This gorgeous terrace house is a prime example of the stylish accommodations that Surry Hills offers, with a private balcony and a fantastic courtyard for its guests to enjoy. The area is dotted with excellent dining options, and with the Central Station right next to it, there is an unparalleled convenience for you in planning your Sydney adventure.

7. Homey room near rail station
Being a huge city with a population of more than five million, Sydney has an expansive and well-connected rail system made up of urban metro lines, light rails, suburban trains and inter-city services. So if you want to get to the attractions on the outskirts of the city (e.g the Blue Mountains and the Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park), it would be convenient to find accommodations near one of the train stations. This homey guestroom for two is just a five-minute walk away from the Redfern Station, south of downtown, and is also close to convenience stores, eateries, gym studios and even a swimming pool. If you prefer chilling out to exploring, you can hang out in the soothing courtyard which comes with an outdoor grill.

8. No-frills crash pad in Surry Hills
Wherever you stay in Sydney, you should make a day trip to one of its world-famous beaches facing the South Pacific Ocean. Bondi Beach is an obvious choice, with its picture-perfect crescent beachfront and a bevy of hot bods at every turn. But don’t forget the quieter beaches like Manly Beach, right at the mouth of the Sydney Harbor, or Coogee Beach, a few kilometers south of Bondi. The inner-city suburbs east of downtown, such as Surry Hills and Centennial Park, are a mere 15 minutes’ drive from Bondi. So you can opt for convenient accommodations close to the city such as this no-frills crash pad for two guests, and still be able to spend quality beach time to sunbathe and people-watch.

9. Charming studio loft in Darlinghurst
Just like Melbourne, Sydney offers lots of interesting nooks and crannies for the intrepid explorer to discover, especially around its inner-city suburbs. One of the best areas to explore is Darlinghurst, east of downtown Sydney and north of Centennial Park. Here you can find quaint shop fronts, intimate bars, and offbeat museums amid the dense residential buildings. This charming studio loft in Darlinghurst, with its high ceilings and 1920s heritage art deco, is a great base for your explorations. Located along a quiet street, it is nonetheless close to public transport as well as stylish eateries that lend so much character to the suburb.

Located between the two train stations at Hyde Park, the apartment can host up to four guests, and is well-stocked with a kitchen, a bathroom and bedroom amenities.

11. Colorful apartment with rooftop deck
The lovely, colorful apartment for two guests is located along Darlinghurst Road, a key thoroughfare road through the eastern inner-city suburbs. The iconic Coca-Cola billboard is erected along this road, on the north-eastern tip of the Darlinghurst suburb. You will be enchanted by the bright decor and quirky furniture of this apartment, but the jewel in the crown lies fittingly on the common rooftop deck. That is where you will find a lap pool, a gas-operation BBQ grill, and sitting areas to enjoy stunning vistas of the Sydney Harbor. A million-dollar view, no doubt.

12. Designer loft in hip suburb
Maybe it’s the old-style terrace houses, maybe it’s the hip restaurants and bars nearby, but some of the accommodations in Surry Hills have truly inspired, stylish decor. Take this one-bedroom apartment for example. Its modern furniture is adorned with eclectic touches and quirky artwork. There are comfortable leather sofas to enjoy Netflix on the TV, while the kitchen is well-equipped with a coffee machine, a dishwasher, and a ceramic cooktop. Taken together, it makes for a truly pleasurable lodging that rejuvenates you to continue discovering the delights of the city.

13. Bare-bones studio loft in Centennial Park
The Centennial Park suburb is right in the middle of two major parklands in Sydney. To the east is Centennial Park, a huge open space with formal gardens, historical buildings, and even a stone labyrinth. To the west is Moore Park, home to major sports venues such as Sydney Cricket Ground and Allianz Stadium, as well as Fox Studios Australia. This studio loft in the suburb offers a convenient accommodation with bare-bones amenities: just a TV, sofa bed, bathroom, and wifi. Still, it means you are compelled to get out and keep yourself busy by exploring the nearby parks and recreational attractions.

14. Marvelous guestroom overlooking a beautiful harbor
Any talk of the city’s sights must start with its amazing harbor, a captivating body of water that is adorned with iconic landmarks such as the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, and the Taronga Zoo. It’s almost a given that you should take the ferries from Circular Quay to properly explore the world’s biggest natural harbor. Not surprisingly, rooms with views of the harbor are highly prized, and this wondrous, elegantly-decorated guestroom in a townhouse in the inner-city suburb of Pyrmont has just that. And not only that, it is also a stone’s throw away from a cluster of tourist attractions in Darling Harbour such as the excellent Sydney Aquarium and the Australia National Maritime Museum. It is truly a superb accommodation option to begin your Sydney exploration.

16. Convenient studio in Potts Point
Another gentrified inner-city suburb with an unsavory past, Potts Point lies north of Darlinghurst and its Kings Cross precinct was once a hive of strip clubs and prostitution. By the turn of this century, however, the area has largely been cleaned up, and nowadays it is filled with hostels, pubs, and restaurants for a decent night out. The Potts Point residents have similarly grown more affluent, as more properties are erected to take advantage of its prime location. This cozy studio for two guests lies just beyond the rowdy Kings Cross district, meaning that it is close to convenience stores and eateries. Yet, you can easily walk by the harbor towards the Botanic Gardens and the Opera House, making it an outstanding base to visit the downtown attractions.
