About the Place

The Maisonette is a charming circa. 1929 property located in the village-like urban neighbourhood of Potts Point. Potts Point has earned the reputation of being one of Sydney's best places to live. Located on the edge of Sydney Harbour, you will love the vast choice of quality local cafes, restaurants, and bars. You don't have to go far to find the best coffee, the best meal or the coolest bar. You will also find a special something to take home with a choice of several individual boutiques and vintage stores. Saturday is local market day, where you will find exciting and delicious foods and products. Our property has three room types which are accessible via a central staircase. There is no elevator at the property. For couples and friends, we offer a choice of King and Twin bedded rooms with a private ensuite. For the solo traveller, we have the option of a room with a single bed and shared bathroom. Rooms are serviced weekly. Our property suits the independent traveller, and while we operate a front desk service during the day, these hours are limited. Please check with our team the operating hours for the day of your arrival. Don't worry if you arrive when the office is unattended. We will organise to leave the key for you in the lock box at the front door. Our team are available via telephone should you need anything after hours. Locals love living here, and we are sure you will too! The stunning Sydney Royal Botanical Gardens is a short 10-minute walk away. Stroll through these beautiful gardens to the Opera House and Sydney Harbour foreshore. Take a ferry to Manly for the day, explore The Rocks, Darling Harbour, or shop until you drop at our central shopping area. Sydney's famous beaches are also easily accessible via our excellent public transport network. Our property welcomed its first guest in 1929. During this era, the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge was well underway, and Sydney blossomed into an international destination for foreign travellers. Our cozy rooms have been styled to draw on elements reminiscent of this era. Locally owned and operated, we offer an affordable accommodation approach, ideal for experienced travellers who do not require 24-hour onsite attention. Our friendly team is always available to chat via telephone or messaging apps when we are not at the front desk.

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.

When booking with misterb&b, you help support organizations fighting for LGBTQ+ rights around the world.

Supporting the community is not just about survival, it's also about thriving, empowering and making a difference.
