Reviews for The Old Clare by Ode Hotels
Christine
Enjoyed a three night stay at The Old Clare Hotel. We loved the location close to Spice Alley and transport links. Our room was really spacious-great bed and interesting bathroom arrangement. Absolutely loved an early morning swim in the rooftop heated pool. Hotel staff in reception and at breakfast and in the main bar were really friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the variety available at breakfast most days. The events team at The Old Clare,however, need to consider the impact of holding large events on other guests. The rooftop bar was closed most evenings for ‘private’ groups and breakfast on the final morning was severely disrupted for other guests due to the arrangements made for a conference.

From check-in to check-out, this hotel exceeded our expectations. It’s great to see a classic Aussie pub reborn into something new. The wider hotel decor was vibrant and fun, suite layout spacious and considered, toiletries high quality and mini bar selection decent. More power outlets/USB outlets in the room would be nice. The staff were helpful and accommodating, though felt a little inexperienced at times, mostly at reception and the rooftop bar. The lift was slow. These were very minor downsides. We’d definitely return.

Outstanding service, very clean and cozy rooms! We stayed here a while back and only just got around to leaving a review. We were in Sydney for the Taylor Swift concert, despite being fully booked out that month the staff has made an immense effort to have our room ready 1 hour prior to check in. We really appreciated it! Sasha and another gentleman at the front desk were kind and very helpful with earlier check in, bags, where we could catch a train etc. The staff helped us store our bags prior to check in and also when we checked out before our later flight. When we arrived to our rooms our bags were already brought up there, which was very attentive! Rooms were very clean, beds were soft and pillows were perfect too. Our room had a glass bathroom (the glass is frosted so not see through), that was absolutely fine with us (but a heads up for others, do check your booking if it’s not your cup of tea). The hotel is also easy walking distance to the train station. Definitely recommend, thank you for the lovely stay and we will be back in the future!

My colleague and I, both working for a not-for-profit charity, booked two suites for four nights each. Prior to booking, we made several calls to ensure the rooms could accommodate joint meetings with the ability to plug in laptops and sit side by side. We were assured this was possible with an upgrade to a suite, we upgraded. However, upon arrival, we discovered the rooms were completely unsuitable. The only space where we could both sit for meetings was a low coffee table and couch with no available power outlets, forcing us to perch laptops on books. The hotel offered an alternative of paying an additional $200 per night or using the café after breakfast service. After multiple complaints, we had to drape an extension cord and power board across the bed to make do at the coffee table, which was only feasible for one day. We eventually had to incur the additional cost of hiring a nearby meeting room as the hotel’s meeting room was unavailable. Unfortunately, we were too busy to switch hotels so we managed with hiring an additional meeting room. Our complaints were met with indifference, and we were told there would be a discussion at checkout. However, when checking out to catch a flight, no one with authority was available. The customer service was absolutely abhorrent—expensive, inflexible, and disinterested. The only employee who made an effort to assist was the man who laid the extension cord and power board across the bed. Would not recommend if you are travelling for business or wish to be heard.

Service and location is unbeatable, super great. However for the price, I expected more cleanliness in the room. I stayed in the Abercrombie Room. The bathroom was not spotless, the screens had grime and dust on the tables. The bed is also super soft/sinks in so not ideal for long stays/guests with back problems.
