Jeanette,

Google search shows it was probably in Pitt Street - near Haymarket.

I don't know of one in/near the Domain

My early childhood recollection of the People's Palace was that it was hotel
for poor people run by the salvation Army. It was situated close to Central
Station.
The term "People's Palace" was used by my father as a threat for my not
applying myself to my studies - "Do you want to end up living in the
People's Palace?" (Another of his threats was "Broughton Hall" which I
believed to be an asylum)

This site will give you the street plan of Sydney showing the People's
Palace.

People's Palace was a name the Salvos gave to their cheap hotels in various
locations. The only ones I remember were the one in Pitt(?) St Sydney just
up the hill from Central railway and the one in Ann St Brisbane just east
of King George Square.

Both of these are no longer in existence AKAIK.

If you need further info the Salvos are the people to ask.

As a child we always stayed at the People's Palace in Pit St, Sydney when we came down to the 'big smoke'. It was a rather no frills, basic rooms with shared facilities. It was run by the Salvo's. It was closed down around 15-20 years ago (I think).

The Peoples Palace and Mac's Private were in the lower section of Pitt
Street. They were used a lot by country people because they were close to
central railway and were cheap. I do think one of them has been turned into
a cheap motel run by IBIS.

Yes it was a hotel run by Salvation Army.
I remember people coming from the country staying there in 1960's when going for treatment and
doctors appointments at Prince Alfred and Children's hospitals.
I think it was the cheapest (and safe) hotel accommodation just up from central railway.
