Annam Serviced Apartments

Quick and easy check in. Great location. Small but well appointed rooms. Great place to stay for a Sydney city break.

Very basic room, cheap mattress, no spare pillows or blankets. Extremely basic tea and coffee. Bathroom had broken fittings and stank of mold. Security cards did not work reliably so some stress about getting into building/rooms after dinner. No slot for returning key card after hours. The location is amazing and a little work on the rooms and comfort would go a long way.

It's certainly hard to beat the location and the price of this accommodation since it is in easy walking distance of bars, cafes, restaurants and King's Cross Railway Station. The latter makes it very easy for moving around Sydney on public transport and you're spoiled for choice when it comes to choosing where to eat or drink. But the downside was the bathroom of our apartment. The tiles were chipped, grout was mouldy in the shower, tapware was corroded and there was something odd about the toilet seat not fitting onto the pan correctly. There was no shelf in the shower but holes where there used to be one. In itself that wasn't a big deal but it did mean the choice to store soaps and shampoos was either on the floor of the shower or outside the shower on the bench next to the basin. Either option meant awkward reaching or bending. The bed was quite comfortable though not pillow top. If the bathroom had been cleaner, I certainly would have scored the accommodation higher but it's a major part of a stay.

I stayed two nights 28FEB - 1MAR and the Annam Apartments truly exceeded my expectations on many fronts. First, i'll highlight the value for money. It was World Pride in Sydney and as I was browsing hotel prices they were absolutely exorbitant. I managed to secure an excellent deal at the Annam for around £110 per night. As a point of comparison the Ibis Budget Sydney East down the road was charging £105 per night for a simple room. Secondly, the apartment itself. I was in apartment 34 and it was a great size and had absolutely everything in it that I needed. The building is certainly not new but it is well maintained and for me older style apartment buildings tend to have roomier apartments as the new more modern ones seem to have cracked the code in fitting apartments into the minimum amount of floorspace possible. Thirdly, the location was absolutely perfect for me. It was five minutes walk from Kings Cross station and five minutes walk from Rushcutters Bay park. You can easily walk into the city centre in 20-25 minutes if you don't want to take the train or bus. Finally, every staff member I dealt with was so friendly. I arrived at the apartments at 11am and had no expectation of being given a room, I was just going to leave my luggage and wander around until check in time. However they were able to accommodate me straight away which was great. This impressed me as I have stayed at hotels before where even when the room HAS been available early they try to charge you a 'fee' for early check in. Most impressively, I checked out and got half way to the airport when I had a feeling of utter dread. I had removed my travel wallet with my passport and a substantial amount of cash and hidden it in the room thinking I was being all clever. Stupid me, I left without it. I called the hotel and they quickly located the travel wallet and handed it over complete with all the contents - thank you so much. The only area for development is the wifi. This was not an issue for me, I was out and about a lot and had data on my phone so I wasn't bothered at all. BUT if wifi is a priority for you you may want to make other arrangements (buy a mobile wifi dongle or such) as the wifi in the hotel is pretty bad. Yes, I saw insects in the room. This is Australia in summer, I was on the third floor, I often had the windows open and you are going to see them anywhere you go. Just a few small ants and the only reason they appeared I imagine was to carry away a couple grains of rice I had inadvertently dropped on the floor. It did not bother me in the slightest I simply confiscated their prize (the rice) and they were gone. On this point, for my 40th birthday a couple years ago we splurged on a room at the Park Hyatt for £750 per night. We also saw insects in the room there. I definitely know where I will be looking to return to when I visit Sydney next.

My girlfriend and I stayed at your hotel for three nights between November 17th and November 20th. On November 18th at night I opened a kitchen cabinet to grab a glass and in there I saw a Roach running around. I trapped the Roach with one of the glass and put the glass on the floor for the housekeeper to remove it the next day. The housekeeper did remove it the next day. On November 20th at the middle of the night I woke up to use the wash room and after I came out I felt something brush by feet and I turned on the lights to see two roach running on the kitchen floor. I screamed waking up my girlfriend. One of the two roaches was giant, I grabbed a pot and hit the roach with it. The bottom half of the roach was crushed but it was still running. I was able to trouble the big roach under a glass and was able to trap the other roach under a glass as well. I can understand seeing 1 roach over the stay, but to see catch 3 roaches over two days given that we were only in the room at night to sleep is absolutely unacceptable and an indication that there a is much larger problem with the building.

I booked these apartments quite late in the day due to an unexpected change iny travel arrangements. The exterior of the building is dark and perhaps a little foreboding but hides a truly lovely comfortable base for a visit to Sydney. My apartment was well appointed with a huge super comfortable bed. The staff were extremely helpful with fresh towels and toiletries available every week day. The location gives you very easy access to Sydneys superb transport network with the bus stop and train station just around the corner. Also there is a Coles and. Woolworths within a 3 minute walk so you have everything you need. The Opera house, Circular Quay and Darling Harbour are within walking distance although a good stretch of the legs but the bus costs pennies so both are an option for you. A VERY reasonable airport transfer is on offer but I would caution that this is a shared transfer so allow plenty of time. My flight to Melbourne was already boarding when I checked in my bags.

This is the 2nd time I've stayed here. It's my preferred place for long-term accom. It's always clean, staff are wonderful and it has everything you need. Even a washing machine and clothes dryer. Great location. I'll be back here later this year for my 3rd visit. Fabulous boutique hotel which is serviced daily.

我們在蜜月期間（17年9月）在這公寓住了四天。他們給我們昇級了一間卧室的公寓。公寓寬敞，有洗衣機和烘乾機，還有一個功能齊全的廚房。床很舒服，有可愛的黑色百葉窗。接待人員非常樂於助人。這個位置對我們來說很棒。在一個好地方——國王十字車站，我們每天步行到雪梨市中心，不使用任何公共交通工具。步行到雪梨市中心大約需要30分鐘，但只10到15分鐘，你能到達一些著名的雪梨景點。總的來說，住得很好，我們肯定還會住在這裏。
