The Urban Newtown

Great little inner city hotel - love the vibe of the refurbished building. Rooms are small but not cramped, good use of space. Street noise is a little loud but to be expected when you're right in the middle of things, which is one of the best parts of the location!

We loved our stay at The Urban! The hotel is industrial, quirky, clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly. We were greeted with a free drink of beer, cider or wine and also received a voucher for free drinks from the Young Henry.
The room was clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. The shower was excellent! The location is close by to the Enmore Theatre, cafes, restaurants and public transport. Loved our stay would definitely stay again!

The rooms were a little smaller than I would have expected, but the location is great and the customer service pushed it to a 5 star review. I got in on an early flight and the receptionist Mandy was super helpful in taking down my number and texting me as soon as a room was available to check in early so I could shower and change before going out for the afternoon.

Great value, great location. Welcome drink at Young Henry’s, and afternoons downstairs a really nice touch. Rooms had great ammenities. Only issue was outside noise as it is in a busy area and close to airport. Not great for light sleepers but my partner slept through it all. Would stay there again.

Their staff were so friendly. They're very communicative, and before I checked in sent an email with local restaurants to check out and information about parking, luggage storage and staffed hours. I also emailed with an enquiry and they were responsive and helpful.
I stayed overnight, but would definitely recommend for longer stays.

We stayed at the Urban and the room was lovely, we were on the 3rd floor facing the side street so didn’t have any issues with noise. The room was well-equipped with a coffee machine, a small kitchen and a large bathroom with a rain head shower which we loved, the bed was a pillow top and very comfy and the pillows were supportive and really good quality.

The location of the hotel is amazing, everything is in walking distance and the train to the city is regular and easy to get to.

We were able to check in early which we really appreciated and were offered a complimentary drink of wine or beer. The reception staff were lovely and really friendly, we will definitely return.

absolutely love this place, walking distance from anywhere that is anything in Newtown. I have never enjoyed staying in a hotel so much for such a great price. The hydraulics engineer could of done a better job providing water pressure but even that seemed ok for such a funky place.

Our room was very functional and in a great location near the train station and other cool shops. Our room smelt like chlorine, but i put it down to being very clean. Also very thankful for the aircon, we would have died without it. Would stay there again.

Really lovely room, bed was super comfy! Brilliant location!! Loving the coffee/tea/ beer on offer!! (Bathroom a lil tight for space) thx for a stress free stay!

This is a great place to stay. Super convenient location. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Cool aesthetic. Very clean and comfortable.

Great location to explore Sydney. Simple but comfortable room. Free lobby mini bar beverages are a nice touch.

Super friendly staff. If you are going to the enmore or want to hang out in Newtown this is the place to stay.

My partner and I stayed for 2 nights. The rooms are small but functional and the bed was great. It's extremely convenient to public transport, bars, restaurants and the Enmore Theatre. If you're driving book a spot at the hotel very early as they're tough to get. If you miss out park at the Secure Parking Station next to the train station. It was pretty cheap for 48 hours and I got my car back intact lol I shall return next time Newtown calls me!

Small but comfortable room, good sized fridge, TV, cutlery and plates and great decor. In the best location, you walk out to bars and restaurants and it's a short walk from the Enmore Theatre.

This was such a great place to stay! So local to everything, central to stations, places to eat. The room we booked was for us and my pooch, the room was so tidy, clean and the lovely biscuits waiting for my doggy when we arrived. It is very dog friendly and has a cool modern vibe to the place. Highly recommended for any owners that wish to stay at a dog friendly place !

We got a King room on the 1st floor. My expectations were not overly high but from the moment we arrived they were surpassed. Free drinks on arrival. The service from the check in desk was first class and we felt appreciated as guests. Room was very clean, the bed was amazing ( we have a queen ) and the hotel was very quiet. Definately be back

Stayed here about a week ago. Staff were really friendly. Complimentary wine on check-in if you like it. Close to train station, Enmore Theatre, restaurants. The hotel had a really cool industrial/grunge style, with an awesome urban jungle/rainforest in the centre (worth going up to the upper level and looking down on it too), interesting artworks. I liked the style, and the beds were comfy and the room was quiet and air-conditioned, couldn't really hear any noise, from our room at least. If I had any complaints it would be that the room was a bit small - had two king singles that were meant to be separated but were basically almost together, and no powerpoint for charging phone next to one of the beds. The bathroom was a bit small too, but the showerhead was pretty good. I can't really complain though, for the price and the location, and if I'm ever in Newtown again I'd be happy to stay again. :)

At enmore theatre seeing bands 3 days in a row. It's so cool being able to walk 100m up the road to bed. One does like a beer or two, and being single is a bit of a worry travelling on a train or bus late at night after drinks. The garden in centre core was lovely. My card was deactivated against my other cards but easy to fix at midnight by staff. When I rang the number on their Web page, they were quick to wake up on site and come to my aid... soz about that :) .. excellent service . Surrounding shopping was a great vibe. Would definitely stay again. My only blah was I was woken by garbage truck and some upstairs noise, but they have ear plugs alongside shampoo conditioner, etc, and it is a noisy area, so to be expected. There is no food on site, but so many many many cafes around. I had Turkish honey cake, which was 9 layers of omg yum from King Street, best i have ever eaten.. awesome location, shopping, and food. Ooh, dumpling place across road is 5 stars too.

Had such a great stay with whole family. 8+ rooms booked. Rooms were tidy, clean, well appointed, staff were phenomenal. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quality stay in Newtown. We’ll be back.

Lovely place to stay, very helpful, friendly and accommodating staff. Awesome location if you're going to enmore theatre!
