Where to Stay in Sydney

The cheapest and closest place to stay while visiting the ATNF Sydney headquarters is the on-site Lodge. The on-site Lodge consists of six single bedrooms and two double rooms, each with their own bathroom. There is also a communal lounge and laundry. Visitors can cook their own meals in the communal kitchen area. Alternatively, the nearby El Rancho hotel (corner of Epping and Herring roads) offers a `bistro', where an evening meal costs $10 - $20. The Eastwood Rugby Club, across Vimiera Road from the CTIP laboratory has a restaurant open Tuesday to Saturday, 12-2pm and 6-9pm.

Information and prices can be found, and other practical details (maps, restaurants, banks, shops and cinemas) pertinent to a visit to Marsfield can be found on the Sydney Headquarter Visitors page. It also includes information about other accommodation options.
