Known as Hotel Concord, this is a lovely local pub in a quiet neighbourhood. The pub has been renovated while keeping many period features like stained glass windows. The rooms are upstairs above the bar. While ear plugs are recommended, the bar noise wasn’t very loud but the pub does close late on weekends. The rooms are large, renovated and well appointed. There are different bedding combinations at different prices, but even the “single” was a king single. The rooms all have Smart TVs, a kettle, tea & coffee amenities, cupboards, chairs, lamps & air conditioners. There are several shared sex bathrooms available as well as separate toilets. The Smart TVs include Foxtel and Netflix with Optus Sports channels too, as well as free to air options. A nice touch are plantation shutters on windows which also reduced street noise. The beds however are still extremely soft & need mattresses replaced for more stable options. The pub is across the road from Concord West train station and an easy walk to the Sydney Olympic Park precinct through lovely parks and wetlands. It’s surrounded by well designed cycle paths too. The entire area is very safe for a solo traveller to walk at night back from local events. There’s free street parking on weekends and easy access to major arterials. The staff are very friendly and efficient. There’s a guest entrance direct to the street which makes accessing the accommodation very easy. The pub is surrounded by good quality eateries, and has a local supermarket, bottle shop & gym 2 minutes away. A definite must visit. The only negative was the inflated price during a major event, at least double what was expected?
