Fabulous accommodation, so close to all the action. We chose this location because of its proximity (and easy public transport) to the Hordern Pavilion (for TISM in case you're wondering) and it is so close and convenient. We walked home from the venue, super quick and we walked into the city several times. The noise from the bar ends around midnight, although it never really bothered us. And although the rooms are dated, they are just stunning - lots of dark carpet and old furniture, but new mattress and aircon that works a treat. Shared bathrooms but there are two so there was never an issue with waiting for a shower or loo. And how convenient having a bar and bistro downstairs. Stoked we found this place and would definitely stay again.

The folks managing this property are great people. But the property itself is very old. The shared bathroom aren't kept clean by other fellow residents. Not all things work in the room itself.

The Shakespeare hotel is an amazing place to stay, not just for the beautiful interior but for the friendly and accommodating staff, and the great food and music downstairs. My boyfriend and I had an amazing trip and have even re-booked for our next stay. Thank you again to the staff at Shakespeare you are all amazing

Great location and easy to find your way around Sydney CBD. Noisy until 12pm (unbearably loud) and the room is musky, dated, and spartan.

‘Heritage’ means completely unrenovated and in dire need of redecoration and repair. Fortunately the bed was very comfortable, the room quiet and plenty of hot water in the shared bathroom. It’s a great pub by the way, including really good food.

Quirky and quaint, it had everything I needed. Room was dusty and carpet not hoovered in corners. It reminded me of share houses I’ve lived in. If you like the patina of peeling wallpaper and the spooky feeling that things might fall apart the Shakey lives up to its nickname. Creaky doors and floors and bad works of art complete the grunge setting.

This is an old Sydney pub, you will be sharing a bathroom/toilets & climbing stairs etc. We loved it! The room was clean & comfortable. The toilets & bathroom was clean & well stocked with paper towels & soap. Meals were excellent & staff very friendly & accomodating. It's close to the City & walking distance to the SCG. We'll stay again 😊
