Very cosy little hotel.

Cozy little hotel in a nice location. Breakfast was very "light" but the small offering was good! Tiny bit of noise from bar. Very comfortable room that was suprisingly spacious. Recommended. Would stay again.

This is an original Sydney property that has had a refurbishment. They have done a tasteful job, rooms nicely decorated, good bathroom, good air con. Clever use of space - library/sitting room boutique feel and great to have coffee on tap any time. Breakfast simple but all home made/baked. Staff super friendly and helpful. Great location walk anywhere

No water in the room, bathroom had no amenities like body wash, toothpaste etc. I would never stay there again and to think it was so costly for one night.

Very sweet boutique hotel with a bar underneath and a lovely rooftop bar at the top. Staffing was basic but staff were attentive. Simple but lovely breakfast spread. Rooms could use an update. Nothing fancy but charming and perfectly fine for one or two nights, and good value in the CBD.

Good location but room needs upgrade

Hotel is above a pub but I didn’t hear any noise. But there is only stairs to use and carry luggage. The room was spacious but it felt it needs an upgrade. Walls are marked and chair in room had stains. It felt like the room could do with a refresh

Our Stay at The Strand in Sydney

The building is three stories with rooms on the first and second levels. There is no lift but the friendly staff were more than happy to help bring the luggage to your room. The rooms were comfortable and cozy though they could do with a paint job. There is a rooftop bar that can get a little noisy on the weekend. Breakfast was continental but the yogurt, granola and pastries were all homemade and delicious. The building was just across the street from the Hop On Hop Off bus stop and a 25 minute walk to Circular Quay. Lots of dining in the area.

Small hotel in Sydney

The booking confirmation did not have a phone number to the hotel. It would have been useful. The hotel was like a European small hotel. Very friendly. Good but limited breakfast. Good beds. Limited storage. Had a safe. Very friendly. Excellent location.

The hotel is quite unique and in a great location. Our room was lovely and the Nespresso coffee machine a very welcome surprise. The breakfast was also very good. There are a lot of stairs in this hotel so it may not be suitable for some. The rooftop restaurant was cool but we really enjoyed the pub.

I loved my overnight stay at The Strand! I was exhausted after long flights from Canada and the staff were helpful and patient with great advice and directions. The breakfast was outstanding.
