Crystalbrook is perfectly situated in Surry Hills. It’s perfect to travel throughout Sydney, with many transport options. But there’s also a great restaurant and bar scene nearby. The rooms are cleaned and well kept, and the staff is very friendly. Great stay overall!

Really cool area if you’re looking to walk Around and eat/drink locally. Hotel is a bit hidden looks like it’s in an alley! But inside is really nice and staff are helpful and friendly. By the way if you’re bringing a car you have the option to park on the street not just at the hotels designated parking lot (Which is $$$!) And it’s not that hard just follow instructions on street signs. And it’s much cheaper! Follow the road all the way down to the right you will see a few car slots there. We got lucky and where able to get a spot all 3 days we where there wed-Fri.

Small friendly and charming neighborhood hotel, quiet but very accessible to main attraction areas. The only comment is that the bathroom is open to the bedroom so offered very little privacy.

Absolutely loved our stay at Crystalbrook Albion. Staff was very nice and helpful. They held our luggage when we arrived early and it was in our room upon check-in. Location was perfect. Close to great dining options and a short walk from central station to get around town. Loved the danishes and muffins every morning. Honour bar was nice on arrival and departure days, as it was convenient.

Excellent stay

This is a beautiful, well appointed hotel in the center of Surrey Hills. Walking distance to most everything you’ll want to see. The rooms are on the smaller side, but very comfortable and well appointed. They offer pastries fruit throughout the morning, coffee tea all day. There is a comfortable rooftop appointed with plants and flowers, French bistro chairs, and tables. It’s a perfect place to have breakfast or to work from. The staff was very nice and accommodating. I would highly recommend the Crystalbrook Hotel. I look forward to staying there again.

Great little property in an awesome part of Sydney. Really lovely appointed rooms. But a little noisy between the rooms, and rooms / hallway.
