What guests think

Across recent reviews, Mrs Banks Hotel is praised for its convenient Paddington location near buses, shops and eateries, consistently warm, helpful staff, and comfortable, generally quiet rooms, with appreciated touches like complimentary pastries, fruit, and coffee in the lobby.

Room sizes vary; some are compact or windowless, and street-facing rooms can pick up traffic noise, though many guests found interiors quiet with comfortable beds. Cleanliness is largely strong, but a few guests reported dust or housekeeping gaps, and isolated maintenance issues such as shower leaks or a faulty TV. Facilities are limited - there is no on-site restaurant and no dedicated parking - so expect a compact set of amenities with excellent nearby dining and transport. A practical, well-situated stay in Paddington.

Mrs Banks is perfect accommodation for us when visiting our son and family who live nearby. We are return guests and hotel’s all round high standards and staff friendliness will mean we will be back to stay again when in Paddington. The only negative for out of town guests is that finding parking nearby can be difficult as there is no onsite parking at the hotel. is no onsite parking

Perfect spot when going to The Horden Pavilion. Second time we have stayed to see a gig - this time Jungle. 2 hour parking on Oxford St ends at 6pm - clearway commences at 6am so had to swiftly move car in the morning to around the corner and then vacate by 9am as 1 hour parking from 8am. Time for cafe breakfast as hotel well located. Nice boutique hotel with groovy vibe.

The room was tidy, though there was a noticeable build up of dust on the lamps and tables. The check in experience was very difficult. I rang the doorbell with no response and only got inside when another guest was leaving. After that, I waited about twenty minutes before anyone appeared. There was no bell or instruction at the desk, and even after calling multiple times no one came. After checking out, I returned briefly after grabbing a coffee and had the same issue. I pressed the doorbell but was not let in, and ended up standing outside in the cold and rain for fifteen minutes while waiting for my ride. The staff member at the desk saw me, I waved, and he still didn’t let me in. For a hotel, being able to enter safely and freely is important, and the whole experience felt unwelcome and unsafe.

Excellent location in the Paddington area with lots of great cafes, restaurants and pubs in the area. If staying, ensure you take time to visit Centennial Park - the flying foxes at dusk are amazing to see and if you go during the day you will find hundreds hanging from the trees in a specific area. Good transport connections with a bus stop close the hotel. Staff were very helpful and always on hand for any queries. Room clean and perfect for our needs. No breakfast facilities at the hotel but free pastries, biscuits and coffee/tea available each morning in Reception which worked for us.

Its Darlington location offers many places to eat within walking distance and there is fantastic public transport near by that will take you to Circular Quay or Bondi Beach within 15 minutes. We very much enjoyed our quant room with tea and danishes in the morning. The staff were very helpful and they made our stay very easy. I would stay there again.
