Cheap Hotels in Kings Cross

The Kings Cross neighborhood in Sydney is one of the parts of town that is known for its lively nightlife scene and sometimes slightly “colorful” characters. The city\’s primary “red light” district is in this area, as is much of the city\’s gay scene. This neighborhood also boasts some great restaurants and shops, not to mention pretty historic homes. And there are also some cheap hotels in Kings Cross which you can stay in.

Because there are parts of this district which are known primarily for the nightlife, you should be careful that the cheap hotels in Kings Cross you are considering are not right next door to or upstairs from a dance club that will be booming its bass long into the night. Parts of this neighborhood are actually primarily residential, as well, so you may find yourself closer to where real people live than where young people come to party.

One of the attractions of the Kings Cross area is the lovely Fitzroy Gardens, the entrance to which is marked by a particularly interesting fountain. It is in the design of a sphere at the top of a tall pole, and is called the El Alamein Fountain. The area is also known for its historic homes, as it is one of Sydney\’s oldest neighborhoods. Some of the houses have been made into museums and are open for tours.
