Beacon Inn is very conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Sydney and the wharf. The building is attractive and has character. Room included a fireplace, 4-poster bed and oversized tub. Only suggestion is that the breakfast included be served in the very nice downstairs sitting room rather than in room. Adding a European style coffee machine would be amazing too.

Beautiful small boutique hotel in the heart of the city. Room was large with a comfortable bed, attached bathroom and fireplace. Breakfast was put in a small fridge in my room for the next morning. I found the front desk situation odd though. No one at the desk before 10 am or after 8 pm. Tried calling at 9:30 am to ask how to check out but no one answered. Guests are responsible for making sure the front door was locked when desk person not there, slightly discomforting.

Good location, close to downtown Sidney. Everything is within walking distance. Great Chinese restaurant across the street. Our room (Saturna) was a bit cramped and had the most uncomfortable bed.

Don't forget your shampoo LOL

The Beacon is a very nice place to stay and the location is perfect. The only "issues not issues" we had was that the mattress was getting worn drooping in the middle and it was filled with extra bedding on the top to compensate for the dip in the center and unfortunately making the bed high centered and I fell out of the bed twice. The shampoo was watered down, half filled and a bit old I say due to the smell and there is no bar soap. I know what everyone is thinking. Who doesn't bring their own grooming product and you're right but this is one time I forgot thought I could use Beacons. The only other concern we had was the poor lighting at night in the parking area. There simply isn't any. I don't think I would feel safe if I wasn't with my husband.

Lovely old English style boutique hotel, beautiful foyer, breakfast room and my suite (named Orcas Island) was quaintly decorated and very comfortable. Brian was on the desk for checkin and he was most pleasant. Sidney is a lovely walkable sea-side town with lots of choices for eating and shopping.
