Homestays in New South Wales, Australia

Beautiful building, great location to Randwick racecourse. Rooms were clean and tidy. Receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Great communication leading up to stay as well. Undercover parking available but our car wouldn’t fit (too high) so they accommodated us by allowing us to park in the driveway. Easy to access after hours. Comfortable bed. No plug in the bathroom at all, take an extension cord with you if you plan on staying here and you use an electric shaver, there’s a mirror in the room that you can to use for hair straightener etc. Some rooms have private bathrooms for extra money so be sure to check before booking - we had a private bathroom. Clothes hanger was directly above the tea/coffee/kettle so hanging a dress and a suit was awkward if you plan on using tea/coffee area. Can hear other guests moving around during the night, especially as our room was next to the shared bathroom, hubby woke up the first night to someone throwing up! It gets very noisy during the night, walls are thin. Hot water in our bathroom took ages to warm up, a lot of wasted water. Tea and coffee provided but I’m not an instant coffee drinker so if Coffex instant coffee isn’t to your taste then byo. The exhaust fan in our bathroom wasn’t working so the tiny bathroom got steamy very quickly so had to open the window. The shower itself is super small as well. But all toiletries (shampoo conditioner and body wash) provided. If you are looking for somewhere to stay to go to the races then this place is very suitable. We walked which took 20 minutes at a casual pace but you could cross the road and jump on the light rail up to the next station if you didn’t want to walk.

What a nice surprise to find the Charrington in Chatswood. Amazing heritage hotel... every room has a little balcony, the hotel is decorated with beautiful lead lights and the owner Robert was amazing in telling us about the history of this Victorian style hotel. Super centrally located near the station, cafes etc, but easy to find on street (timed, free) parking. And the hotel is hidden away from the Pacific Highway traffic in a little heritage piece of bushland with gorgeous birds waking you up!

Very lovely, nice and clean hotel. The single room is a small but cozy room. Has everything I needed. Services are awesome especially for after hour check-in. The instruction is very clear and easy to follow. Would consider to stay here again. Only thing is it’s a bit hard to find a parking nearby at night.

Excellent attention to detail! I am very fussy where i stay when travelling being in the Tourism Industry and managing hotels and resorts for over a decade, and i was not disappointed with my recent stay at St Marks at Randwick. Rarely you will find an accommodation business that ticks every box with a guests stay and i was happy to find that St Marks did exactly that! Congratulations to the team for making my stay an excellent one and i shall be choosing this hotel whenever I am in Sydney.

The location is good, it is attached to the road and close to the center. We had taken an accommodation with a room with a large bed and a bunk bed for three that we were going and our surprise was that they gave us a much better and larger one with two rooms, one with a double bed and the other with four bunk beds, living room, bathroom, toilet for the same price. I think it was because we didn't have Wi-Fi because of the floods that had occurred, but a great detail on his part. The facilities very well. There are courts to play tennis and they provide you with the material. There are common areas where you can have a meal with many people equipped with refrigerators, tables and benches, sinks and even a toaster and kettle, as well as a drinks machine. It has a beautiful park for children and a swimming pool with good hammocks. In the area where the washing machines and dryers are located, they have put a large stall to hang clothes, since it is forbidden to hang them on the folding stalls that are in each accommodation. The personal is ver kind and helpful. The general impression is very good, in fact we would return for sure if we lived here, but in any case we recommend it.

This would have to be one of the best caravan/cabin parks we have stayed in. The location on the river is so peaceful and beautiful. There is a private jetty and there are kayaks, SUPs and boats available for hire. We weren't here with children but this is a destination in itself if you have children/teenagers with you. Several pools, games rooms, climbing wall room, kids club, swim up bar, jumping pillow, playgrounds etc etc. We stayed in a 1 bedroom villa and it was spotlessly clean and included a full sized fridge and dishwasher. BBQ was close by and parking was outside the door. Definitely the caravan park to pick if going to Yamba.

This is the only BIG4 campsite where you live in Australia. The room type you stay in is a playground cabin. Each cabin has two bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. It is suitable for self-driving friends. The car can park at the cabin ticket. The camp has My own private beach, the campsite is the RV campsite, there are many barbecue grills for guests to use for free, and there is a large kitchen in the campsite for guests to use for free, and the campsite is very large, there are many amusement facilities and swimming pools, which is only a short distance from the campsite. The nearest supermarket is about 2 minutes away by car. It is very convenient, about 15 kilometers away from the central coast. Very suitable for taking kids on holiday⛱️

Super comfortable cabin, in the camp, the time to the store is not concerned (before 17:00 local time), by the time of get off work, if you arrive late, you must contact the front desk or Trip.com in advance, they will leave the password key, do not worry like us late at night. Ctrip met the irresponsible butler who was in a hurry to get off work, and also met the housekeeper who was still trying to contact the hotel late at night. Fortunately, the last time I checked in smoothly; the cabin was clean, warm and very good.

