The Central Private Hotel is not a high end property but there were a number of things that made it stand out. Location, virtually right next to Central Station. Staff, a late booking and check in, not a trouble to the staff member. Facilities, the room had all facilities I required. Cleanliness, spotless, I must admit I was impressed, especially with the shine on the sink.

Top notch cleaning skills, I could touch everything smooth and walk barefoot that clean. White fresh linen even the bedcover looked and smelled clean. Our double unit has window with fresh air, kitchens sink, utensils and kettle. TV and Aircon which we didn't use. The reception people were great and gave extra blankets and it was nicely cool in July 2025. No lifts but thankfully stairs and common areas are all lit. Oh and the toilet and showers were a common area too. Thankfully it was quiet and deserted in the hall every time we went to the bathroom which were clean. Shower water was hot which was great and we found towels and soap, tea coffee sugar, fridge, mirror, bedside table, desk and chair. Wardrobe. i paid 128 a night.

The room had a basic ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, small writing desk, air condition and wardrobe with hangers which served my requirements perfectly for a 4 day stay. The common area carpets were stained and room furniture was beaten up a bit but everything was generally clean, on first floor with no lift which was OK for me - reception offered to carry up my small suitcase to my room I declined. A cheap priced room that served my purpose very well, close walk to trains buses and tram.

I booked the room and they did not let me in saying it is not booked. The staff was not nice toward me and I have mental disability. Not nice behaviour. My mum paid for me and they did not let me in.

It was super easy to get around with this as home base. It was also really nice to have a sink in the room. AC was delightful after a long day outside in the sun. Very easy to find if you are arriving at the Central Station & you basically walk straight up the main street to get to the main tourist spots. Rooms were older, but clean and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the mattress. Glad they also included a "Do Not Disturb" sign for those days you're having a nap or something & don't need anything done.

Absolutely brilliant! It is a great place to stay, friendly staff, It is not a fancy hotel & the rooms are quite plain, however there is Complimentary tea & coffee & a bar fridge that kept drinks nice & cold, the location is very convenient, it is across the road from central station, Woolworths is a 100m walk, plenty of local pubs for a drink or a meal. Fantastic value for money & I really loved my stay, I highly recommend staying here, The only down side is a few flights of stairs to get to the 2nd floor, no elevator, but it is not too bad. A bedside lamp would be nice for the rooms too, as the overhead fluro light is quite bright. I would gladly stay here again if in Sydney.

This proprietor photographs identification with the statement this is a police requirement. Records are not kept securely. The practice is not stated before booking money is taken. Identification should be through sighting documents not photocopying and keeping insecurely.

Great location across from central station. Property was average, but a good price. Check in was quick and the guy very friendly. Got upgraded from a single to a double room. Room was spacious and included a fridge and kettle. There was construction in a nearby building which was loud. Otherwise good stay.
