Finding the door

Kippax Street, off Elizabeth

The building sits between Elizabeth and Chalmers, behind the light rail. Walk up from Central and you reach it in about eight minutes at an ordinary pace.

If you are arriving by train, take the Devonshire Street exit at Central and follow the signs for Surry Hills. Coming from the airport, a taxi costs around thirty dollars off-peak and takes twenty minutes outside of rush hour. The light rail stops two minutes away at Surry Hills station.

Basement parking is thirty dollars a night with eight spaces, and needs booking ahead. Unmetered street parking opens up two blocks east after six in the evening, though you may need to read the signs twice.

Why contact us direct

What you get that a booking site doesn't offer

Booking platforms take a cut and pass you a form. Booking with us gets you a person, and usually a better rate for the same room.

  • 01 A rate that already includes GST and any booking fee, so the price you were quoted is the price you pay.
  • 02 Fee-free date changes once, subject to availability, without being pushed into a new deposit.
  • 03 A real person to call if a flight is delayed at 2am, rather than an automated system charging a no-show.
  • 04 Notes on file so second stays start with what you liked the first time, without you having to repeat it.

Quick answers

Before you pick up the phone

The five questions that arrive most often, answered in plain terms so you don't have to wait for a reply.

Yes. Reception is staffed around the clock. Give us your flight number and we will watch for delays, so a late landing does not trigger a no-show charge.

Basement parking is thirty dollars a night and holds eight cars, so it usually needs booking ahead. If it is full when you ring, we will point you to the nearest commercial car park, three minutes' walk away.

Cats and small dogs are considered for the two ground-floor residences, subject to a conversation about the animal. The upper floors are carpeted, so no pets up there.

Yes, we hold without payment for seventy-two hours while you sort flights or wait for approval from whoever is paying. After that the room goes quietly back into the pool with no charge.

The two corner residences on the fifth floor, away from the lift lobby and facing north over the rooftops. Every street-facing window has double glazing, but those two rooms are quietest by a margin. Ask for them when you write.
Or just ring us

Someone picks up, whatever the hour

The phone is the fastest route. There is no menu, no callback queue and no chatbot asking whether you meant bookings or billing. A person at the desk answers it.
