Garden Lodge Sydney - Haberfield

The hotel is a well-maintained motel, but the surrounding neighborhood is a little dodgey. We never felt unsafe, but we felt the need to double-check items, doors, locks, etc. The hotel itself was a clean motel and was a good deal for the Sydney. It was located 3 blocks from the Summerhill Train Station and was a 10-15 minute drive to the Harbour, Opera […] House, Rocks, etc. Read more

Staff is nice and friendly, but room wasn't clean. $12 for a breakfast and $5 for DSL Internet is a ripoff. Location is good, 20 min from DT.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel reception in not manned from 11 PM to 7 AM so they do not offer wake up calls, etc. The room was not all that clean so I think the hotel was rated a little higher than reality.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I am really surprised at the previous good reviews. My bathroom was disgusting. An exterior door had been left unlocked to the room. The hotel staff was unhelpful. Not what I'd expected. But the location is fairly convenient to public transportation. And if you like walking there is a great path that goes through nice parks all the way to the coast […] that is nearby. Read more

When looking for a Sydney "airport hotel" this place popped up, and was reasonably priced. Not knowing anything about Sydney, and trusting that an AIRPORT HOTEL, was close to the airport, I booked a room for the night. WELL, this place is not close to the airport at all. The cab driver had to use his GPS to even find the place. It was a 50.00 cab ride […] and a 40 minute trip. The only thing that made it close to the airport was the fact that it was in the flight pattern, and we listened to airplanes all night! Expedia really needs to do a better job checking on locations and making sure information is accurate. Read more

Hotel had a great location, just a few miles outside of downtown Sydney on main road and close to bus stops. Very clean rooms and friendly staff. Had our own b-fast with but able to use their bowls and silverware as we needed, which was nice, without buying continental b-fast.

Decent hotel in convenient location. Road noise could be a problem but I got a back room.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel was OK, the beds comfortable and the staff was extremely helpful, however it was misrepresented by hotels.com. It was listed under airport hotels and it is a LONG way from the airport. The cab ride there was 30 minutes and cost $40. Even the cab driver asked us why we were staying so far from the airport! It is about a 10 minute walk to the […] train and is located on a very busy commercial street. We would not stay there again because my wife didn't feel safe. Read more

This is an out of city motel (motor-inn). Well kept, free parking, not easy access. The motel is just off the Parramatta road. It is very difficult to get out during morning and late afternoon hours. Housekeeping staff DOES NOT speak English at all. A challenge to get housekeeping services. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The front desk staff […] was very knowledgeable about getting around town. The motel is definitely not disabled friendly and has no elevator. Rooms are clean and roomy. The A/C needs to be replaced; it does not work well. While the motel advertises breakfast availability, it only offers milk and cereal, juices, and bread for a whopping $12. No lunch or dinner menus.

I would not recommend this hotel. Prior to my arrival in Sydney, I contacted the front desk to ask how close the hotel is the airport, and I was completely misled. I was told the hotel is less than 15 min from the airport, when in actuality, its nearly 35 minutes away from not only the airport, but any type of sight-seeing, restaurant, or any part of […] Sydney that will enrich your vacation. Its in a terrible neighborhood, and everywhere you wanna go, you have to pay a taxi at least 30-40 Australian dollars. Read more

I travel on business all over the world and this is the worst hotel I have ever experienced. Described as "Deluxe" it made a UK style travel lodge look posh! And it cost £100 for 1 night.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Nice place to stay for a short visit. Rooms were clean and well maintained. Staff were lovely and helpful with directions etc. It was noisy at night but only from other guests, not from the traffic on the road.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel is best for motoring guests who have their own car as there are no convenient restaurants nearby. When I was there the internet was struggling to work, but that is something they can remedy.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Hotel very well run,breakfast services very good especially the ability to supply your own food and use the dining area and facilities.Laundry facilities excellent and free.Would use again when in Sydney.

Surprisingly good for lower priced accommodation, beds comfortabble, good size room, bathroom basic but clean

Genuine Expedia guest review

I stayed here for 2 nights & the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The room was big & spacious. There is a nearby train station and some food shops about 10-15mins walk away. The hotel provides facility in the form of cutleries, plates, microwave & toaster in the common area. Unfortunately it is located on a very busy road and it takes nearly 30-40mins […] to reach the hotel from the Airport. Except for a fuel station with a convenience store that is open 24hours next door, there are no shops adjacent to the hotel. Read more

Bathroom wasn't clean, bed was EXTREMELY uncomfortable. If you want to stay close to the city and don't care about where you stay this motel will be ideal. Staff however were very pleasant. Very Disappointing!

