Hotels in Surry Hills

Choosing a Hotel for Your Event

Staying in Surry Hills means waking up among pubs, cafes and restaurants rather than office towers, on the south-eastern fringe of the CBD. Dinner the night before and coffee the morning after are both a short stroll, and so is Central, with light rail stops inside the suburb as well, so reaching a city venue or the airport train needs no car. That matters, since parking here is limited. The four listed hotels each cover a different corner of the suburb and a different kind of guest.

Here is how they compare for an event trip:

Paramount House Hotel, on Commonwealth Street, has 29 rooms built for two, from $240 per night, in the old Paramount Pictures building with the Golden Age Cinema downstairs.
Riley Street's ADGE Hotel & Residences is the largest, with 254 rooms from $199 per night, among them a three-single-bed Triple Room for friends splitting the bill.
57 Hotel sits on Foveaux Street at the Central end of the suburb, with free morning pastries and fruit and a Nespresso bar in the lobby that never closes.
Crown Street's Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney Surry Hills is the pick if you want an apartment, with a lounge, full kitchen and washer-dryer in every unit.
Families have choices at three of the four: 57 Hotel's Dancing Queen Twin holds four, ADGE has two-bedroom residences, and Paramount House Hotel provides free cots for under-fours in most rooms.

Check-in and check-out times differ between them, so confirm the details before you plan around a ceremony. 57 Hotel, for instance, starts check-in at 2pm and has guests out before 10am, with bags stored either side. Paramount House Hotel, by contrast, keeps its front desk open around the clock.

Paramount House Hotel's Sunny rooms and ADGE's King Balcony Room add outdoor space, giving a little more room to lay out outfits and get ready.
For anyone wheeling suitcases, ADGE points guests to Museum Station rather than Central, which takes roughly 10 to 12 minutes on foot.
Paramount House Hotel keeps a 24-hour front desk and a round-the-clock mini mart in its atrium lobby, welcome after a late reception.
57 Hotel has a firm no-parties rule, so it suits guests who want sleep rather than a place to host the after-party.

Driving into Surry Hills

Spaces on the street are scarce, so sort out each hotel's arrangement before bringing a car.
ADGE can park you on site, though the driveway is narrow and large SUVs struggle.
Paramount House Hotel validates tickets for guests at the Wilson car park on Liverpool Street.
The Adina's own secure spaces sit below the building, reached from Fitzroy Street, but there aren't many and the clearance is 2m.

Common Questions About Event Stays

Which Surry Hills hotel is closest to Central for the airport train?

57 Hotel on Foveaux Street is at the Central Station end of Surry Hills, which makes it an easy base for train arrivals. Paramount House Hotel is about a ten-minute walk from Central, or you can use Museum Station instead.

The Triple Room at ADGE Hotel & Residences puts three single beds in one room. At 57 Hotel, The King Plus One adds a single bed to a king for up to three guests.

Is there a Surry Hills hotel with a pool for a weekend stay?

Of the four listed, Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney Surry Hills is the one with a pool on site, along with a gym, garden and BBQ area. Paramount House Hotel instead gives guests access to a partner gym in the CBD with a pool, sauna and classes for a per-visit fee.
