康科德飯店(Hotel Concord)

We flew in on an early flight from NZ, called ahead to see if ok for us to book in early, concord hotel staff member she said yes no problem make your way, On arrival she took payment up front! Then we were taken to get keys for our room, no keys, previous person still in our room. Hallway smelt of fresh vomit, still on wall not totally cleaned away, we were told she would sort out our room would give us a free drink while we waited in bar, we had the free drink, she gave us new keys to our room apologised and asked if we needed her to show us our room, we didn’t think it would be an issue and trusted it would be ok, we Brought lunch which at venue was great, proceeded to our new room to find that it was a pokey single share room which only had 2 single beds for hubby and I! Please note we purchased a double room with queen bed. Coffee mug wasn’t washed from previous visitors, disappointed!

Known as Hotel Concord, this is a lovely local pub in a quiet neighbourhood. The pub has been renovated while keeping many period features like stained glass windows. The rooms are upstairs above the bar. While ear plugs are recommended, the bar noise wasn’t very loud but the pub does close late on weekends. The rooms are large, renovated and well appointed. There are different bedding combinations at different prices, but even the “single” was a king single. The rooms all have Smart TVs, a kettle, tea & coffee amenities, cupboards, chairs, lamps & air conditioners. There are several shared sex bathrooms available as well as separate toilets. The Smart TVs include Foxtel and Netflix with Optus Sports channels too, as well as free to air options. A nice touch are plantation shutters on windows which also reduced street noise. The beds however are still extremely soft & need mattresses replaced for more stable options. The pub is across the road from Concord West train station and an easy walk to the Sydney Olympic Park precinct through lovely parks and wetlands. It’s surrounded by well designed cycle paths too. The entire area is very safe for a solo traveller to walk at night back from local events. There’s free street parking on weekends and easy access to major arterials. The staff are very friendly and efficient. There’s a guest entrance direct to the street which makes accessing the accommodation very easy. The pub is surrounded by good quality eateries, and has a local supermarket, bottle shop & gym 2 minutes away. A definite must visit. The only negative was the inflated price during a major event, at least double what was expected?

I can tell you how unclean it is - from the mini fridge and bathrooms not having been cleaned for 2 months with gunk in the corner. Or that whoever put the 'clean' towels on the bed, had dirty hands and left dirty finger prints on those towels. Or that the bed was covered in a flat sheet, then there was a quilt with no quilt cover, but rather a flat sheet on top - therefore you have to wrap yourself in the top flat sheet for the night rather than in bed. But the biggest issue I had was that they photo copied my card details and one of the staff members either used those details or did not dispose of my details properly. I had 5 unauthorised transactions on that card. How do I know it's associated with this hotel? Because this is the first time I have used that card in at least 6 months, and one of the transactions was for a place near the hotel. Narrow it down and it all comes to this hotel. I would never, ever stay here again. Would never recommend it. Go anywhere but.

When I entered the property I was greeted by Staff that were very friendly and professional. Sadly it all goes down hill from there, on being give the keys to the room I opened what looked like an cheap council door to see dirty sides with filthy cups and a kettle looked like it’s been in shreks swamp.blood on the actual duvet it self.paint thrown at the walls and everything else that got in the way of it.after taking all this I went to put the tv on to find the leads for it to be hanging out of a box with no tv which was promised. To top it off no sleep from the noise going on within the hotel. very dissatisfied

The staff were nice and the food was fantastic but the Airconditioning in our room was broken and we were unable to sleep. The room reached temperatures of over 35 degrees and even with the window open and fan on remained that hot well into the morning after 2 nights of no sleep we decided to end our trip a day early. Spoke to staff it appeared to be a known issue and no solution was provided. Recommend checking the Airconditioning works prior to booking.

The place was clean, staff were friendly. Good to have a seperate entrance but the stairway was a bit smelly. Great showers/bathroom although shared. The fan in the room didn't work without the light on and the bed was quite uncomfortable due to sagging. The room could be quite hot in summer.

Location. very handy to Concord West train station, basically right across the road from it, was ideal for people like us utilising public transport. Check In. This was conducted in the main bar, was quick, seamless and completed in a very short time. One thing that we have never had happen at a pubstay before was the girl who checked us in then took us upstairs and gave us a full run through of our rooms facilities, a walk down to the corridor to show the exit, emergency escape, explained the muster point, then location of the facilities. Room was equipped with fan and air con, tv was good, and sufficient power points for recharging. Facilities. Facilities have recently been upgraded and are clean and in sufficient numbers for the rooms on the floor. All showers/toilets are unisex, so no individual 'male'/'female' areas. We arrived too late for a meal but certainly made use of the bar facilities whice remain open till 2am. No bar noise was audible in the room, and the occasional train passing was no more than a distant rumble, not enough to wake you. One negative thing with the room was there were no cup, no coffee and no milk, only tea bags and sugar. PRO's: Close to rail station. Clean and recently re-done rooms and facilities. Full explanation of accommodation area including emergency procedures. Friendly staff and a good, local pub feel about it. CON's: No milk, coffee or cups/mugs in the room. Price was a bit high. In all I was satisfied and would stay there again.
