Check-in was easy. The location is great. The decor is nicely done. The room was clean and the bed and pillows were comfortable.
We had a nice, comfortable one-night stay at The Urban Newtown, perfectly located in the heart of Newtown. It’s just a 30-minute train ride to Circular Quay and all the main Sydney sights, making it a convenient base for exploring the city. I’d recommend booking a car parking spot with the hotel in advance, it’s a shame this has to be arranged and paid for separately, but understandable given how busy the area is. The welcome drink and snacks were a lovely touch and made us feel very welcome.
great proximity to The Enmore.
Friendly staff.
Parking, if you get in early.
Lovely atmosphere.

My son and I stayed for a concert at the Enmore. The staff at The Urban really looked after us. The vibe is so welcoming. Thank you for having us. We will see you next concert!
Enjoyable stay in the Urban Hotèl in the heart of vibrant Kingstown. Helpful staff made it an easy stay in well appointed room. Easy to transport links. Recommended for a full urban experience.
Main issue was had to get out of bed to turn the light off.
The room was small but I guess that was the price i paid for.
other issue no chocalate drink packet and refilling of hot drinks haphazard e.g only brown sugar replace white sugar was not. Focus on training cleaning staff. Also no face flannels. I used the hand towel for wetting my s=face for shaving.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Urban. It was so clean, quiet, very central and had everything we needed.
The staff were friendly, helpful and so professional. They even offered us an afternoon drink. That doesn't happen very often.
Thank you for a fabulous stay.