My wife and I enjoyed our one weeks stay at the garden Lodge. We drove to Sydney and chose this motel because of its location, reasonable price, plus off street car parking. It is adjacent to busy Parramatta Road, but it was not difficult to traverse the streets to access the motel. Our room was furthest away from the highway and was surprising quite […] for such a busy road. The Motel has a internal atrium were you can sit and read the paper or have breakfast at an additional charge. It's quite unique for a motel and makes the building feel quite big and open. If you need to wash clothes the facilities were quite good and free. Rooms were serviced daily and toiletries were mostly replenished.You can access the public transport easily the bus a short walk the train a couple of blocks away.We did experience good restaurants a couple of blocks away at Summer Hill which was a safe walk at night. The 7 Eleven service station next door to the motel was convenient for purchasing the essentials. Read more

We spent one night at this establishment on arrival in Australia and found it to be overpriced for what it was. The 'balconey view' was quite laughable..a concrete space that provided barely room for oner person to stand as air-conditioning unit occupied most of it and the 'view' was overlooking the car park and the 711 next door. The room itself was […] very dimly lit and the dust was quite thick on the furniture. Overall disappointing! Read more

Staff was very nice and polite at all times and behind the bedroom cabinets need to be pulled out and cleaned properly. On the whole quite a nice hotel

It's up to one's comfort which we found relaxing and away from everything, and yet handy to everything or place we needed to visit. Thank you very much will visit again in the future. H&K.

We enjoyed the shared area for eating and relaxing. It had everything we needed to provide our own breakfast or snacks but there was also the option of purchasing them from the hotel. The staff were always very happy to assist us with any enquiries. The hotel was within a short walking distance of the train and bus which made getting into the city very […] convenient. Read more

I was extremely impressed with this Motel and its convenient location to the city and services. The cost of my stay was not reflected in the price which I consider to be top value. The Motel has a relaxing ambience and is very clean, bright and secure. The on-site parking is a bonus. Careful and considerate thought has been given to services. The Information […] booklet in the room is user friendly with items indexed alphabetically making it quick and easy to locate what service you may be seeking. I have already recommended this Motel to others and will certainly stay there again next time I am in Sydney. I had a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Read more

We really liked Garden Lodge - it was clean and had a lovely central dining area. We would have liked more blankets on the beds and a means of heating food in saucepans. It would have been good to use the washing machine from 7.00 am onwards. Thank you

the hotel itself was nice, but I would not recommend it because it is too far from the city proper. If you don,t have a car and have to rely on cabs, it would be too costly to make too many trips to sights in downtown Sydney. Taking the bus would be OK for sightseeing, but would not want to take the bus with luggage as you would have to transfer too […] much Read more

the breakfast deal was not what is offered, needs serious attention before being offered to stayers, eg: no coffee cups, just stale white bread for toasting, meager amounts of condiments, not very clean to look at.

My stay was awesome, I would love to have a full breakfast though. The lounge is beautiful and invites you to seat down, relax and have a drink. Thanks

Brilliant. Room was immaculate. Excellent location and the staff are really friendly.

Needed an affordable but comfortable overnight stay for a wedding nearby. The outside of the building is old but the rooms are renovated so we were pleasantly surprised. Despite being on a busy road, there was no noise disturbance. Great value for money. Would stay there again.

We only stayed at the hotel/motel at nights as wehad rushed to Sydney due to a family medical emergency . The motel was ideal for access to the requisite hospital ( Strathfield Private ) and our family'shome unit residence at Chiswick .

Genuine Expedia guest review

The rooms have been renovated and are quite reasonable.The shared living area in the centre of the motel is handy as there is access to a microwave and plates/cutlery and also gives you more space if you get tired of being in your room. Parking and location are convenient.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very clean, friendly service, appreciated the garden lounge/breakfast area.

Genuine Expedia guest review

It does what is says on the package with one slight exception and one major exception. It's not really convenient to the airport. The railway station is a bit of hike with bags and then it's a change at Central and a direct line in. Mine was an early morning flight and so this wasn't a problem but at peak times with bags it would be a hassle. Also, […] too far for a taxi (queus are horrendous in Sydney) . A hotel/back packers close to the Central station or on the airport line would make sense. Biggest beef was that unlike the Hotels.com website the hotel definitely does not have fitness facilities, if by fitness facilities one means even a small gym with one rowing machine, some free weights and bench press. There's nothing like this. I think it runs to a few deluxe rooms have a spa. Read more

Good short stay lodging at a fair price for sydney,bed a little hard get their deals and you cant go wrong.

Genuine Expedia guest review

If you are only staying one night, I would recommend that you spend the cab fare on a hotel closer to the airport that has a shuttle. The cab fare is expensive enough to warrant this. The hotel is a decent and clean 3 star and fairly close to a train station, so if you are staying awhile it would be good option for a budget traveller.
