Hotels in the Inner West

Choosing a Hotel for Your Event

Where you stay in the Inner West should follow the venue, not the other way round. The region runs from Newtown, Enmore and Glebe through Marrickville and St Peters, across to Balmain, Rozelle and Lilyfield, and west to Burwood and Strathfield. Trains, buses and ferries each serve different parts, so a room that suits a Newtown wedding may be awkward for a party in Balmain.

A quick way to narrow down the Inner West for a short stay:

Name the suburb of the event first, then look at which transport links run from there.
For Balmain, Rozelle and Lilyfield, check the bus and ferry options before assuming a train will do.
For events out towards Sydney Olympic Park, the Burwood end of the region is the handier base.
If you are driving, parking tends to be easier around Burwood than in the CBD.
Travelling solo or as a couple, a room for two with a kitchenette is often all you need.

Party Hero's Inner West hotels are in Burwood at present: Comfort Inn & Suites Burwood, from $127 per night, and The Park Oasis Burwood. Burwood is a busy centre around Westfield Burwood with a strong Asian food scene, and its station is on the main western line into the city. So it works well as a base for an event in Burwood itself, a concert at Sydney Olympic Park or a trip into town, while the eastern pockets of the region are reachable once you've checked the route. Anyone arriving by plane should allow for a cross-city transfer, since Burwood sits well away from the terminals.

Weddings and parties in Newtown, Enmore or Marrickville: weigh the trip from your base against getting home late at night.
Celebrations in Balmain, Rozelle or Lilyfield: these pockets lean on buses and ferries, so plan the return journey.
Family events in Burwood or Strathfield: staying locally keeps everything close.
Games and concerts at Accor Stadium or Qudos Bank Arena: Burwood is a practical overnight stop.
