Like most big cities, Sydney, Australia, has its typical neighborhoods: the Central Business District with its shopping options, Chinatown with its restaurants, and The Rocks with its historic buildings and cobblestone streets. Once a working class district, the Chippendale neighborhood has experienced a revival in recent years to become one of Sydney’s coolest neighborhoods. Its creative scene thrives on the dozens of art galleries and occasional creative festivals in the area. There are also trendy bars and restaurants on every corner. For a hip setting with easy access to all Sydney has to offer, consider staying in one of these Airbnb vacation rentals in Chippendale, Australia.

25. Chippendale room near Chinatown
Though this room for rent is part of an apartment, the host has gone above and beyond to make the guest feel like they have their own privacy. There is a personal mini fridge inside of the bedroom, as well as a lock to the bedroom that only the guest will have the key for. Guests are welcome to use the other areas of the apartment too, like the kitchen, living room, and balcony. If you don’t mind sharing the apartment with the host, it’s a great place for 1-2 people to stay affordably in downtown Sydney. This apartment is very close to Sydney’s Chinatown, a bustling area with dozens of delicious eateries to choose from. The unique architecture and lanterns give a different feel from the rest of Sydney, and the unique stores and occasional festivals are great reasons to stop by!
