Rustic Hotels in Sydney, Australia
Sydney, Australia, boasts incredible sightseeing within the city itself, but it's the area surrounding the city that attracts outdoor enthusiasts from around the globe. The rugged terrain offers visitors the opportunity to participate in leisurely activities like hunting and camping or more extreme sports like rock climbing and base jumping.

Accommodations in Sydney are available to fit every lifestyle and budget, running the gamut from modern to historical. While the city is known for its modern architecture and design, Sydney's rustic hotels offer charm and character not found in more contemporary establishments.

Guests are treated to a hot breakfast, which is included in all room rates. Many rooms have balconies overlooking the historic neighborhood, and most balconies also have view of the harbor. All rooms include a television and refrigerator. The Glenferrie Lodge is also a pet-friendly location.
