Definitely the best thing about this hotel is the staff! The rooms were basic but mostly clean, the location was convenient (thought a bit noisy at times), but it was the staff that really made our stay. We had dealings with a few different people over the three nights that we were there, and we found them to be unfailingly... More

My wife and I had a two night stay at Pensione 8 in Haymarket Sydney. The room was a double deluxe and we were delighted with the size and presentation. The room on top floor did not have front street frontage which shielded us from the hustle and bustle of George St. We had a restful time. The hotel is... More

I've stayed at this hotel a couple of times, as a business traveller living their for a month and also with large groups of friends staying overnight in the city. The location is excellent for public transport and moving around the city in general. The rooms are clean and well maintained, and the staff always friendly and helpful. My room... More

I stayed at Pensione Hotel in April, having gone to Sydney for a family wedding, stayed here with my husband for two night..we had a deluxe double room which was surprisingly large, with a decent kitchen (which we didn't really use) a fantastic rain shower and very comfy king size bed. We were on the 4th floor and didnt get... More

My partner and I stayed at the hotel for one night after finding a 'petite' room for $60 on lastminute.com. Having read the reviews on here we were not expecting too much. When we arrived we were greeted warmly at reception and made our way to our room. Yes it was small, but it had its own fridge, a very... More

I was surprised at how quiet and peaceful it was. Bed was comfortable and had all the necessary amenities. The thing i liked best was the friendliness of the staff- helped me make changes to my booking and find parking. Only suggestion would be to make the furnishings of the room less clinical and have a warmer style. But room... More

I went up to Sydney with two of my other girlfriends to see a concert. We're all 19 and 18 and are used to staying in Youth Hostels and campsites and were delighted when we got a nice deal online so that we could stay in a hotel for the same price as a hostel. It's on George Street which... More

I think this the best kept secret in Sydney. We were in Sydney for a vacation from the USA. It is a small hotel but in a great location(so small the taxi drivers didn't know where it was). About $40 dollar ride from the airport. Just outside the front door you can catch the free bus (number 555) and it... More
