Driving direction from Sydney international or domestic airport (SYD): Exit the airport, following the signs to the city, via Airport Drive and then Qantas Drive (over approximately 2 km). Turn left at Robey Street and then left again at O’Riordan Street. Travel for approximately 3.2 km and then turn left at Botany Road. After a short distance, turn left at McEvoy Street, Waterloo, and then immediately right at Wyndham Street, Alexandria, which becomes Gibbons Street near Redfern train station, and then Regent Street (after crossing Cleveland Street). Near Central Station, Regent continues as Lee Street. At the set of traffic lights (where Lee Street meets George Street), take the left hand lane and then feed (right) into George Street, travelling north. The Pensione Hotel is approximately 400 metres on the left (before Goulburn Street). If it is difficult to stop the car due to congestion, turn left at the next street (Goulburn Street) and then immediately left again into Sussex Street, and park at the rear entrance of the hotel. If guests are not being dropped off and wish to park a car, this is best done prior to checking in. The parking station with which Pensione Sydney has forged a discount rate is approximately 100 metres away. Hence it is best to keep luggage to a minimum or packed within bags on wheels/trolley. Follow all driving instructions (above) up until the intersection of Lee and George streets. Instead of turning into George Street, turn sharp right into Pitt Street and travel approximately 500 metres to Campbell Street. Take a left turn here to find Capitol Square Parking Station. Park and retain the parking ticket to present at the Pensione Hotel’s reception. Proceed to the end of the street at the T-junction with George Street.
