Why NYE here

The best part of NYE is not having to get home.

  • Walk home at 12:30

    No train queues, no road closures, no surge-priced rideshare. Darling Harbour is 4 minutes from the door.

  • One room, the whole crew

    Private rooms for 4, 6 or 8 people, so your group gets ready together and stays together.

  • Free dinner on NYE

    Dinner is free every night, New Year's Eve included. Eat together at the hotel, then head out.

  • Solo or a pair?

    Pod beds with privacy curtains sit next to the private rooms. Same location, same walk home.

Your NYE, sorted

How the night goes from 22 Allen Street

Sydney's fireworks run at 9pm and midnight. Foreshore spots fill early, so a base this close lets you head out late and get back easily.

See rooms for your crew
  1. 3pm

    Check in

    Drop your bags, claim your beds and get ready together.

  2. Evening

    Free dinner, then the water

    Eat at the hotel (dinner is on us tonight too), then pick a spot on the Darling Harbour or Pyrmont foreshore. Check the City of Sydney NYE guide for vantage points and access.

  3. 9pm

    Early fireworks

    The first fireworks of the night, a good warm-up before midnight.

  4. Midnight

    The big one

    Sydney's midnight fireworks over the harbour.

  5. After

    Walk home

    While the city queues for trains, you're a short walk from bed.

Bring the crew

Get ready together, head out together.

A private room means one place for the whole group to get ready, and a bed each when you get back. Dinner is included every night, so the budget goes on the night out.

  • Private rooms for 4, 6 or 8, with en-suite options
  • Lockers and luggage storage for everyone
  • Air con for a summer night's sleep

Free dinner, every night

Come home to a hot meal and new friends.

Our chef cooks dinner every night and it's included with every room. It saves you money in one of the world's priciest cities, and the shared table is the easiest way to meet people. Just tell us by 4pm if you're eating.

“Awesome experience here at Azzurro! Although only stayed for one night, I very much enjoyed my stay. The rooms and beds are very clean. I was also given exceptional service from Florence who helped me check in, my room change and more! Thank you so much for being so lovely and helping me with everything. I will definitely be stopping by again when I am back in Sydney.”

Questions

Good to know

Still not sure? Message us and a real person will reply.

How close are you to the NYE fireworks?

Darling Harbour is a 4 minute walk from 22 Allen Street, and the Pyrmont foreshore is close by. Official vantage points, access and any ticketed areas are listed in the City of Sydney NYE guide.

Is dinner on New Year's Eve?

Yes. Dinner is free every night of your stay, New Year's Eve included. Eat together at the hotel before you head out for the fireworks.

Can we get one room for our whole group?

Yes. We have private rooms for 4, 6 and 8 people. Set your group size at the top of the page and the private rooms that fit show first.

Will NYE sell out?

Rooms for New Year's Eve book early, and the private rooms tend to go first. The room list shows exactly what's left for your dates.

Is dinner really free?

Yes. A chef-cooked dinner is included every night of your stay, whatever room you book. Let us know by 4pm if you're eating so the chef cooks enough.

What is a pod?

A pod is a bed in a shared room with its own privacy curtain, a power point and a locker. You share the room, but you get your own little space to sleep.

Is there a female-only room?

Yes. We have a female-only pod room with its own bathroom. Pick it from the room list above while beds last.

Can I book a private room for my group?

Yes. Set the number of guests at the top of the room list and you'll see private rooms for 4, 6 or 8 people next to the pod beds.

Where are you exactly?

22 Allen Street, Pyrmont. Darling Harbour is a 4 minute walk, ICC Sydney about 11 minutes and Town Hall station about 14 minutes on foot.

What time are check-in and check-out?

Check-in is from 3pm and check-out is by 10am. Arriving early? Leave your bags with us and go explore.

Is the price I see the price I pay?

Yes. The price on each room is the full amount you pay, GST included. Nothing gets added at checkout.

Can I cancel?

All bookings are non-refundable. The full amount is charged at the time of booking, and no refunds will be issued under any circumstances, including cancellations or no-shows. No refunds will be issued for early departures once the guest has checked in, regardless of whether the booking is refundable or non-refundable.

Your NYE base, 4 minutes from the harbour.
