Arrived at the hotel to a lovely welcoming lady who checked us in really swiftly and explained everything we needed to know. Highlighted the safety of the building overnight as it’s also a pub, the daily deals in the pub restaurant and also ensured us that they were on hand if we needed them. The room was bright and airy with lovely high ceilings and a SUPER comfy bed. We selected a room with a shared bathroom and wow, the shared bathrooms are incredible! It felt like having a shower in a show home they were that clean and modern. After checking in we had dinner downstairs, the day kept getting better! It was a Monday so there was a deal on rump steaks where they only cost $20.. these did not disappoint! Such great value and oh so delicious. Followed by a chocolate brownie which easily sits at the top of our all time favourite brownies, hats off to the chefs.

This is a great value hotel located not far from Sydney's International Terminal. In fact, if you've got a small rucksack, you can walk it. Transport options from the hotel into the city are very good. The staff is great and everything is kept immaculately clean. As other reviewers have pointed out, it's an older building, but they've done a good job installing accommodations within. You are above a pub that's open late on the weekends, but from my room any noise was minimal and didn't bother me at all. The pub food was really well prepared. For breakfast there's a cafe up the street, which was excellent. I'll happily stay here again!

The room, which was very comfortable, would go from a good room to a great room with a few small improvements: put a hand-held shower along with that rain shower. They've got hand-held showers in the shared bathrooms, so room 11 can use the same! Put in a bedside light, and finally, install some electrical outlets that you can put your charger in so you don't have to use the outlet over the bathroom sink!

Very friendly staff. Great location for an early departure from domestic airport for my partner. Very comfortable bed. Basic but clean and comfortable

Not really a complaint more a couple of amusing things... 1.The internal door to the next room was not lockef and I advised staff of this but they didn't lock it and in the middle of the night a couple were checking into the next room with the door between our rooms wide open! A bit embarrassing!! I had to call out that we were in bed and the door could not be locked between us. The couple didn't stay next door . 2. Also I was going to see my partner off at the airport at 5:00 a.m. and come back to sleep for a couple of hours but we tested the code to get back in and it didn't work so I waved him off at the door. Just keep these things in mind when you're checking in.

Great location and friendly vibe, but please turn off the hallway music at night! We really enjoyed our stay at Tempe Hotel – the location is fantastic, just a short and cheap Uber ride to the airport. The bar and restaurant downstairs are a big plus, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Another great touch: complimentary tea and coffee available 24/7, and the toiletries provided were high-quality. We also loved the stylish design and cozy atmosphere.

However, one major downside was the loud music playing in the hallway until 3 AM. While I understand it might be intended to create a nice ambiance during the day, at night it made it really hard to sleep – especially for guests like us who had to wake up at 4 AM to catch a flight. There was no way to turn it off or block it out, which was frustrating. Big suggestion for the hotel: Please consider turning off the music near the rooms at night. Most people stay here because of the proximity to the airport, and getting even a few hours of good sleep is essential.

Nearby to Tempe metro station so able to get into central Easy. Also bus service right outside as well. Also obviously close to airport Friendly staff. Great comfortable bed. small rooms but able to accommodate one person and maybe two if not too much luggage between two of you. Toilet and shower arrangements different to the norm but at least 3 showers and 3 toilets. Never had to wait for a free cubicle. Always lovely and clean. Would have preferred having wall based dispensers for conditioner shampoo and gel instead of small daily supplements BUT I'm being picky All staff able to accommodate hotel issues despite working at the bar at times. Appreciated the late check out.

N/A. For the price I enjoyed it. Music slightly loud as it is a bar /pub open to 3am but I didn't have any issues falling asleep..

Clean room and good facilities

Outside my room, in the hallway, there were some radios with music until 3am. Sometimes it wasn’t easy to sleep well

The Tempe Hotel far exceeded our expectations. A stopover for our trip to the UK its location was excellent. When arriving the staff were so friendly and welcoming it was so very refreshing. The balcony room we stayed in had a great comfy bed and was super clean. Happy hour in the bar and the specials on the menu board meant you certainly have bang for your buck. We stayed, ate and drank at the Tempe and would do it again in a heartbeat. When and should you stay at the Tempe there is a wonderful cafe just down the street called CAFE DZAJKO that you must go for breakfast, the lovely Macedonian family would appreciate your business. This review is for a short stay only as there is nothing for you to stay longer.

The whole staff were welcoming from first arrival carrying 2 x heavy luggage bags up stairs to our room. The manager was very friendly talking to us, listening to our thoughts and also holding our bags the morning of departure while we had breakfast at a local cafe. Our bags were then taken by the manager (a lady) to the Uber awaiting us. Credit must go to the people behind this rebuilt of what was a very run-down old pub, bringing it back to its former glory with modern conveniences such as ensuite in 80% of the rooms. A memorable stay in a thriving area of inner Sydney.

Noelene and the team are awesome, friendly, genuine and customer focussed. The pub has evening meal specials, all delicious and very generous servings. the room has a private bathroom with (clean & modern) biggest bonus, separated toilet ☺️access to enclosed balcony, with outdoor seating. A unit for luggage storage. complimentary water too 🙏🏾. nice complimentary toiletries. pin code room access, love it!!!! The pillows very fluffy and bed very soft. bus stop right outside the hotel, very accessible. 5 minute walk to tempe canal park / reserve. Nigel Love Bridge to watch incoming flights arrive. walking distance to ikea, decathlon and woolies. if you are flying international its a 10 min drive or 30 minute walk. Staff were so lovely to my mum (in her 70’s).

if they could have a kettle in the private rooms, that would be an added bonus.

Very clean, newly renovated, good food, amazing staff

Soap dispenser and paper towels would be great in the shared bathroom so that you don’t have to take your soap and towel every time you go for a wee. Lights on the nightstand and something needs to be done about soundproofing. The girls in the room next to me came home around 2-3am and were quite loud - I don’t mind a bit of noise in the hotel but it sounded as if they were in the same room as me…. I could understand every word they were saying which is not great when you have to get up at 4:30/5am the next morning to fly to a new job induction.
