Great location to everything, friendly staff, rooms really could do with re modernising but had clean white sheets and running hot water. Only spent minimum time in the room. It was a budget room, so you had what you paid for.. Would I go again??? Yes

Back in Sydney for another show. The hotel is pretty tired ...... but we were out and about during the day so didn't mind. It is convenient to everything: Paddy's Market, China Town, Entertainment Centre and next door to the Capitol Theatre. The price for one night including breakfast was $139. Breakfast was generous and the staff were friendly. It's... More

Right the rooms need a major major overhaul. They are just weathered. I got double room in this hotel for 79 dollars a night on one of the booking sites. If asked would I stay there again for that money, my answer would be yes. The value for location is unreal considering how expensive Sydney is. I've stayed in hotels... More

Preface: I consider this a 5* star stay taking into account value for money/staff/etc. This isn't a 5* hotel by any means but the experience was great. Price: $79 special through an accommodation site, which I was very happy with. Paying rack rates, I wouldn't be pleased with, but this was great for the price. Staff/service: The staff were really...

Since we could not find any hotel within Sydney CBD (they're all fully booked), we were left with one choice: Capitol Square Hotel. I thought it's as funky as its surrounding, but it was a shocking experience. There's only one good point: great location. Full stop. Our room had twin beds. Both beds didn't have head board (but we could... More
