About the Place

The Maisonette – A Charming Stay for Independent Travelers
Locally owned and operated, The Maisonette offers a welcoming and affordable stay for independent travelers who prefer a self-sufficient experience without the need for 24-hour onsite service.

Nestled in the village-like urban neighborhood of Potts Point, our heritage property dates back to 1929. This sought-after area, located on the edge of Sydney Harbor, is home to renowned cafes, restaurants, and bars, making it a fantastic destination for food lovers. Independent boutiques, vintage stores, and the vibrant Saturday local market add to the charm of this unique neighborhood.

Limited Front Desk Hours – Seamless Self-Check-In
Please note that our front desk operates with limited hours during the day, and check-in is available from 2:00 PM.
If you arrive outside of front desk hours – we’ll have your key securely stored in a lockbox by the front door.
Our team is always available via phone or messaging apps should you need any assistance.

ROOM OPTIONS.

We offer three room types, all accessible via a central staircase (please note, there is no elevator):

King and Twin rooms – Ideal for couples or friends, featuring a private ensuite.
Single room – Perfect for solo travelers, with a shared bathroom.
Rooms are serviced weekly, ensuring a comfortable, fuss-free stay.

Explore Sydney with Ease
The Maisonette is just a 10-minute walk from the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens, leading to the Opera House and Sydney Harbor foreshore. Hop on a ferry to Manly, explore The Rocks and Darling Harbor, or dove into Sydney’s central shopping district. Sydney’s famous beaches are also easily accessible via the city’s excellent public transport network.

A Touch of 1929 History
The Maisonette first welcomed guests in 1929, an era when the Sydney Harbor Bridge was under construction, marking Sydney’s rise as an international travel destination. Our rooms are styled to reflect elements of this rich history while offering modern comfort.

We look forward to welcoming you to Potts Point – a neighborhood loved by locals and travelers alike!

Standard Hotels offered through misterb&b

Because we foster the largest community of gay travelers, we need to ensure all are welcome anywhere they go. Of course you may search for a private room or a full apartment from our gay and gay-friendly hosts. But sometimes, you would rather search for a hotel in a particular location or with certain amenities.

To help in your search we have selected a few standard hotels that we believe are a good fit for LGBTQ+ travelers.

Why did we select these hotels?
Because of their location, services, amenities, rates, and overall good reputation, we believe these hotels can appeal to LGBTQ+ travelers. At this point though, we haven’t been able to vet their welcoming attitude and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
We also help ensure hotels with a history of homophobic behavior, or whose owners are homophobic, are not listed on misterb&b.
