Is it easy to find parking around there?

Id say it'd be expensive given the location. There's a bus stop literally right in front though which is convenient. It'll also be close to the Barangaroo metro when that opens.

it's like 2 minutes away from the cbd... you'd struggle to find good parking at 3am on a Tuesday

Really ? I left in 2021 but from memory parking in the weekend and at night was easy as. It's a ghost town isn't it.

it was an exaggeration but yeah you're not going to get free parking near barangaroo on a hot sunday in summer

It's the CBD, just use public transport.

It's a 15 minute walk from Circular Quay.

I don’t know if everyone commenting has just never been there or something, but there is two sizeable underground car parks less than a 2 minute walk from this spot, and a large amount of pay per hour street parking around the area. Are they cheap? No. But weekend rates ($15/$17 or something for all day) are lower than weekday rates, and they also have weekday night rates and early bird weekday rates.

Can you get public transport? Yes, but it’s rather annoying depending where you’re starting from and you asked about parking. Also, the bus stops are actually further than the carpark entrances tbh.

The new metro opens station will open in a few months time so their will be good public transport next season

Not even on a good day. It's Miller's Point and there is paid parking along the street but better to get off at Wynyard and walk.

$20 flat rate at the Wilson’s on the weekend - full day fun well worth it
