Sydney Junction Hotel

If you are a backpacker then this hotel is right for you. By the way, you'd better have $200 cash in your pocket or they will demand to photocopy your credit card! Are you kidding me SJH? The reason, they suspect the people that stay there will, 'trash the room! Apparently it does happen. Also, be prepared for hallway doors that will bang away until late, and start again early. If you are not a backpacker, stay else where! PS. The staff are friendly and helpful!

Fantastic location in the heart of beaumont street Hamilton, neat and cosy rooms, easy cheack in cheak out experience and excellent polite helpful staff, will stay again 🤙

Handy location. Simple rooms. Need shelves in the shower’s for clothes as floor puddles everywhere

The food was really good, nice clean pub, friendly staff. our accommodation was just 4 beds couldn't find the remote for the tv, cups and coffee and tea no jug no common room no cold water tap in bathroom, we were passing through and didnt expect much but was over $200 for one night travelled with 2 kids was very dissapointed, Staff were great

Pros: -beds are comfortable and sheets, towels and room carpets look clean -parking was convenient (in the back of the building) -the AC conditioning worked properly and there was a mini fridge in the room Cons: -it wasn’t mentioned in the description of those hotel on ******* that for the price over $150 US dollars you get a room with no shower/toilet . The shared amenities on the floor include two shower stalls, two toilets and one (!) sink for 15 rooms. The showers have NO HOT WATER! - The rooms are tiny and very minimally furnished, which would be totally fine with us, but the walls are paper thin and there was a huge gap in the glass shades on the window, so that for the whole night it felt like trains from outside of the street and people in the corridor are going right through your room. There was a small TV above one of the beds but no remote, so I am not sure if it was working. Also there were sticks of instant coffee and sugar in the room but no kettle or coffee maker. Why would you need coffee supplies then? - Half of the night starting around 2 am someone (without a key card I guess) was banging the door downstairs trying to get in. - The rooms have COCKROACHES!!! If you read my other reviews for other hotels that I have stayed at in 40 countries you would understand that I am not a picky traveler, but this Australian hotel I will remember for a long time . We were so “impressed” that we have changed our plans and instead of staying in Newcastle left

The worst thing to find out is roaches, once that happens, everything else well done is just not enough

we had a good stay! Our room was clean, showers as well not too much pressure but hot ! We had dinner downstairs food was good, good service as well I recommend for a short stay! Just a little bit noisy

a very basic accoimodation on top of a pub, shared bathroom and showers, not for me, the pub staff where very friendly

Wish it had been longer!
