Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a great stay at Ibis Sydney east. Considering its perched above a busy road, the double glazing meant that the sound does not infiltrate the room and I had no trouble sleeping or just relaxing in the room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Kings Cross station is very close and you can get anywhere from there. My room even had a harbour and Opera House view, to my surprise. I would definitely recommend this hotel and will stay again.

Good location except for being positioned on a steep hill. There was no curtain or blind on the window. The window didn’t seal so noise from the busy road out front was excessive. The bathroom hand sink leaked onto the floor.

Be aware that there are constructions in the building for a new AC system until end of August 2025 and the noise started sometimes at 7:30/8am! Staff was friendly and helpful but the hotel is unfortunately in such a poor condition: windows can‘t be closed properly, doorknobs are nearly broken, AC/heater didn‘t work (maybe due to the construction), elevator often not working on the 4th floor to go down. Rooms have no soundproof at all, so there‘s a lot of noise from the hall (slamming doors, people talking, music from other rooms) and, if you book the habour view rooms, from the 4-lane road just in front of your window. It‘s a cheap option and a budget hotel and you literally get what you pay for. Rooms are tiny and basic.
