The rooms were well looked after and the beds were comfortable. Just what we needed after a busy day. Despite being on a main road, it was very quiet too.This was a great budget option for a parent travelling with kids - close to the city and easy to get around. Just don't bring a big car if you can avoid it - the parking spaces are tight and it can be hard to maneuver.

The staff were very helpful. We were seeking an early check in, which was provided. Off street parking was a huge plus around the busy streets of Edgecliff. The room itself, although clean and tidy, was quite ordinary and in need of some updating/upgrades. The double bed was not the most comfortable of beds (a bit hard). The accommodation was cheaper the most around the area.

Good location to most things. Quiet area. Room was nice abit outdated but otherwise fine. Not much parking and is very tight. Small car recommended otherwise you have to park a street or two away and it’s all 1-2 hour parking during the week.

Highly recommended.

Very nice, low-key hotel in bust Edgecliff. The attendant was friendly and very accommodating to two weary travelers who had just landed from 24 hours of flying. He offered us an early check in so that we could refresh ourselves and enjoy the city without worrying about carrying our luggage around. This is a hotel with no frills amenities, which is what we liked after our long day of travel. Highly recommended for those who are on a budget.

My one night stay at Edgecliff Lodge Motel was excellent. Clean, affordable, close to Edgecliff train station and a short walk to Rushcutters Bay. I didn’t have a car which might partly explain for my high review, compared to low reviews from people with cars. It was very easy to arrange to pick up my key from the safe-box as I arrived after office hours, which I appreciated. It’s not the Ritz but it is an excellent budget accommodation for travellers to Sydney CBD who don’t have a car.
