We stayed here for 6 nights and loved every minute of our stay, George was a fab host, gave lots of advice and help when needed. The position is excellent within easy walking distance of all main attractions. We found lots of lovely restaurants all within 5 minutes walking. Kings X is an exciting, vibrant part of town and is... more

Hotel 59 is centrally located near many shops and restaurants. It's a safe area in Kings Cross neighborhood. The hotel itself is basic, clean and comfortable - we stayed in room 2 on the second floor and had TV, air, ensuite shower, and a little kitchenette. Spacious as well. Breakfast is included and George, the owner, is very helpful and... more

My partner and I stayed five nights at Hotel 59 in the first week of May and really enjoyed our stay. George is a great guy and very helpful. He booked our Oztrek tour to the Blue Mountains for us and arranged our pickup by the airport shuttle service. He also helped us with getting our luggage up the front... more

May 14-16 2008 was my second stay at hotel 59. (The first being April 2007) It's a clean well appointed hotel not far from the center of Sydney (Walkable to the Opera House, Australian Museum, Darling Harbour, Hyde Park, etc, etc.) As for those that are wary of the area. I've never had any problem. It's on a main street,... more

We found this hotel very clean and the location well situated for walking to all the major attractions in Sydney (Opera House, bridge, the Rocks, botanic gardens). Although Kings Cross may not have the best reputation, we felt quite safe and our room was very quiet. The breakfasts are good and the owner, George, goes out of his way to... more

Really enjoyed my 4 day stay here. Very handy location-about a 5 minute walk away from the Tube. The owner was really friendly and cooks a lovely breakfast!! You can choose what you want in their cafe underneath the hotel. Would def recommend to friends and would stay there again next time I visit Sydney. Felt safe here as a... more

We were pleasantly surpised to find such a comfortable hotel in the heart of Sydney at very reasonable rates. The room was basic but very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We especially loved the shower!!! There was a full choice of breakfasts in the little cafe downstairs. George was extremely helpful with advice on... more

For the price, $100 AUD, this hotel was terrific. It was an interesting location and just 2 blocks from the subway station. George makes a nice breakfast and there are 2 laundromats nearby, once next door and one across the street. We also found it far enough away from the partiers to be quiet. Thumbs up! more

Stayed here on our last 3 nights in Australia before moving on to NZ. Great value B&B. Rooms are small and reminded us of London type B&Bs with random furniture. George "the owner" is very "laconic" but has a dry sense of humour once he opens up! The plus points for this place are cost, location and I would rate... more
