Reviews and Ratings
The capsule hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the business district, offering a great place to sleep with very helpful staff. Although the sleeping quarters lack privacy, the overall experience is fantastic.
The hotel has a private entrance, great connectivity to the city center, but the room smelled like pee, though tolerable. Close to eateries and botanical gardens, right at the middle of George St, offering a fabulous location. The dining experience was good for meat lovers.
Staying at this hotel is like hitting a jackpot - amazing location near train stations and attractions, clean and tidy rooms with just a few capsules but sadly no windows, and worth every penny for the deluxe option. Housekeeping and laundry services top-notch, but shared bathrooms clean and well-maintained. The dining offers fresh fruits, and facilities like wifi inside the capsules work great.
The Capsule Hotel offers a cool inside the capsule experience, much better than cramping with 6-8 people in a backpacker without control over air conditioning or airflow in the room. The storage for clothes and daypack is convenient. The location is amazing, being close to transport options and within walking distance of CBD attractions. However, the room was a bit small and cramped for some. The proximity to Town Hall and a mall with Coles and restaurants is a plus, but the busy George St location may not suit everyone.
I had a fun and secure stay at this hotel, like being on a cheap theme park ride, with the bonus of a peaceful environment despite the noisy street below. However, the room was full of left-behind shampoos and other low-budget toiletries, which was a bit disappointing.
I found the hotel to be perfectly suited for my one-day stay. The room had lots of power sockets for electrical devices and was nice and dark for a good night's sleep. The location was excellent, being right in the heart of Sydney and just a short walk to Oxford St and many other attractions. On the downside, it was a bit further out than some other places, but still at a decent price.
The hotel is centrally located and connected to the underground rail, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are cozy and private, offering a unique pod-style accommodation setup with a side entrance for added comfort. The dining experience features mouth-watering Hungarian beef stew, but the capsule area can be a bit too bright and noisy for some. Overall, a great value for the price in the CBD of Sydney.
