My boyfriend and I had an amazing trip and have even re-booked for our next stay. Thank you again to the staff at Shakespeare you are all amazing ##### shelby Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Russell Apr 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities Made a big mistake with the date I booked but when I arrived they luckily had a spare room & adjusted my stay at no extra cost for which I’m incredibly grateful. Classic old style pub & hotel & the bed was comfortable. ##### Russell Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Matthew Sep 15, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location and easy to find your way around Sydney CBD. Noisy until 12pm (unbearably loud) and the room is musky, dated, and spartan. ##### Matthew Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Megan Apr 9, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Close to city.

Fortunately the bed was very comfortable, the room quiet and plenty of hot water in the shared bathroom. It’s a great pub by the way, including really good food. ##### Matt Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liz Jan 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is an old Sydney pub, you will be sharing a bathroom/toilets & climbing stairs etc. We loved it! The room was clean & comfortable. The toilets & bathroom was clean & well stocked with paper towels & soap. Meals were excellent & staff very friendly & accomodating. It's close to the City & walking distance to the SCG. We'll stay again 😊 ##### Liz ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leon Oct 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities You get what you pay for.

But the property itself is very old. The shared bathroom aren't kept clean by other fellow residents. Not all things work in the room itself. ##### DARSHAN Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Adam Jan 9, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities No TV, only a small computer monitor. No TV reception and the facilities (shower/toilets) were falling apart. ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha Feb 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Fabulous accommodation, so close to all the action. We chose this location because of its proximity (and easy public transport) to the Hordern Pavilion (for TISM in case you're wondering) and it is so close and convenient. We walked home from the venue, super quick and we walked into the city several times. The noise from the bar ends around midnight, although it never really bothered us. And although the rooms are dated, they are just stunning - lots of dark carpet and old furniture, but new mattress and aircon that works a treat. Shared bathrooms but there are two so there was never an issue with waiting for a shower or loo. And how convenient having a bar and bistro downstairs. Stoked we found this place and would definitely stay again. ##### Samantha Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marie Dec 10, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness Quirky and quaint, it had everything I needed. Room was dusty and carpet not hoovered in corners. It reminded me of share houses I’ve lived in. If you like the patina of peeling wallpaper and the spooky feeling that things might fall apart the Shakey lives up to its nickname. Creaky doors and floors and bad works of art complete the grunge setting. ##### Marie Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Dean Jun 7, 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the room, piping hot shower and friendly staff.

Comfortable bed, great location and the Saturday night noise wasn’t a bother at all. Bathroom needs work, but it’s all about the hot water and it didn’t run out! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JasonBaker, Byron bay Feb 18, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is a fabulous piece of history.

The hotel reflects the personality of the old English pub it rests above in decor and ambiance. The room was clean if 'ruffled' in decor, which is what one might expect from a pub. The bed was large, comfortable and very clean. The shared bathrooms could use some refreshing in the paint/tile/polish department but were serviceable. The rooms are on the third floor, so there is no noise I noticed from the pub below. The pub was fun and, again, what you might expect in a neighborhood English bar in vibe, food and drink. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made this a pleasant stay. ##### Jason Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service We enjoyed our stay in this old inner Sydney pub. Shared bathroom basic as you'd expect at a good price. Comfortable bed and aircondtioning great as very warm weather. Surry Hills neighbourhood fantastic with bars, restaurants and coffee shops. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Grace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-The-Grace-Hotel.h460380.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points By Sheraton Sydney, Central Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Sydney.h24101534.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Sydney Coogee Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-InterContinental-Sydney-Coogee-Beach-By-IHG.h1747.Hotel-Information) > > [YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-YEHS-Hotel-Sydney-Harbour-Suites.h426104.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Airport-Hotel.h5932305.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Sydney-Hyde-Park.h4807.Hotel-Information) > > [Playabachata](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Plata-Hotels-Playabachata-Resort-All-Inclusive.h23089497.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Australia Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-The-Tank-Stream.h11718621.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Delhi](https://www.expedia.ca/Indira-Gandhi-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aDEL-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sydney Harbour Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Harbour.h16764.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Sydney.h15886.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Shangri-La-Sydney.h11974.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Sydney Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Sydney-Airport.h38420088.Hotel-Information) > > [SKYE Suites Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-SKYE-Suites-Sydney.h24507540.Hotel-Information) > > [Little National Hotel Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Little-National-Hotel-Sydney.h54032015.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Kent Street, Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Kent-Street.h19290784.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Hilton-Sydney.h16892.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Montego-Bay-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Jamaica-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2057712.Hotel-Information) > > [Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Amora-Hotel-Jamison-Sydney.h454969.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sydney-Harbour-Marriott-Hotel-At-Circular-Quay.h18811.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Sussex Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Sussex-Street.h25019183.Hotel-Information) > > [PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-PARKROYAL-Darling-Harbour.h22576.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Sydney Wentworth](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sofitel-Sydney-Wentworth.h426577.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Free Airport Shuttle in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Hotels-With-Free-Airport-Shuttle.0-0-d178245-tHotelswithFreeAirportShuttle.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to New Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mia/toronto-to-miami) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Houston (IAH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/iah/toronto-to-houston)
