hi thanks for all the valuable input. Very helpful. Just want to know whether the cabbies charge extra for the Luggage.

Sorry Paul B.. most of your info is wrong (the map is correct).
Tax will cost from $25 - $35 during the day, depending on traffic. Very early morning (before 6am) or late at night (after 8pm) expect to pay about $25. There is also a $2 airport fee that is added to all cab tariffs departing from the airport.
Museum station is the closest station, its approx 10 mins walk (allowing for the fact you may have baggage). You need to go to the Liverpool St exit (Hyde Park).
Train fares are approx $10 oneway from the airport to the city circle (Redfern, Central, Town Hall, Wynyard, Circular Quay, Museum, St James, Kings Cross & Martin Place).
The Travelodge has just become a part of the Toga group & is now a member of the Velocity travel program (Virgin group).
If you are travelling alone, I recommend you use the train but if there are more than 2 people it will be cheaper to use a taxi or hotel shuttle service.
Also look at buying a TRAVELPASS weekly or monthly for local government transport (buses, trains & ferries).. forget the tourist express buses.. they are a waste of money & very expensive.
Hope you enjoy your trip to Sydney :-)))

Some great tips here - you won't get lost :)
It's very simple - depending on traffic conditions between $25 - $35 with a $5 tip. Even though Sydney Airport says $25 -30. The hotel location is well known and these streets should be very well known by all cab drivers.
There's some more info and links here on taxis:http://www.sydneyairport.com.au/SACL/To+and+From+Airport/Taxis/Default.htm
For your curiosity the location can be found here at http://www.whereis.com.au and printed out on a map which you can take with you, to show the cab driver !!
I noticed that you are staying at the Travelodge and thought that you might like to be aware of the rates available through this directory and compare what's on offer:http://www.cheaperthanhotels.com.au/Australia/Sydney/City/
The last minute rates often have free inclusions.
I was curious to see if you got a good deal or not.
Have a great time is Sydney.

Curl up on sun-drenched beaches, dine at award-winning restaurants and much more is what you would get in your visit to Sydney. Discover more with hotelbye . One of the world's good celebrities and a certainly must see in Sydney may be the Sydney Opera House, a place is really a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the star attraction on the glittering harbour. That elegant building, designed like shells or billowing sails, perches on a hand of land surrounded by water. Sydney is just a distinctive place to invest your vacation so, do not eliminate the ability to go to a good city.

Just another point I dont think anyone else made - if you do decide to take the train, be aware that museum station closes its gates to the exit you need at about 8pm and also that the fastest way up to the exit is by taking the escelators which may be diffucult with luggage. There is another exit across the road which will be easier but it means lagging your luggage up some stairs. Might just be easier to take a taxi from central and get them to drop you right at the door of the Travellodge - I expect that would cost about $5 to $10.

Found it.
Check out http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=Qantas+Dr,+NSW+2020,+Australia&daddr=George+St,+Sydney+NSW+2000,+Australia&layer=&ie=UTF8&sll=-33.931966,151.188397&sspn=0.015275,0.029182&z=12&om=1
It's around 18km, 24 mins by taxi would cost around 30 to 40 dollars depending on the time of day.
Another option would be to get the train from sydney airport to central station, then central station to town hall. That'll cost you about 10 bucks.

"depending on traffic conditions between $25 - $35 with a $5 tip."
A $5 tip? You are joking. You don't need to tip taxi drivers in Australia and they don't expect it. You can if you want to but don't bring nasty American habits over here , thanks. You can sit in a taxi and wait for change and you will get it without a murmur.

It would be cheaper for you to catch a CityRail train from the airport to the Museum station and walk from there - it's only a few hundred metres. Check out the website www.cityrail.nsw.gov.au for more information.