We need to take a rest overnight in Sydney, because the arrival is late, and the departure is early. I meant to book a hotel near the airport, and the homepage says the shuttle airport shuttle is set. As a result, it was only available during the day of consultation. I do n’t know. Fortunately, I contacted Ctrip customer service to solve the problem perfectly. I asked the customer service to call for a car the next morning, but after waiting for 50 minutes, I almost missed the plane. And as other friends have said, to use a credit card as a deposit, what kind of damage can we do in the middle of the night to leave early in the morning? I really do n’t trust myself!

I highly recommend this experience! If seeing animals up close and getting a private group twilight ,night and morning tours I would highly recommend. You can hear the animas during the night which is an incredible experience. This is such amazing value for money! Multiple guided tours, behind the scene animal encounters, camp site is definitely glamping style and the view from the glamping tents of Sydney harbour is incredible! The staff ensure you have the most amazing time! They also cater for dietary requirements including Coeliac aslong as you contact them at the time of booking and request they plate your meals separately at the time of booking and they will do this to ensure no CC. Very impressed!

Second time here for fairly close access to Sydney International Regatta Centre. Quiet location away from traffic. Cabins are of an adequate size for a family of 4 for a short period. The older cabins are certainly showing their age but comfortable enough for a quick night stop. I think the price we paid reflects this though. Friendly staff when we checked in by phone out of hours.

We spent a very comfortable night in a double room with ensuite. The building is old and full of character, with creative uses of space. The bed was clean and we slept extremely well. The best part was the friendly welcome. Our hostess could not have been more helpful and kind. She made sure we understood the access codes and asked about our trip. Surprisingly great location, a short walk to Burwood/Victoria Rds and fabulous Chinese restaurants. Burwood Park also close by. I thought being near the road would be noisy, but it was quiet and we slept undisturbed. It’s not fancy, but that didn’t matter at all. If you want fancy, you’ll be paying a lot more.

The overall feeling is quite good, there are direct buses to the Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, the University of Sydney and so on. However, it was assigned to the house facing the street, very noisy! After communicating with the front desk, I was told that there were no extra rooms that could not be changed for us. Other than that, the experience is good!

Our arrival at Byron Springs really earned a ”Wow” as everything exceeded our expectations. We loved the minimal design of both the bedroom, the large shared lounge and kitchen area, and the pool. Everywhere was absolutely clean and well maintained. The pool looked very inviting but, unfortunately, a sudden storm prevented our trying it during our all-too-short stay. We found the breakfast provided in the room, including Byron granola and fruit, to be tasty and perfectly adequate, while the pineapples and wonderful brownies in the shared area were a real bonus. I thoroughly recommend this little gem, but be sure to book more than one night!

The room is not big, but the kitchen equipment is quite complete, there is no problem in cooking for yourself! Booked for two big and one small occupancy, so it is a double bed + a single bed room type. Good choice~

My partner and I had a short visit to Byron Bay and we stayed in the “Dragonfly’s rest” room at the Garden Burees. You enter by driving up a little pebble road and at this point already feel like you’ve entered into a secluded jungle. To get to our room we walked up another pebble path surrounded by lush greenery. We saw wild turkeys and a few lizards and water dragons. The entrance to the room was a double door of beautifully carved wood. Going through that door led us to an outdoor space featuring a stone bathtub, shower, sink, toilet, fishpond with waterfall and couch. This outdoor area was so nice for hanging out and relaxing and we couldn’t miss taking a romantic bath under the stars later that night (during which we got to watch some kind of lizard or gecko hunting bugs!). The indoor section of the accommodation had a bed, basic toiletries, candles, a living room area with a couch and table, a tv, refrigerator, microwave, kettle, silk robes, and board games. It was such a relaxing getaway that we almost just stayed in and didn’t even go into town. However, we pulled ourselves out of the zen to visit Byron. It was only a ten minute walk into the town. Overall our stay here was very peaceful and relaxing and we really loved having a private outdoor space to use and how immersed in nature this accommodation was!

The hotel is superb, has a home feel, has a communal kitchen and laundry room, and has a small bar in the room, very warm. 900 meters from the town and the sea, driving is very convenient, about 2 kilometers from the lighthouse, driving directly up the mountain.

I definitely want to use it. Mineral water is provided. There were some good shops in the area. The beds are great.
