Wynyard Hotel

It’s pub style accomodation, don’t expect the Ritz! For the price (a third of what you pay in a hotel chain) the accomodation was clean, staff friendly/helpful and the location was central to everything. There were two individual lockable bathrooms (with large shower/toilet) per six rooms per floor. We never really had to wait and could always pop down a level if needed. A kitchen had cereal/milk for guests and facilities to cook dinner, handy for families. There were lots of stairs and no lift - maybe leave the 25kg suitcase at home. You will need to wear earplugs to sleep (ask at the bar if you forgot them). If you sit by the window with a cuppa on a Friday/Sat night you’ll watch a parade of people going to dress up parties (what is it with that Sydney?). There’s two convenience stores across the road open pretty much all the time. Our family room had a fan and heater but no AC. The bar fridge was cold and there were tea/coffee making facilities. We had fresh towels daily. The pub downstairs had some good specials but there are plenty of places within walking distance.

Not so good Allergic reaction to something (more then likely bed bugs) extremely itchy, had to leave early and stay elsewhere

Did not stay here but had dinner here on 2 nights out of 4 in Sydney !!! The food was on a par or better than a very expensive Barangaroo restaurant The difference was the Wynyard is a small corner pub with about 4 small crowded tables and the cook works in a miniscule work area at the end of the bar doing an amazing job. The staff were just brilliant, friendly and helpful, the pies were great ( I had the pie on 2 nights) The fish and chips were top class It was freezing cold outside and warm and noisy inside ( there was some kind of special football game on the second night or something. The state of oranges ???? )
