Friendly, helpful staff. We were in Sydney from interstate, to see a show at the Lyric Theatre. The Dunkirk was perfect for proximity to the Star Casino and to light rail, restaurants, and other tourist attractions. Clean, comfortable room with a small kitchenette and access to the hotel rooftop. Many thanks to the Dunkirk team.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room itself was decent for the price and in a good location, sometimes a bit loud but I was expecting that. But cleanliness and maintenance was really bad, my room had a broken lampshade, a loud fridge, food stains all over the menu and the tray with the utensils and what looked like blood / vomit stains on the sheets, which I only noticed as I was leaving so slept in these for several nights.

Room was clean, shared bathroom was clean, but the electricity didn’t work very well. There’s also two flights of stairs if you’re bringing luggage so be warned (it’s a very old building). Great location just outside of downtown but a little loud at night.

It’s unfortunate my stay was short, as I was really comfortable there and can say that I will certainly stay there again!! Thank you to the Dunkirk Hotel family for a wonderful stay.
