Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location is good, property itself is reasonable and gym is decent. Condition of the room isn't amazing - shoddy patch up work on the bathroom door, toilet seat falling off its hinges, some pink mould around the bath tiles.
A quick trip to Sydney for a medical appointment. I appreciated the beautifully comfortable bed, quiet room and the convenience of dinner and a drink onsite. Parking included with my stay made me very happy!
We arrived from the cruise port over 3 hrs ahead of 2pm check in but was told a room was ready and no extra charge.
The location was a 5 minute walk to all public transportation.
Buffet Breakfast was good but found the price high.
Our designated room was a bit of a letdown this time. The TV was not working and the room had not been cleaned properly, there was a bobby pin on the floor and some other debris along with the dust on the horizontal surfaces. We were moved to another room with no fuss, so the service was excellent.
Rooms are generous size with good facilities. Bathroom shower excellent! On site restaurant, Sydney brewery, I had the best pizza ever!
On the downside was the slow lifts.
The Rydges property was an enjoyable stay, but the room rate of $399 taxes (total $438) was not justified. All services and facilities were good, but did not justify the room rate. In future I will book another option. The surrounding neighborhood is less than desirable in that the streetscape was dirty, footpaths damaged and unsafe and too many undesireable people just haning around.
Lovely clean, spacious room with views of the city. Any easy 5minute walk to central station. Great buffet breakfast. One of our go to hotels when we are in Sydney for a few nights 😊
Overall a very pleasant one night stay which was ideal being close to Central Railway Station. Slightly disaponted that they accidently double charged me and had the withdrawal not came up on my phone, I'd have been none the wiser. Thankfully the duty manager rectified the mistake and money was refunded before i checked out.
Quiet for a CBD location. 50metre pool is five minutes away. Can walk from Central Station. Staff so kind and friendly. Room super large and comfortable. Fast wifi.
The room was a nice size with a large terrace. The room had tea/coffee-making facilities and a microwave. The buffet breakfast was enjoyable. The Sydney Brewery had reasonably priced drinks and good food.
Easy walking distance to attractions.
The location was 2 blocks from Central Station making it accessible to the whole city and beyond by bus, light rail and train. It was 11 minutes to the Airport by train and 10 minutes to the Sydney Opera Hall. Not $66 by Cab. We noticed many airline pilots/flight attendant crews coming and going.
