I'm sorry to pile on to this Lotel-bashing string of reviews but apparently the only satisfaction I'm going to reap from my own unique Lotel experience is composing this ode to quite possibly the most dismal, depressing, heart-breakingly dreary hotel in Sydney. First off, I am not a fussy traveller, nor am I put off by the usual urban hum... more

Worst hotel i stayed!! I rather you sleep on the streets or at the airport!!! Dirty, doggy! Lots of criminals and working girls in and out of the hotel. Noisy unsafe environment! Conversations can be heard very cleary through the doors. Lots of drug dealings and illegal activities going on in this Lotel! The pics from this hotel site are... more

I have read the reviews of this hotel - and I think that they are all correct.. - I booked a room at L'Otel through Wotif website... - the rate was good for Kings Cross and the hotel is central. Would I stay there again, well I am not sure...! The check in area is small and cramped and a... more

I found L'otel on wotif.com, it was listed with a pretty good rate ($69/night) and is in a decent location, and the online pictures made it look both modern, attentive and cozy. I showed up and wandered into the little hallway that serves as their reception. No one was there...I waited about 5 minutes...finally someone arrived and checked me into... more

I could not believe how opposite and misleading the website was to the reality of this place. The pictures on the website make this place decent where as in reality: - the room was dirty with the carpet peeling - the lightbox was missing, the shower curtain was too short so it flooded the bathroom after each use - the... more

Unless you like finding syringes under your bed, I suggest that you stay at another hotel. I think that the top level of this hotel must have bigger or nicer rooms. But if you pay for a standard or queen room, watch out! The rooms ARE NOT as advertised! I was taken to a tiny, windowless room. The bathroom was... more

We (as many others have) expected a decent room, nothing too flash for the price. When we checked in: 1. There was no parking. Ok can deal with that. 2. Room was tiny. Near windowless it was a wedge shaped little thing with a tiny bathroom. 3. Room was not as described. We paid for a Queen size bed in... more

Very mucht to the opposite of the earlier comments over here, L'otel can be absolutely stunning when booking the better rooms. I have been staying with them 3 times over the last few months now and must say that it is fantastic value for money in the most perfect location. The budget rooms might be tiny, did not see them... more

i booked this hotel before I read the reveiws- i then read these tripadvisor reviews and thus approached my stay with trepidation. I was thankfully surprised. I had a great room- the one that is inthe pics on the website- a balcony room- adequate size for a lone traveller or for a couple.. Staff were always friendly- though i was... more

Firstly, a great location. Minutes walk to the Kingscross train station and the guy on the desk was really friendly. But... the room was dirty and the walls in desperate need of plaster and paint, carpet was not vacuumed, bathroom had mold, shower curtain didn't reach the floor - so the bathroom was a flood very time you had a... more
