Expert reviews

CN Traveler review:

“The Ace, 18 stories high with 257 rooms, is located in a magnificent early-20th-century building that vibrates with top-to-toe creative energy. Revived by Australia’s most in-demand interior architects, Flack Studio, the former brick factory has kept its old bones – high ceilings and exposed brick and concrete walls – offset with one-of-a-kind furniture, art, and bric-a-brac by the country’s best designers, artists, and makers.”

Featured in CN Traveler’s Hotlist 2023.

Telegraph review:

“This design-centric hotel in the inner-city neighbourhood of Surry Hills, Sydney’s coolest enclave, proves that there is more to Sydney than just its beaches and harbour. It’s ground floor bars and rooftop restaurant has made this a top-to-toe hang-out for Sydney’s in-the-know crowd.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

Located near the central business district, in the trendy and upscale Surry Hills area, the Ace Hotel Sydney is the brand’s first venture in the Southern Hemisphere. However, its execution is just as confident as any of their other hotels.

Housed in a 19th-century industrial building, it exudes a charming patina that embodies the essence of both the Ace brand and Australian culture. The designers have done an exceptional job in creating a space that constantly reminds guests of their unique location and the community they are a part of.

The rooms at Ace Hotel Sydney share the same aesthetic as their counterparts in North America. They feature vintage-inspired wool blankets, subtle retro touches, and a cozy atmosphere.

Some rooms even come equipped with turntables or acoustic guitars, while elements like exposed brick walls add an extra layer of visual interest.

Very convenient location 10/10, beautiful design, great vibe. Shower was amazing

The sound insulation to the city is great, but you do hear everyone outside your room as they return to theirs, which can be quite loud for light sleepers

It was a beautiful old property restored to a very high level. Throughout the hotel everything was of a high standard which probably my reason for a slightly lower rate was the room was on the small side for us with our cases but with historical buildings you have to compromise somewhere. staff super helpful and friendly and they did their utmost to get our room ready as we had arrived at 8am after a 24 hour flight. Would definitely return ...

Our fav place to stay in Sydney

Friendly vibe across reception, cafe and bar staff including bar security. The room was super clean room, well designed with a particularly comfortable bed and the perfect amount of room for a 2 night stay.

This hotel just became our fav place to stay in Sydney. We will be back again soon and hoping that you change very little.....except maybe a designated drop off/pick up area in front of the hotel for added convenience.

Very good

A very unique hotel, we enjoyed the creativity and the colours. Seems like a very luxurious hotel with the restaurants and great reception staff. Good amenities

Although there is a shower door, the water pools underneath and soaks the floor mat, having to wipe it up everytime. The lights in the room were very dark at the entry, although some are on dimmers still hard to see. The guitar and the record player were an interesting touch but created more clutter in the double double room and we wanted to put our things on the tables

Fun hotel in the heart of Sydney!

This is a very fun hotel! Our room had a vinyl player so we brought our own vinyls to use which really elevated the experience. The room design is very thoughtful. Plenty of storage areas and places to put your bags. Great location, would definitely return again.

The reception was incredibly busy as there were only two staffed rostered on when there probably needed to be at least 4-5. Minor complainant but makes asking questions at the front desk a bit difficult.

Location fantastic & the beds and pillows extremely comfortable

Very low lighting which made it difficult to get ready. I couldn’t find the hair dryer and it was instant coffee, I would have expected a coffee machine in this style of accommodation and price point.

It was a nice short stay at Ace Hotel Sydney. We would love to come back and stay there again

I like Ace Hotel for its location, relative new, the rooms are clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. It has a casual up market vibe; not too serious.

Nothing really.
