2025 Parramatta Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 It was already three in the morning when we returned to the hotel after watching the Sydney New Year's Eve fireworks show. After the room was assigned, we went upstairs to the guest room, unpacked our luggage and prepared to wash up. We found that there was a leak above the bathroom sink. After notifying the tour leader and housekeeping, they immediately helped us change to another room. The original leaking room had two single beds but no bathtub. The new room has a bathtub and two double beds, so the area and space are larger. After a lot of trouble, I took a shower and packed my luggage. It was already past four in the morning. We will stay in this hotel for four consecutive nights. Although the breakfast here is not much, it is all the food I like. There is a park opposite the hotel. There is a river and a trail next to the hotel, which is very suitable for walking and resting. There are also supermarkets and shops nearby. There is also a shopping mall about ten minutes away from the hotel. Overall, the environment is not bad. 20241231-20250104

#2月好地方2025 Parramatta is an extremely important city in the hearts of Sydneysiders. As the economic lifeline of the Greater Western Sydney area and the second CBD, it is attracting more and more people to settle in. Parramatta was first established by the British in 1788 and is the second oldest district in Australia. In January 1788, the First Fleet of British colonists entered Sydney Bay and established a large farm here. Today, Parramatta has a profound cultural heritage and is a diverse city that combines tradition and innovation. Run through by the Parramatta River, attractions include Parramatta St John's Church, Parramatta Park and other historical and cultural heritage Parramatta Square, adjacent to Parramatta Town Hall.

#2月好地方2025 Prince Alfred Square has quite a history; it was the site of Australia's first prison in 1797, which was later burned down by prisoners and replaced by a two-storey stone building and the first women's factory. Established in memory of Prince Alfred, the first British monarch to visit Australia in 1867, this palatial park was originally a slum in the Sixties. Today, Prince Alfred Park is a public recreational space bounded by Church Street, Market Street, Victoria Road and Marist Square. As the green space was vacated, its history of crime and punishment quickly faded from people's memory, and the space entered a new phase and became the green park it is today.

#2月好地方2025 Parramatta Town Hall and Library exudes historic charm amidst modern skyscrapers. The surrounding lively streets offer a diverse array of dining, shopping and cultural experiences, making it a vibrant destination. The Town Hall was built in 1880, a beautiful old building with a very lush interior and is very well maintained. There is some amazing atmosphere and history in this building. The connected library is definitely a five-star modern library in Sydney! The train station and bus terminal are just a short walk away. From the ground floor to the 1st floor to the 2nd floor, there is ample seating area. Beautifully designed with plenty of private study and reading areas. It is meticulously designed and has won many design awards. With good lighting, it is suitable for everyone who needs a room to concentrate on work, study or enjoy reading.

#2月好地方2025 Hotels in Australia are classified into economy, business, leisure and resort categories. Holiday Inn Parramatta is a high-end business hotel. It is located 10 minutes’ walk from Parramatta Station, which is home to many first-class shopping malls and the largest Westfield shopping mall in the province. Although the hotel is a bit old and has been renovated, the walls are well maintained. The rooms are not big but the windows are big and the view is open. The studio has a sofa bed and a tea maker. The simple decoration is beautiful, and the sofa bed makes the room feel practical. The mattress is soft and the pillows are flat. The best thing is the Jacuzzi in the bathroom, which is very relaxing. The area around the hotel is quiet yet bustling. It only takes 10 minutes to walk to large shopping malls or the subway. There are many Asian restaurants along the way for everyone to choose from. There is a swimming pool and a gym, the staff are eye-catching, polite and smiling. If the room price is around 1,000 yuan, the CP value is high. There are not many breakfast options but it's okay. If you are a hotel loyalty member, you can get it for free. You don't need to pay 30 Australian dollars for additional purchase.

The food is consistently amazing, with seasonal changes adding excitement to the menu. The maple French toast is a standout, boasting perfect flavors, while other dishes impress with their depth of taste. Don't miss the delicious frittata! The café's décor exudes charm, reminiscent of an old barbershop, adding to its unique appeal. Parking can be a challenge, but opting for Westfield parking and a short walk or taking the train is hassle-free. Easily the best brunch spot in Parramatta, though the popularity sometimes works against it. #australiatrip#deliciousfood #australiatrip
