“The Sydney Junction Hotel balances a lively pub atmosphere with surprisingly comfortable accommodations. It's a family-friendly spot, complete with an undercover kids' playground in the beer garden, but maintains distinct areas for quieter dining. Renovations have kept the venue current, and the central Hamilton location is hard to beat.”
