A hidden Gem in the heart of the city.. Amazing service from all the super friendly team… Rooms were a very good size and extremely clean… Adjoins a number of amazing bars and restaurants - including the famous Mr Wong’s. Definitely recommend a stay for anyone looking to experience Sydney.

Staff were great. room size was good. Noise was very bad with little to no noise insulation between the room and very large very loud bar which kept going to 3am on Friday and Saturday nights. Sunday had a wedding with live band running to midnight and Monday had nearby building works. If the owners could improve noise issues the Hotel would be great. As is we are unlikely to stay there again

Always a memorable stay at The Establishment!

We have stayed here a number of times and we cannot fault the team at The Establishment. It’s certainly a favourite of ours in Sydney. Thank you for making our stay so memorable yet again.

Excellent property and would be even better if they had noise control or insulation in walls and windows so you don’t hear everything.

Amazing staff, could not ask for a better location in the city, surrounded by phenomenal bars and restaurants. Our corner room was very noisy, could hear all the street noise and everything from the hallway and adjacent rooms. Would definitely stay again

Great looking room.

Nicely furnished room with an excellent mini bar and sound system. Quite noisy as rooms are not sound proofed. Problematic hot water as takes about 3 mins to get hot and not much pressure. Nice bathtub but took too long to fill so could not use it. Mattress was a bit past its prime and the flashing smoke alarm was mounted directly above the bed so was annoying while trying to sleep. Woke at 7am on Saturday morning to the sound of a jackhammer in the laneway...but this was not the hotel's fault apart from the non soundproofed windows.
