Consistently excellent service”
I have stayed at Sage Wollongong a few times now over a number of years and I'm pleased to say that it has always been a terrific experience. The rooms are comfortable and quiet, the staff are friendly and have been quick to resolve any issues I've had. The location is within walking distance of key venues in the CBD while being far enough away from street noise as people make their way home after a big night out.

Lovely hotel - a little gem in Wollongong!”
We were visiting family in Wollongong and needed a hotel so picked the Chifley which we knew was newly built. Whilst not as central as the Novotel we were really pleased with the hotel - it was spotlessly clean and had great service. The breakfast and room service were good, very high standard of food and prompt service.
Very good”
I would still stay in Sage Hotel Wollongong if I were to re-visit Wollongong in the future. It is located walking distance to the North Beach and the eatery places are also 5-10 minutes walk away. Overall it was a comfortable stay.
Quiet location close to town.”
Had an issue with lift noise the first night so we were moved to another room and given a complimentary breakfast. Had an executive balcony room which was large and the bathroom was huge. The bath was extra long and deep. Comfortable beds. You can easily walk to restaurants, the lighthouses and Nth Wollongong. Give the free bus a swerve though. Not worth the effort.
Great location, modern hotel”
As we were only had to drive a couple of hours to the hotel, we rang and requested an earlier check-in than 14:00 hours, as we were attending a function elsewhere in the city at 14:00 hours. Our request was received warmly and whilst not guaranteed, we were advised that every effort would be made to accommodate our request to check-in at approx. 13:00 hours. Arriving before the regular check-in time, we were told our room was available and we were able use our room and freshen up before proceeding to our function. The room was comfortable and clean and was satisfactory for our two night stay in the Wollongong area.
Clean & modern hotel”
This is my second time staying at Chifley Wollongong. Both times were with my husband and adult relatives. Room is clean, amenities are available. The room can be occupied by up to 4 people. Main bed is big & firm (I like firm bed). There're 2 sofa bed, one is a double bed & the other one is single bed. Both sofa beds are - as expected - not comfortable to be slept on, however when they're converted into sofa, they're really comfortable. There's a swimming pool at the hotel, looks nice but I didn't have a go.
Exceptional”
great place to stay in Wollongong and will choose to stay again . One thing i will say is I wish the cafe had have been open while i was there.. I booked in Friday arvo and checked out sunday and not once was that cafe open that i notice .........
Good clean modern rooms”
room were modern and clean. hotel was close to alot of wollongong main attractions. walking distance to the beach, the entertainment centre, win stadium and city centre. one feature that i did not like was that you were expected to pay for the use of the hotels car park other wise everything was ok.
Outstanding ”
Another outstanding stay at Sage. Exceptional customer service provided by staff again especially Lauren & Kimberly at reception. These two young ladies are certainly a huge asset to the Hotel. Also shout out to Linda in Housekeeping. Lovely lady who takes pride in her job! Bedding very comfortable and rooms clean. Some minor maintenance issues which have been raised with the hotel directly but certainly does not change my opinion of the Hotel. Definitely value for money. Would I return and recommend and this is a definite Yes.
Nice stay”
Thank you so much Sage Hotel for a nice stay. We had the best room with the best view. Staff are friendly and thank you for your surprise red wine, perfect for us, celebrated my husband's birthday with style🥂😘 The lift become busy at times but overall was fine.
Location ”
It was very pleasant, fantastic views!! Best spot in Wollongong for views. Lovely big clean room. Could do with another lift... Enjoyed our stay very much
good stay”
stayed for 1 night. facilities are new and adequate. 20 mins walk from Wollongong station. not many restaurants around the area so bit of a downside but not hotel's fault. close to beach which was convenient.
Great stay!”
Room was spacious and clean. Receptionists were very friendly and helpful. We actually left a bag at the waiting area and they kept it for us! Thanks so much for the wonderful experience at Sage Hotel :)
Mini Holiday ”
Sage is a good place to stay. Staff are friendly and rooms are clean and spacious. The bed was very comfy. Easy parking. The hotel is situated close to Shopping Mall. The beach is nearby with a great walking track.
Convenient Location. Nice hotel.”
The Sage was booked as a last minute thing for us so we didn't know what to expect but it was a very nice hotel. Staff were friendly. The pool was very nice with towels provided and nice individual lounges with shade provided. It is only a short walk up to the main mall and restaurants, bars etc. I didn't walk to the beach but I did note that it was close by. During our stay one lift was out of action which meant getting to your room was a bit slow, but I assume that has now been fixed.
Central and convenient”
Great location and central to what and where we had to go while in Wollongong.
Great location ”
Stayed here one night for a concert at McCabe Park, everything was within 10 minutes walking distance of Sage. Booked a balcony room which had nice views of the beach. Rooms are basic but clean & tidy. Breakfast Buffett was yum & the staff were more than happy to help with dietary requests. Thanks!
Good”
During our 5 night stay in an executive suite my wife and I were subjected to the following: 1. Bathroom smelt of urine upon arrival. 2. Carpet had not been vacuumed upon arrival. 3. Housekeeping did not empty our bins. 4. Housekeeping did not restock our room with clean drinking glasses. 5. Housekeeping did not restock our room with clean coffee cups. 6. Housekeeping did not restock our room with coffee/sugar. 7. Housekeeping did not restock our room with toilet paper. 8. Our room was serviced after 3pm on one particular day and after 3.30pm on another day. This mean't that you could not come back to your room in the afternoon after being out all day and simply relax as you weren't sure when housekeeping were going to arrive to service your room. You would think it would already be done by 3-3.30pm in the afternoon but it wasn't. 9. Definitely would NOT stay at the Sage again and couldn't possibly recommend it to family and friends.
Great Boutique Hotel in Excellent Location...”
We were very happily surprised with this hotel. Nicely styled and in an excellent location (short pathway walk to the beautiful beach). The staff and service was really good and it's also just a couple of minutes away from numerous restaurants. Jasmine Rice Thai restaurant is just around the corner and is excellent quality, I'm from Newtown and so know Thai food really well! Overall I'd happily recommend this cool boutique hotel... and request a room on a high floor as you can get some awesome views too!

Right Next to Win Stadium”
The hotel is right next to Win Stadium. So I'm guessing it could be a little hectic when there is a footy game in there. We were there 2 days before a footy game scheduled and it was very quiet. It's pretty close to the beach and the city centre. A good alternative if you are travelling around the South Coast.
