“Clean large and well appointed rooms.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2013

A nice surprise after a quick late booking as I had to pick up a new car nearby in the morning. The room was large and very clean and comfortable with all the basics needed and at $120 I was impressed. It's about 10 minutes walk to the Haberfield shops which has several good Italian Restaurants and I think Summer... More

“No garden, but nice.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2012

It seems to me that the mixed reviews are due to the website raising unrealistic expectations and a very misleading name: "Garden Lodge" - the hotel is surrounded by concreted driveway and its parking lot. Not a patch of green in sight. Apart from that, it's actually very nice. Unlike most other hotels, all rooms open *inwards*, towards a two-storey... More
