Really cool area if you’re looking to walk Around and eat/drink locally. Hotel is a bit hidden looks like it’s in an alley! But inside is really nice and staff are helpful and friendly. By the way if you’re bringing a car you have the option to park on the street not just at the hotels designated parking lot (Which is $$$!) And it’s not that hard just follow instructions on street signs. And it’s much cheaper! Follow the road all the way down to the right you will see a few car slots there. We got lucky and where able to get a spot all 3 days we where there wed-Fri.

Absolutely loved our stay at Crystalbrook Albion. Staff was very nice and helpful. They held our luggage when we arrived early and it was in our room upon check-in. Location was perfect. Close to great dining options and a short walk from central station to get around town. Loved the danishes and muffins every morning.

This is a beautiful, well appointed hotel in the center of Surrey Hills. Walking distance to most everything you’ll want to see. The rooms are on the smaller side, but very comfortable and well appointed. They offer pastries fruit throughout the morning, coffee tea all day. There is a comfortable rooftop appointed with plants and flowers, French bistro chairs, and tables. It’s a perfect place to have breakfast or to work from. The staff was very nice and accommodating. I would highly recommend the Crystalbrook Hotel. I look forward to staying there again.

Enjoyed my stay at the hotel. Very clean and tidy with amenities there. Liked the self service bar. The back street on little Albion street can be quite narrow if there are cars parked. If you’re in an Uber XL or larger car, you may want to be mindful of going through the street. Nice and central location with good eateries. There is no room service here.

The Crystalbrook Albion in the Surrey Hills neighborhood of Sydney is an absolute gem. It's a small boutique hotel in a safe, quiet and very walkable area just a couple of blocks away from the very cool Crowne Street, where you'll find great restaurants (many pricey - but everything in Sydney is pricey esp at restaurants - but a few reasonable), and ice cream shops and a cool high end grocery. It's very cool, and the place to be. Any day of the week you'll find many Sydneysiders coming out for drinks or dinner and even without a car, or if you are travelling alone, you are steps away from being in the middle of things. It's a very european vibe, in fact I discovered an awesome very French style bar/cafe literally steps from my door. The hotel has excellent attentive staff, the place is furnished w great art, artful design touches throughout, plus free breakfast (delicious pastries and a cappucino machine in the cozy "Honor Bar"). My only quibble with the place is that the only way to communicate with the front desk if you need anything -is to text them via an ipad in the room but unfortunately no one told me they don't respond to the ipad (only a text back to your phone as I later learned) so I'd spend time waiting for a response that never came until much later after having to go to speak to them.They are on 24/7 though and very lovely and very responsive at the end of the day, so it was a minor issue. Otherwise, I love this place. Plus reasonable rates by US standards!
