Overview

Pros
  • Located near Darlinghurst and Kings Cross, close to bars and restaurants

  • Rooms have understated, sophisticated decor

  • Flat-screen TVs

  • Speakeasy-inspired cocktail bar, Eau De Vie, is quite popular

  • Free Wi-Fi

  • Cafeteria-like Tropicana Cafe offers outdoor sidewalk seating

Cons
  • Rooms are a bit dark due to heavily glazed windows

  • Standard Rooms are tiny

  • Rooms can be noisy due to popular bar in hotel

  • No fitness center (though guests have free access to Fitness First gym)

  • Bathrooms need updating

Bottom Line

Located in the lively Darlinghurst neighborhood near Woolloomooloo and Kings Cross, the Kirketon Hotel Sydney is a 40-room, art-inspired boutique hotel that fuses contemporary style with classic Parisian influences. The rooms have sophisticated decor, crisp white bedding, coffeemakers, mini-fridges, DVD players, and flat-screen TVs -- but they're a bit dark, and bathrooms need updating (the tile grout is dirty, and the odd showerheads are stuck to the ceiling). Standard Rooms are tiny, and are meant for single occupancy. The hotel itself lacks a fitness center, but guests are offered free access to a nearby gym. The speakeasy-styled cocktail bar, Eau de Vie, is a definite highlight -- it's one of the trendiest spots in the city.
