Marrickville has become one of Sydney's favourite places to eat, drink and see a show, with a brewery trail, Vietnamese and Greek restaurants, the Factory Theatre, Henson Park and the Sunday Addison Road markets. It has very little visitor accommodation. Marco Polo Motor Inn Sydney in Summer Hill is about 3 kilometres away, a 10-minute drive or short bus ride, with motel rooms from $140, one free secured undercover parking spot with every booking and reception open 24 hours.
Getting to Marrickville from the hotel
Marrickville's main strip on Marrickville Road and Illawarra Road is about 3 kilometres from the hotel, around 10 minutes by car or taxi. Buses along Parramatta Road and through Lewisham and Petersham connect the two suburbs, and the bike ride along the GreenWay is flat and pleasant. For the city, trains from Summer Hill reach Central in about 15 minutes.
Street parking in Marrickville is tight on weekends. Leave the car here free and take a taxi or bus to the breweries.
Things to do in Marrickville
Marrickville's industrial back streets hold a dozen craft breweries and distilleries within walking distance of each other, which makes for an easy afternoon trail. The Factory Theatre on Victoria Road hosts comedy, music and the Sydney Comedy Festival; Henson Park is home of the Newtown Jets rugby league and AFL games with a famous hill; Addison Road Community Centre runs its Sunday market; and Marrickville Metro covers shopping. The food is the real draw: pho, banh mi, Greek, Portuguese and some of Sydney's best bakeries.
