5 Best Home Accessories Stores in Sydney (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Brad Smith
By Brad Smith, Home Services Expert · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 7 min read

A few nice things for the apartment, cushions, storage, maybe a new set of vases, should not require a wasted Saturday. Sydney's best-reviewed home accessories stores span a huge range, from a department store carrying over 7,000 Google reviews down to a boutique with under 250, and just one of them turns out to be a genuine homewares specialist rather than a department store selling homewares on the side.

Short answer: MUJI The Galeries is the closest thing to a genuine home accessories specialist on this list, with a 4.3 rating across 970 reviews and a real focus on storage, homewares and simple design. Myer (4.1, 7,351 reviews) and David Jones (4.1, 3,754 reviews) are large department stores that carry homewares among a lot else. Sunlite Mitre 10 and Tresors are a hardware store and a jewellery and antiques shop, worth knowing before you go looking specifically for home accessories.

5 Best Home Accessories Stores in Sydney (2026)

Our top picks, reviewed

Myer Sydney City logo
#1 Overall🕑 Open 7 days

Myer Sydney City

4.17,351 Google reviews

Myer Sydney City is a multi-level department store carrying homewares alongside clothing, beauty and toys. Google lists it under homewares, but it's a general department store where home accessories are one section among many, not the main focus.

What people praise

  • Regular shoppers describe attentive, unhurried staff across departments including cookware and bedding
  • The homewares range specifically gets called out as extensive, covering everything from kitchenware to linens

Worth knowing

  • Reviews are mixed overall, with several customers describing inattentive service at individual counters, worth factoring in given the store's size

Our take: Its 4.1 rating and huge 7,351-review base reflect a big, dependable but uneven experience. A reasonable stop if you're combining a home accessories browse with other shopping.

#2🕑 Open 7 days

David Jones - Elizabeth Street

4.13,754 Google reviews

David Jones on Elizabeth Street is a department store carrying homewares, cosmetics and clothing at a somewhat higher price point than Myer. Like Myer, Google files it under homewares, though it's a full department store rather than a dedicated home accessories retailer.

What people praise

  • Individual staff members praised by name for going out of their way, including sourcing an in-stock box for a purchased item and arranging gift wrapping
  • The jewellery and gift-wrapping counters specifically get positive mentions

Worth knowing

  • Multiple reviewers describe long waits and inattentive service at busy counters, and one described a fragile item shipped without any protective packaging

Our take: A 4.1 rating across 3,754 reviews puts it in similar territory to Myer: broad range, inconsistent service depending on department and time of day.

MUJI The Galeries logo
#3🕑 Open 7 days

MUJI The Galeries

4.3970 Google reviews

MUJI The Galeries is a Japanese homewares and lifestyle brand selling storage boxes, kitchen organisers, bedding and simple furniture alongside clothing, all built around natural materials like timber, bamboo and linen with no visible branding on most products.

What people praise

  • Praised for a genuinely broad and well-organised storage and organising range, in materials from clear plastic through to timber and cardboard
  • Product quality described as consistently good for the price, especially compared with larger big-box brands
  • Reviewers highlight the pen and stationery section specifically as excellent value

Worth knowing

  • More than one reviewer described being overcharged at checkout relative to shelf pricing, worth double-checking your receipt against the ticketed price on sale items

Sunlite Mitre 10 - York St logo

Sunlite Mitre 10 - York St

4.6295 Google reviews

Sunlite Mitre 10 on York Street is a hardware and home improvement store selling tools, paint and key-cutting services. It's genuinely useful for home maintenance, but it isn't a home accessories or decor retailer in the way this list otherwise covers.

What people praise

  • Staff repeatedly praised for fast, friendly service on quick jobs like key cutting
  • Membership discount program mentioned positively by multiple reviewers

Worth knowing

  • One reviewer described being sold an item that didn't suit their actual need and then couldn't return it once opened, worth confirming exactly what you need before buying

Our take: A strong 4.6 across 295 reviews for what it actually is: a genuinely well-run hardware store. Worth flagging clearly that it's not the place for cushions or vases, more for tools, paint and practical home fixes.

Tresors

4.2247 Google reviews

Tresors, inside the Strand Arcade, is an antique and gemstone jewellery boutique selling vintage rings, cameos, brooches and collectables, with some antique homewares among its broader stock. It's much closer to a jewellery shop than a home accessories store.

What people praise

  • Staff, especially Jennifer, praised for deep product knowledge and a relaxed, unpushy approach to browsing
  • Reviewers describe a genuinely unique, hard-to-find selection compared with mainstream jewellery chains

Worth knowing

  • A number of lower ratings appear in its review history without matched written detail in what we could review, worth reading recent reviews directly before visiting

Our take: A 4.2 rating across 247 reviews for what's primarily an antique jewellery shop. If you want a genuinely one-off vintage decor piece it's worth a look, but don't expect a general home accessories range.

How we score these businesses

Rating is each business’s live Google average out of five. Review volume shows how many customers actually left feedback, and a bigger number gives a steadier signal than a handful of five-star reviews. Confidence blends rating and volume together. Recency checks how current the feedback is. No business can pay to change these numbers or its position on this list.

How much do home accessories cost in Sydney?

None of the businesses on this list publish a single price list that fits a whole category as broad as home accessories, and cost varies enormously by material and brand, from a five-dollar candle to a designer vase running into hundreds. MUJI and the department stores are broadly mid-range for everyday homewares; Tresors sits at a premium price point for antique and one-off pieces.

Home accessories shopping across Sydney

Every option on this list is within the CBD, from George Street and the Galeries precinct through to York Street and the Strand Arcade. That makes it realistic to combine two or three stops on one walk, starting from Circular Quay, Town Hall or Wynyard.

What to ask before buying home accessories

  • Is the shelf or sale price the same as what’s charged at the register?
  • What’s the return policy on opened or used items?
  • For antique or vintage pieces, is there any documentation of age or provenance?
  • Does the store offer gift wrapping or delivery for larger homewares purchases?
  • Are staff able to advise on materials and care instructions, not just price?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which gets it a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these five businesses?

We compared Sydney businesses Google categorises under homewares or home accessories and ranked them on rating, review volume, and how current the feedback is. Where a listed business turned out to be a hardware store or a jewellery shop rather than a home accessories retailer, we’ve said so directly.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects Google data verified in July 2026. We recheck rankings periodically as ratings and review counts shift.

Where’s the best genuine home accessories shop on this list?

MUJI The Galeries is the clearest specialist here, with a real focus on storage, organisation and simple homewares rather than being one department inside a much bigger store.

Should I check receipts against shelf pricing?

It’s a fair habit generally, and a couple of reviewers on this list specifically reported checkout prices that didn’t match what was ticketed on the shelf.

The bottom line

For genuine home accessories rather than a department-store detour, MUJI The Galeries is the safe default. Want a big one-stop browse across homewares, fashion and beauty in one trip? Myer or David Jones will cover it, just double-check your receipt at the register.
