The Best Places To Stay in North Sydney

This place uses four very simple — and accurate — words to describe its lodgings: ‘apartments with a view’. The 82 two-bedroom, one-bedroom and studio apartments could not be closer to the waterfront — in fact, the pool out the front of the building is perched so close to the harbour, you can hardly spot where one ends and the other begins. They also feature their own fully equipped kitchen plus access to an alfresco dining area.

The 16 guest rooms in this gorgeous heritage home have been fitted out with luxury furnishings to cater to both short- and long-term guests. The quality suites offer all the facilities you’d expect — right down to the deluxe linen maintained by the on-site housekeeper — as well convenient access to the city from the exclusive harbourside suburb of McMahons Point.

Located on the corner of Miller St and the Pacific Highway, smack-bang in the middle of North Sydney’s bustling business district, this new hotel will attract plenty of attention when it opens its doors in April 2018.

This Kirribilli lodge is the area’s best budget hotel, with a variety of room types with shared bathrooms to help travellers trying to stretch their dollar further. A charming building nestled among the leafy, winding streets of Kirribilli, Glenferrie offers complimentary wireless internet and hot buffet breakfast, a TV and bar fridge in every room, as well as a cafe and guest laundry. Plus, it’s pet friendly if you’re visiting with Fido or Felix.

Introducing the only suite-hotel in North Sydney, made up of 29 storeys of sprawling, full-service accommodation that’s far larger than your average hotel room.

Popular for conferences and even more in-demand on New Year’s Eve, this massive hotel occupies prime real estate towering over North Sydney. The Harbourview contains 211 modern rooms, a bar and a restaurant, seven conference/meeting rooms, a sophisticated business centre and — perhaps most importantly — huge windows to make the most of the view.

This hotel delivers all the comfort you expect from Rydges north of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
