Short time hotel rooms: pay by the hour types

[aussiegaigin]

Just bumping this thread again to see whether anyone had any recent experience with hotels/cubes/apartments for 1-2 hours in the CBD without using DayUse or am I dreaming?

Is Rydges World Square still an option?

Contact them and ask.

Day Use is not really "pay by the hour".

You get and pay for a block of time (4-9 hours), regardless of how long you are there.

Groupon sometimes has good priced deals on hotels.

Contact them and ask.

Fair enough - they said, online AUD 170, walk-up AUD 150 for max 6 hours.

If you have 4 or 5 people who has a regular fwb then you can join up to sign a city rental apartment and share it

I used the Intercontinental Double Bay recently. I do know some of the staff there including one of the front of house assistant managers. The were happy to give me a room for the day for $150. I think you would need to go and ask them at reception though.

I used a hotel by hour in cbd (before covid) to fuck a thai chick from dating app. Looked dodgy and cheap and not sure if can have a good impression on the girl.

Later switched to dayuse. Much cheaper and better.

For example, in ibis darling harbour last time got for 95 dollars for daytime use . Thats way cheaper than paying by hour.

Do you have any experience which ones would offer 1-2 hours rooms upon walk-up?

Don't know about 1-2 hours rooms but having a few hours in a clean room is better and not rushed than those 1 hour love hotel rooms. Probably cheaper in the long run for more hours than just one hour.

I took a chic to the hourly place in Pitt St a few years ago. Paid the money and went to the room. As soon as she saw it, she freaked out and ran down the stairs, out the door and I never saw her again.

Fortunately, reception was understanding (maybe it wasn't the first time?) and gave me my money back. They did offer the option of getting a girl from next door. It was around $100 for the 2 hours (minimum), so DayUse (which I didn't know about at the time) can be a much better deal and outcome.

Used a few day rate hotels. Day use site is good because it usually offers longer hours than going direct but I generally just email the hotel direct and negotiate a deal.
Only problem is they usually need a few days notice so they can ensure a room will be available.
