We stayed at Hotel 59 for a week in February. George and his family run this B and B efficiantly and with friendliness. We stayed in a Family room, and it was comfotable, roomy, and had all the comforts, including efficient air conditioning, that is often missing in more expensive rooms we have stayed in. If you dont have your... More

Management ranges between gracious and spiteful. Killed the biggest cockroach I've ever seen the very first night. Locked out of my room one night, called the After Hours Emergency number and waited. Another guest let me inside the hotel, but manager never showed up. Next day he says "I just didn't want to be bothered", it was only about 9pm... More

We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights, we had a cooked breakfast each morning which gave us a good start to the day. I was dubious about the location in King's Cross but it was perfectly safe. George and his family run this hotel which suited us fine, our room was large and comfortable with tea/coffee making facilities and... More

Sydney is a very expensive place for Americans to vacation, so I was looking for a modest, reasonably priced accommodation in a fairly central location. Hotel 59 delivered that and more. We were there three nights. A full cooked to order breakfast (with tea or espresso drink) included in the room price is a great benefit. Our room was on... More

I booked a 'Deluxe' room at this hotel following some great comments on TA but unfortunatley I was really disppointed with my experience here. I have to say though, George's sister was nice and helped me with my very heavy bag up the stairs and their father makes a great breakfast which is free. But my deluxe room was very... More

Hotel 59 hits all the buttons if you want modestly priced decent, accommodation, with easy access to Sydney's brilliant transport network. Buy a Multipass and use the ferries, buses, and trains to get you around and about all of the places of interest, including the Blue Mountains.
