Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Redfern One Bedroom Apartment with Views, you immediately get that “local living” vibe rather than the typical hotel experience. It’s tucked right into the heart of Redfern on a street that actually feels like a neighborhood — you know, the kind where people walk their dogs and grab coffee from the corner café. This four-star apartment sits in one of those converted buildings that manages to blend modern comfort with the area’s gritty, artistic character.

The Space Itself

The room — well, it’s really a full apartment — gives you way more space than you’d expect for the price point. The bedroom is separate (thank goodness), and there’s an actual living area where you can spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. What really caught my attention was the view — and I mean, they weren’t kidding about that part of the name. You get these glimpses of the Sydney skyline that honestly make you feel like you’re living here rather than just visiting. The kitchen is compact but functional, which is perfect if you want to grab groceries from the local markets and save some money on dining out.

Location Perks

Here’s what I love about staying in Redfern — you’re close enough to the city center that you can easily hop on a train, but you’re also in this evolving neighborhood that locals actually hang out in. The street art scene here is incredible, and there are these little independent cafés and bars that you’d never find in the touristy areas. Plus, couples seem to really dig this spot (the feedback backs this up), probably because it feels more intimate and authentic than staying in some massive hotel in the CBD.

Practical Considerations

The building itself is well-maintained, and parking isn’t the nightmare it can be in other parts of Sydney — though I’d still recommend checking the street signs carefully. The apartment comes with all the basics you need, including decent Wi-Fi and a washing machine, which is clutch if you’re staying more than a few nights. One thing to note is that this isn’t a traditional hotel, so don’t expect daily housekeeping or a front desk — but honestly, that’s part of the appeal.

Why Guests Love It

What makes this place work is that balance between convenience and character. You’re getting that high rating (8.7 out of 10) because it delivers on the promise of giving you a real Sydney experience without sacrificing comfort. The views are genuinely nice, the space feels like home, and you’re positioned perfectly to explore both the local scene and the broader city. It’s especially great for couples who want somewhere they can actually relax together — not just crash between tourist activities. The neighborhood has this energy that makes you want to wander around and discover things, which you just don’t get when you’re staying in the more sanitized hotel districts.

"Handy central Sydney apartment with great views and easy transport options"
Fabulous location with train station across the street and 2 supermarkets and a bottle shop below the apartments. Lots of cafes, bars, breweries and restaurants around. Was clean and secure. Loved the sun set views from the balcony. Easy to meet up and collect keys. A nice little study area with desk was handy for any work you needed to do.

"It was so great, will be back in Sydney in March will probably stay here again"
The place was very clean, I am quite fussy when it comes to cleanliness where I stay and this is probably one of the cleanest places I have stayed in. Great stocked kitchen for cooking at home and 2 supermarkets either side of the building makes cooking at home easy instead of eating out for every meal.

"Everything was great."
It is spacious, has a homely feel. The bed was very comfortable and the balcony was lovely to sit in on a sunny afternoon. It’s so convenient to Sydney uni and Redfern station with supermarkets right downstairs too.

"Absolutely brilliant. Would love to return."
Fantastic location. The apartment is so close to cafes, grocery stores and transport to get around Sydney and beyond. Everything we needed was available and the company/host were keen to ensure we had a comfortable stay. The views were lovely and the apartment was sunny and warm. We had no need for heating in winter. It was a lovely place to come back to after long day of sightseeing.

It was good to have Woolworth market, cafes, and amenities near the accommodation, and transportation is very convenient because it is close to redfern station!
