Macarthur Beach Vacations

This was a last minute booking and I was able to book this smoothly within hours of checking in. The hotel is nicely located with a grocery store, pharmacy and restaurants within 3 minutes walking distance. It is close to public transport - within walking distance on a main road to Central station, buses and light rail. I had a room booked for 1 night which was clean, modern, with good amenities - robe, slippers, tea & coffee & various selections for the minibar. I utilized the kettle for my tea, appreciated this immensely! I ended up extending my stay for 4 nights - but switched rooms due to availability. The only suggestion I have is for plugs to be upgraded to include USB/UBC outlets for easy charging ports near the bed and at the built in table. Upgraded lighting around the bathroom mirror would make a noticeable difference and I’m not sure there was a separate fan for the bathroom so got quite steamy during showering! All hotels I have stayed at for this price point have had a clear fan system for bathrooms. Safe for solo travelers! Would stay here again. Note ** The rooftop pool and bar were closed for the winter season so was unable to access these amenities despite the weather being warm and pleasant.

Good location. Room expensive for what it is.

Wow, the Medusa is absolutely fabulous! Love the beautifully designed interior which has bags of character and uses gorgeous colours, textures and sumptuous materials to create a feeling of period splendour and true luxury. Staff were fun, friendly and helpful. Evenings on the balcony, shaded by a pretty tree complete with fairylights and the occasional visit from a shy possum, were divine. A truly memorable stay.

Sadly my stay was riddled with problems hence the rating. The blind broke the first time I used it, the clock alarm was preset without me knowing so woke me at 1am, the bed was sagging (so deeply uncomfortable). There were so many strands of long black hair left on the floor of the bathroom (I'm blonde), and I was placed next to a family with toddlers who's bedtime routine was to leave them to scream for 2 hrs each night from 10pm to 12am whilst they went to the bar for drinks. Other points for future travellers; they charge for water (no daily free bottles like other hotels). There are no Robes in the rooms. Pros: Location is a 2 mins walk to Museum Train station. The Sydney Cidery (Bar) has excellent pizza The room has a Desk and Sofa

Over all very Happy with our room etc.

Class all the way and Phillip at reception was brilliant. The advice he gave regarding local restaurants was well received and accurate. The only disappointment was we had only one night there! We will be back!

Beautiful hotel with a great location, helpful staff, lovely amenities, and dining options. Breakfast included is a nice option and the food is delicious.
