Travelodge Hotel Sydney Airport

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed at my fair share of airport hotels, and honestly? The Travelodge on King Street in Mascot surprised me. You know when you’re expecting that typical sterile airport vibe, but then you walk into a lobby that actually feels… warm? The staff at check-in were genuinely friendly – not that rehearsed hotel script stuff, but like they were actually glad to see me after my long flight from Melbourne.

The location is what really sold me on this place. Sure, it’s technically an airport hotel, but King Street puts you right in the heart of Mascot, which means you’re walking distance to some decent coffee shops and that little strip of restaurants near the train station. I mean, you’re not exactly in the thick of Sydney’s action, but the train line gets you to Central in about ten minutes, and honestly, after a long day of travel, sometimes you just want to grab a good meal without trekking across the city. The rooms are surprisingly quiet too – I was worried about aircraft noise, but the windows must be pretty solid because I slept through the night without any issues.

What I really appreciated were the small touches that showed someone actually thought about what travelers need. The shower pressure was excellent (you know how hit-or-miss that can be), and there’s enough desk space to spread out if you need to catch up on work. The bed was comfortable enough that I didn’t wake up with that hotel-bed backache, and the air conditioning actually worked properly – not too cold, not too stuffy. Parking was straightforward, which is more than I can say for most Sydney hotels where you’re circling blocks looking for a spot. The breakfast was decent – nothing fancy, but fresh coffee and real eggs, not that powdered stuff some places try to pass off. I’d definitely stay here again, especially for early morning flights when you just want something reliable and comfortable without the downtown Sydney hotel prices.

  We loved the proximity to the airport (both Domestic and International), the proximity of Wilson parking next door, the availability of shuttle services, the in-house restaurant and the general ‘vibe’ of the place. We have used Travelodge over a number of years when travelling and it has yet to disappoint … just great for us!
