstairs but it was quiet after 11pm and we didn't mind because we were getting back late from the show anyway.
Super easy walking location to shops, restaurants, the train station (like 10 mins to Central) and the Enmore Theatre.

Great location. Basic, clean functional bedrooms. Refurbished shared bathrooms, basic kitchen. Drinks voucher on arrival. Exceeded expectations. Not noisy (mid-week booking). Would happily book again.
Peter
I enjoyed my stay with my friends @Erko Hotel over a birthday weekend, it is an old pub and it comes with pub 4 star life with share bathrooms,kitchen ect. The room i had was spacious ,clean and air conditioned with a nice outlook. Staff were friendly and helpful the food was great that we ordered downstairs along with the tunes and entertainment. The vibrant lifestyle of Erko and Newtown.are recommended if you like alt and it wasn't as noisy upstairs as i had read about. There is a A.I generated lousy review i had read causing me alarm however after arrival i didn't agree with what had been raised and i believe this should be ignored . I think it was terribly unfair to the Erko and people who like to stay in this type of accommodation. Peter. AU

No hot water in the shared bathrooms. Management at this hotel has spent a lot of money doing up accom and putting an air conditioner in each room but no running hot water in the bathrooms.
Not acceptable in 2026 to not have hot water for a shower especially with extreme heat.
Tv in room did not work either.
There is no excuse for being sub-standard. Housekeeping should be checking hot water in bathrooms each day and management should be getting hot water fixed. Housekeeping should also be checking the operation of tvs on a daily basis as well or at least when people check out of rooms.
Improvement is needed.

Great little pub - reasonably quiet, nice and clean AND close to just about everything.
The only improvement I could suggest is darker window blinds to keep the morning light out a bit.
It reminds me of an outback Australian pub where the meals are great, the beer is cold, and the accomodation does the job.

The room was really spacious and fit our family of four. Shared bathrooms was not ideal but the location was great. Was probably a bit noisy until the bar downstairs closed, at around 11pm.
Nathan

Stefan
The guy in room frankie, sang as loud as he could feom 2.30am in the morning. With the tv on full volume. 2 days in a row. Very unpleasant.
I understand its a pub accommodation. But thats too much.

Everything were how we have expected but, there was one thing that was confusing.
We have reserved for 2 rooms. Which one of the rooms would've been with a king size bed for my husband and I. We ended up with the smaller room which we had to squeeze our selves on the smaller bed.
Downside for that smaller room was there weren't no mirrors so we had to go the the restroom to get ready. Which we still have to share with other occupants.
The larger room was given to our companion which she was the only one in that room. She had the larger bed and a mirror in the closet which her closet was larger than ours and had 2 night stands with 2 keys vs my husband and I had to share 1 key and share a nightstand as well. I was not too happy about this part.
Overall, the managers were super nice and accomodating which they have allowed us to leave our baggages until it was time for us to leave for the airport.

Very tired, dated rooms, no real care taken. Basin was chipped and rusted. Blind wouldn't open. The duvet inner between two loose sheets was very stained. Lights on side table dirty. No battery cover for TV remote, TV up bear ceiling. Shower dripping. Urine on floor of shared toilet this morning. No aircon. Very noisy.
Rachel
Although rooms a bit run down - very clean and comfortable
Staff here all brilliant thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Happy Yorkshire Day!!

Too many digs in the hotel while you are eating and very noisy all night banging and yelling.
Sarah
Clean, comfortable and convenient. Nice neighbourhood and a short walk to trendy Newtown. The pub downstairs is great. Shared bathroom was fine. No dramas here & would definitely stay again
Ben
Awesome place, staff were excellent. Our band stayed there and we’ll be back next tour!
Caleb
Nice bar. But a VERY average experience as a hotel... The room we stayed in looked like it had not seen a proper clean/bit of TLC in over 6 months, grimey and dusty.
Very humid night and the portable AC unit was broken, with no replacements available, had to resort to opening the window. Base of window frame then breaks off immediately. Exposing old, rotten wood and rusty nails, and then would not stay open without slamming down every 15 minutes.
Dead cockroach in cabinet..
Not the most inviting experience, quite nasty. Felt more like a run down hostel. Not worth the $250.00 p/night.

Crazy experience
The hotel duvet feels like it hasn't been cleaned in 10 years. One of the duvets has serious blood stains, which is disgusting! The sheets also have blood stains. It's really scary. The staff couldn't provide more duvets and could only offer sheets. There is no private bathroom.
Kyle
Spent a few nights here. The room is not bad for a budget room. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Only a quick train ride to the city. The room can get a little warm but you do get a fan. Overall a nice place to stay cheap for a few nights

