The Hornsby Inn

Just for the price, you won't expect same quality as meriton servoced apartment.

I stayed there 4 nights I'm rating it a warm and friendly 3 stars. Not because Hornsby Inn failed, but rather because it succeeded despite itself. The bed was very comfortable. The room was small, but tidy. The toilet smelled of urine, but I went to the Coles at the Westfield Mall across the road and got some bleach-based bathroom cleaner and sorted that out in minutes. The bathroom was spotless otherwise. The street is noisy and people partying in the area could be loud at times. Occasionally cigarette smoke from the street below would waft in the window. I'm a non-smoker.

There are two pokie parlours one floor below and a bevy of bars I never did make any sense of. The "Absolute Thai" restaurant on the same level was obviously popular. I had dinner there one evening. Thai cuisine isn't really my thing, but I ate it all and wasnt hungry after. There is also a TAB *and* a drive-through bottle store. Before you gamble (if you do) there are numerous signs warning about gambling responsibly. They are a bit faded, like the Inn itself. But think well worn old slippers, rather than decrepit. It will help.

It's close to Hornsby train station. Probably the closest hotel.

You can't really cook in the room, but it had a fridge and was good for storing the elements of cold dishes like wraps and fruit with meusli, nuts, and yogurt.

Checking in required chasing a bartender to then chase whoever it is who checks you in. Allow 15-20 minutes. But once done, it's done. The staff were all very nice if you bumped into any.

The area might give you concerns for your personal safety, but one night I accidentally left my room key in the door and went to bed. It was still there in the morning. No problem. That time, anyway.

Despite having all the key ingredients of a really horrible, grotty place, it isn't a horrible, grotty place. I enjoyed my stay and if I needed to visit the area again I'd book a very cheap, mostly clean, comfy room at the Hornsby Inn with the confidence arising from a better-than-expected 3-star, 4- day stay.

Great pub and accomodation. Get what you pay for, very accommodating hosts. Also give you a discount for the restaurant downstairs.

Hornsby inn good location close to Westfield and train station.good atmosphere service very good

I had a meal at absolute Thai and the pork belly was amazing!

Went to their bar to catch up with a mate on Wednesday Night. It's decent place with a reasonably priced bar. If don't like crowded places where you have to speak on top of your voice to have a conversation with your fellas; then this is a good place!! specially the bar at the back. Not sure why they couldn't run a tab (seemed like short staffed that night) so had walk over to the counter to pay for each round.. but that was okay!! Didn't eat so can't say about food! Will check it out again.

The room very clean great price. The bar staff absolute bunch of lazy no good young bums stood at the bar for 10 min to get served.
