Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney Surry Hills

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed at a lot of places in Sydney, and the Adina on Crown Street actually gets it right in ways that surprised me. First thing you notice walking in – it doesn’t feel like a hotel lobby at all, more like you’re entering someone’s really well-designed apartment building. Which, I mean, makes sense given the whole apartment hotel concept, but still caught me off guard in the best way.

The location is honestly perfect if you want to feel like you’re living in Sydney rather than just visiting it. You’re right in the heart of Surry Hills, which means you can walk to some of the city’s best coffee (and trust me, Sydneysiders are serious about their coffee) without dealing with the chaos of the CBD. There’s this great little stretch of Crown Street right outside where you’ll find proper local cafes, not tourist traps. Plus you’re walking distance to Central Station – actually walking distance, not that “convenient to public transport” nonsense where you need a sherpa to find the nearest bus stop.

What really sold me on this place was the apartment setup. You get a proper kitchen, not just a mini-fridge and kettle situation. The apartments have this clean, modern vibe without feeling sterile – lots of natural light, decent space to actually spread out your stuff. I stayed in one of the one-bedroom units and honestly, after a week of cramped hotel rooms, having a separate living area felt like luxury. The beds are comfortable (I’m picky about this), and the bathrooms are well-designed with good water pressure – you know, the stuff that actually matters when you’re dealing with jet lag.

The building itself has this cool warehouse-y feel that fits perfectly with Surry Hills’ whole converted industrial vibe. There’s a decent gym and a rooftop area that’s actually worth using, not just there for show. Parking is available but you’ll pay for it – welcome to Sydney, right? Though honestly, once you’re settled in this neighborhood, you might not need your car much anyway.

Staff-wise, they strike that good balance between helpful and not hovering. Check-in was smooth, and when I had questions about the area, they actually gave useful recommendations rather than just handing me a generic tourist brochure. The housekeeping is thorough without being intrusive – they get that you’re living there, not just passing through.

If I’m being completely honest, it’s not the cheapest option in the area, but you’re paying for that apartment-style space and the location. And the location really is something special – you’re in one of Sydney’s most interesting neighborhoods, surrounded by great food, vintage shops, and that authentic Sydney energy that’s harder to find in the more touristy areas. It’s the kind of place where you can actually imagine living, which is exactly what you want from an apartment hotel.

  Didn’t apply we had breakfast with our son at his home in Bourke street. It was a family wedding

• Spacious and comfortable apartment in nice part of inner Sydney – Miriam from Australia (8/10)

  Our apartment was very spacious, which is handy with two active kids needing room to move and having been away for a while we weren't on top of one another. The beds were comfortable and large, and the bedrooms both hand TVs as well as the common lounge. The kitchen had all the necessary appliances to make a meal. Reception was responsive to our requests. The kids enjoyed visiting the gym, and the pool looked nice but the weather was not suitable to try it. Had never stayed in Surry Hills before but really liked the area's vibe, cafe/restaurants, and older architecture.
