I have stayed at Aarons Motel over 4 times over the years and I have found the motel to be up to expectations. I have never known the motel to be the “bells and whistles” type of accommodation but rather a cheap, yet comfortable, place to stay in the heart of Sydney.
The primary benefit of Aarons is its perfect location in the heart of Sydney, as it is within walking distance of many of Sydney’s iconic areas and public transport. It is truly unbelievable as to how well the motel is placed. For example, if you step out the front of Aarons Motel, you are:
- 20 metres from Paddy’s Markets (across the road)
- 400 metres from the Exhibition Centre
- 600 metres from Darling Harbour
- 600 metres from the Powerhouse Museum
- 200 metres from China Town
- 70 metres to the inner city monorail (gives access to many other attractions)
- 50 metres to tram station
- 200 metres to train station
The staff has always been friendly and helpful.

Located conveniently very near the trendy bars and clubs, only 1 block, it’s a great place to stay in St Kilda. But because of this, it is quite a noisy location. It is best suited for those that want to spend the day sleeping in the sun, and the nights living the nightlife. It’s also only 3 blocks from the nice white sandy beach.
Rooms were nice and big and also clean. There is also a plasma TV, internet connection, good work area for business travelers, and the bed is very comfortable. And at $130 for the room, it was a good summer price at a time that a lot of hotels raise their prices. I also found the staff very friendly and helpful. If you manage to drag yourself away from the beach, there are many things to due in Melbourne’s St Kilda area. And make sure you try the tram, as it’s a delightful trip.

I stayed here for only one night back in 2005 as part of business trip that had the flight back to the UK delayed by a day. The rooms were a good size, and even though some of my colleagues had warned me there had been problems with some of the furnishings in the hotel, my room was clean and comfortable.
You could self cater (I didn’t get the chance) as the room had a small microwave, kitchen and fridge. The staff were helpful and made what could have been a rather stressful situation, as calm as possible. The location was good but I was unable to take advantage in the short time I stayed there.
Situated right next to the Southbank Park area and only little way away from the train station, I regretted not having an extra day. All I managed to sample were some of the restaurants in the Southbank Park area, which were of an excellent quality.
