The Grace is a beautiful hotel within easy walking distance to Sydney CBD. The rooms were large and updated. Our only disappointment was that when we arrived late morning although the room was ready, they wanted to charge us$50.00 to check in early.

Mariners Court, remember this place! The room was fine, pleasant bed, tv, hot water as needed, all good.
And the room had a little balcony! All the rooms had balconies; sit outside a minute in the pleasant breeze! And down the hall a lounge area! Relax, you’ve been touring and traveling, so sit! Take a load off.
But…
But……..!
Breakfast!!! And a GOOD Breakfast! Provided gratis.
We stayed at three different places in Sydney in April & May. The other two were each more expensive, and then you go...

my son Leonardo stayed for many days at the hotel, and was very well treated, highly praised the location, the accommodations and especially the entire staff. He really loved the place.

We had been in Australia for a few weeks and only needed a place to crash that was downtown and cheap for two nights before our flight home. This was perfect. No frills. Small room. Reception was only open when we showed up. Convenient bar downstairs takes care of anything afterwards. Their fish and chips is good. Walking distance (for us- late 40s active) to 2 harbor areas. Did I mention the bar downstairs? Bottle shop (liquor store) attached and a large size, for a downtown, grocery store...

Very convenient location, food market a block away as well as well as the bus stop for easy transportation around the city! Highly recommend to anyone! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Staff was super friendly, upgraded my friends and I to a much preferred room and were super easy to talk to and ask questions of, great host! Location was prime next to Coogee; just a bummer that lockers had to be paid for

I am a female and was traveling solo. Stayed in a 4 person co-ed room with 3 male roommates and had a great experience. I slept on the top bunk and the bed was extremely comfortable. The locker space was spacious. I fit my carry-on suitcase and full backpack along with some other bags in there. The room and spaces were clean. I packed my own lock and a small noise machine. If you are a light sleeper, would definitely recommend bringing ear plugs/eye mask, but otherwise everyone was respectful...
