Really cool place to stay a night or two in Sydney. You sleep upstairs over the bar/restaurant which has great beers on draft. Bed was comfortable and room spacious. Neighborhood is quiet and close to The Rocks where lots of restaurants are located as well as a beautiful walking area in Bangaroo.

The Lord Nelson is both a charming and original place to stay. Because it is right smack in the center of old Sydney but also situated in a calmer corner, it gives easy access to eating venues of all kinds, closeby central public transport and an excellent location to start exploring Sydney from.

The accomodation was very nice as were the staff. Unfortunately the only issue we had was the poor air conditioning which was way too hot for our liking which inevitably impacted our sleep and the satisfaction rating. If they managed to fix the issue I would definitely stay again.

A stay with a small look back into history. The hotel is very popular with an energetic after work crowd. The rooms were nicely incorporated into the well preserved building and all facilities worked well. Parking is available in the streets surrounding the hotel and paid parking is nearby. Great location if you are headed to the the nearby theatres l.
