Quick one night stay to be close to Newtown. We found the apartment itself to be quiet, spacious and with modern furnishings. Great comfortable large bed. We booked online early through the Medina website and ordered the more romance package (including a bottle of wine, Lindt chocolates and a late checkout of 12 noon). Upon arrival there were no wine... More

My studio was spacious and well equipped with good block out curtains and a comfortable bed. This is a good place to stay for business purposes and if you have... More

Medina’s in my opinion are pretty average and this Medina certainly confirmed this view. We decided to stay here as accommodation for a 2 bed apartment nearer the city is so expensive. This wasn’t cheap, but good value considering the price of accommodation in Sydney generally. The apartment itself was average, some signs of wear and tear and the rooms... More

Really enjoyed our stay at the Medina Classic. Location was excellent in close proximity to restaurants and the Redfern Train Station is a short 5 minute walk away. We had a 2 bedroom apartment on the 1st floor at the rear of the premises. Apartment was well furnished and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. Reception staff extremely... More

Booked only for one night and have a guess whats happened...again the fire alarm went off, lucky not in the middle of the night this time as with other guests. The Hotel is in need of some refurbishing, some chipped furniture, it was clean. Would not give a 4 Star rating, rather a good 3 Star More

I recently booked a one bedroom room here and was upgraded automatically to a two-bedroom. The apartment was very clean, nicely laid out, private and secure. It was a little bit shabby in very minor ways - a few tatty powerpoints, that sort of thing - but I felt very comfortable.The staff were really nice and helpful in every way.... More
