We really enjoyed the woman who checked us in. She was just wonderful, and I even had a conversation with her, on our second night. She was just perfect. Oh, we also liked that we could have some actual wine, beer, or cider as well as some teats with it. That was a huge surprise! We don’t get that in the USA. Take care abcs I wish you more stats and a Happy New Year!!!

An outstanding place to stay

From the moment we walked in our stay was amazing. The staff welcome, information on the area, the free drinks and snacks in the foyer, the greenery, the conditions of the rooms. We couldn’t fault a thing. We were going to Enmore Theatre which was a 2 minute walk away, and had a wide selection of restaurants and pubs within 5 minutes. Can’t fault anything!!

The Urban is a great place to stay in an area of Sydney that is just bursting with life. The rooms are spacious with great facilities and in the foyer, they have 24/7 tea, coffee, biscuits, wine and beer. What more could you ask for....friendly staff??? This is without doubt the best thing about the Urban :-)

Okay

The Urban is a unique, comfortable stay overall but we found the lounge area a little awkward and there was a smell from one of the bathrooms. They also had a smart TV but it didn't work for streaming and when I tried to contact to get some help there was no response.

I didn’t like that we couldn’t alter the booking when I wanted to reduce it by one night. We left the day before we originally booked because our plans changed and we weren’t able to cancel one night in advance of the holiday. We had to pay for the last night anyway.

The Urban Newtown was a lovely hotel with very helpful staff and the best cleaning crew in the world! The facilities were a bit different from what we expected, as there was nearly no room for our things. Is was a very small hotel room, and we had to move some of the furniture in order to even access the bed. It felt a bit claustrophobic, as if they had stuffed too many items in the room. Other than that, it was a lovely hotel with really cool common areas and an absolutely perfect location! Thank you :)