Dean
Great location. Close to Newtown and trains
Michael
A great place with the inner west vibe in a central location just outside of the cool place of Newtown. Highly recommended, the staff are fantastic. Only thing is that the streets are bit narrow and parking can be a bit hard to find might help to park a bit further and walk to the pub and hotel. Everything else is excellent.
Ivan
Very friendly staff, great service, clean and price friendly room
Darian
The Erko has nice, helpful and efficient staff. Lovely leafy neighbourhood of mostly Victorian cottages. There are a variety of shops, pub and cafes with good coffee and food - although the hotel itself is quite popular and the menu there has a high review rating. The hotel its self on the second floor is about 15 rooms and generally very quiet, a secure back entrance with two flights of stairs up. There is a kitchen facility with some bits and pieces to go with your own breakfast, tea/coffee cutlery, hot water jug, fridge etc. Generous with towels, toiletries and comfortable beds. They are share bathrooms so if that is not something you can handle it won't be for you. But they were always spotless, and nothing was ever occupied when I needed them, at any time I've stayed. Be aware the bathroom with the bath, the shower takes a few minutes to get hot water. My only grumble this time around is this. It is the third room I've stayed in over time and it didn't have a chair, or desk, or mirror. I mean c'mon at least a chair. Partly my fault as I need to start underlining things I need as a less mobile person but a chair's pretty basic. Apart from that it is great value for money and you can't beat the location close to Newtown (5 min walk), Central (5 min train trip, then a couple more minutes to get on he city loop). King St and Enmore Rd have more pubs, cafes, cocktails bars, Dendy cinema, takeaways than you could possibly need or sample.
Oliver
It’s upstairs in a pub! Just a small room with a bed, lamp & tv, that’s it!
I’d say value for money if it was $60-$80/night
But at $143/night in the off season I’d want my own toilet with a door I could close without having to stand on the toilet.
And I’d like to feel more confident that my room door lock was not about to fall off

SHARED BATHROOMS! Be prepared to share a bathroom with everyone else! Room was clean though. Pretty noisy- above a bar
Roie
Such a great vibe, sweet staff and lovely clean rooms, bathrooms, kitchen.
Alan Peter
It met expectations
It is a budget stay with a shared bathroom. If you know and accept that, then you’ll be happy. The bed was very comfortable. No a/c but there is a fan. There is a shared, clean kitchen. There were no dramas. The location is really good and convenient to trains, cafes etc. I have no complaints. The hot water was great (but it takes a couple of minutes for the hot water to arrive so be patient).
Ross
The area is very interesting- the hotel is nice enough on the outside. The accommodation smelled like sewage and there was only one toilet for all the rooms. Early in the morning a plumber started drilling and trying to clear the faulty toilet - next to my room. Considering the cost per night - this was not a very happy experience. Room was clean and kitchen was clean. It just stank really bad. The bar was dog friendly which might appeal to dog owners. Overall I did not think it was worth the cost.
Tim
ok
Elizabeth
Very cool.
Jamie
Quiet suburb just a few hundred metres down from the bustle of Newton. Plenty of cafes and local neighbourhood vibe. The pub under the rooms was pretty good, dog friendly, and very busy on a Sunday arvo. This is pub accommodation, so don’t expect too much. The room was very big and clean. The bed was a double, not a queen. Had a toilet and hand wash basin in the room. The big disappointment was that the communal showers had zero hot water. We had cold showers.
Andrew

Price is good and a friendly staff member helped me carry my luggage upstairs. The neighborhood is great! Hotel is above a pub, I was there on a Thursday night and it was quiet. No air conditioning, there is a ceiling fan. It was hot the night I was there. Sheets were clean, carpets were stained. My room had an en-suite with sink and toilet, shower down the hall. Hotel was clean, but pretty dated.

Clean & cheerful; big room with window and fan; kitchen well equipped; no hot water in shower (but it was early) … no mirrors for shaving but for the price the whole was acceptable.
Darren
We tried to stay at the Erko however the room wasn't in a fit state, sockets hanging off the wall and stains on the toilet door which looked suspiciously like blood sprayed on it - We didn't bother unpacking and the hotel offered us a refund given the state of the room / they didn't have any others available despite the fact our booking had a no refund clause. 3 months later now and still no refund so the Manager stops taking calls. I'd avoid it totally. To be fair the duty manager on at the time did offer to help us find other accommodation / a meal as recompense.
Paul
Great little room with a comfy bed in a great location.
The only issue I had was the rooms do not have air conditioning, so the room was sweltering hot (I stayed late January), and even with the window open the room did not cool down in the slightest. There is a ceiling fan, but it just pushed the hot air around. I would say it was probably the worst nights sleep I’ve ever had, but that was purely from the heat. Everything else about the place was comfy/convenient.

While being a marvel of the animal kingdom Cockroaches are not the most welcome of guests. Despite this, they inhabit the erko in abundance. I saw more roaches than people.
The location however, is impossible to ignore. The proximity to Newtown and lively pub beneath are the venues biggest selling point.
Ultimately, if you don't mind fighting off a few roaches in the shower, you will enjoy your stay.

The Erko is a little gem! The friendly and helpful staff are genuine in their desire to ensure you have a good stay. And we did! The room and shared bathrooms were clean and just what we needed for our weekend trip to Sydney.
William
In town for a 30th so I just needed a solid overnighter. No frills pragmatic affordable stay for a couple. Staff were great, check it was very quick and straight forward. Would book again in a pinch no dramas.
No air or heating - wasn't an issue for us this stay as it was a temperate time of year, but I can imagine it could get really cold or hot, but who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
