An airport option to compare for your trip to Sydney. Use the operator’s passenger information for ground transport and current arrival guidance; transfer times depend on the route and traffic.
The airport has train connections to the city from its domestic and international terminals. The city connection is only part of the journey: check the onward route to the tournament venue and current fares.
The Irish Open venue is in Bossley Park, with customer parking and airport taxi or rideshare options. Check the full journey to Club Marconi when comparing it with a central Sydney stay.
The Irish Open accommodation guide lists these two hotels for Poker Palace visitors. Both require onward transport to Club Marconi; compare current room terms directly.
