Your Entry To Paradise

The New South wales accommodation scene is dominated by the huge Sydney hotels and apartments marketplace plus the holiday resort sector all along the coastline . There is a great collection of traditional and boutique hotels throughout the Sydney CBD and surrounding areas such as The Rocks, Darling Harbour, Woolomooloo ans Surry Hills  . Sydney hosts a lot of special events such as conferences, sports events, exhibitions, concerts and entertainment and it’s not uncommon to have a shortage of beds in the CBD and inner city at those times.

Airport transfers can often involve a trip of some distance to and from the accommodation. It’s a good idea to always check if transfer costs are going to add any unplanned expense to the budget. For a hassle free arrival in Sydney , it’s a good idea to pre-book  Sydney airport transfers.

So the message is …. book your Sydney accommodation well in advance and if you want accommodation for the Sydney New Year celebrations, then book as far in advance as possible and be prepared for premium tariffs for those nights !

Sydney offers an excellent selection of apartments, both serviced and unserviced, that provide a home away from home atmosphere and an alternative to the usual hotel suite. Some apartments have a fully equipped kitchen with self catering capability and others will offer a kitchenette with only limited cooking capability.

The NSW coastline to the north and south of Sydney is dotted with numerous popular beaches that attract hordes of holiday makers during school holiday periods. The available accommodation at these beach locations is made up of holiday resorts and apartments (condominiums) that service the holiday demand .

The apartment accommodation ranges from 1 to 4 bedrooms, complete with an equipped kitchen for self catering and with all linen included. Guests only need to bring their personal effects and foodstuffs.  Apartments usually have a minimum stay requirement of 2 or 3 nights in low season periods with longer minimum stays during peak seasons . Hotels and motels are recommended for single night stays.

The Blue Mountains and Southern Highlands, both inland from Sydney, have several well known guest houses which are very popular with Sydney residents seeking the relaxation of a week-end break. New South Wales has an excellent selection of bed and breakfast properties , especially in the Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands and South Coast regions. Boutique rural lodges, secluded bush cabins, week-end retreats and farm stays all provide lodging options away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney .

Hotel numbers decline as you move away from the coast into the country regions where motels and motor inns become the usual accommodation available .  

So there you have it…. everything from world class hotels and apartments through to budget backpacker hostels in Sydney, holiday apartments and resorts along the coast with motels and motor inns in the country areas.
