Latest Review for The Maze Backpackers

Stayed in a single room. NO WALL PLUGS in rooms. Was not advised this which was annoying they will charge things at reception though. Room was not cleaned before I got there absoutely filthy. Staff were pretty good when I complained and had it cleaned within an hour or so. Bathrooms were a bit gross leaking taps everyhere. Kitchen not 24 hours. Bed vey uncomfortable. Would not recomend it. Cheap and nasty in this case.

The Maze has been housing travellers ever since 1908 and at that time was the largest hotel in Sydney. There are definitely lots of interesting stories that fill these walls and corridors! We now give you 13 FREE DRINKS ON ARRIVAL!! (*if staying & paying for 3 nights or more) so come and have free drinks on us at some of Sydney's best bars & clubs!
