Sydney city centre is about 20 minutes by car or a 45-minute bus ride. The airport is a 25-minute taxi ride. Parking on-site is limited and pre-booking is essential. Walking is the best way to get around the immediate area, and the nearby bus stops connect to the city. For airport access, taxis or rideshares are the most convenient option.

King rooms can be configured with two twin beds on request. For families of four, the Green room or a Studio room in the Boutique section is recommended.

Light sleepers should request a room away from the main venue.
