Had a comfortable stay! Location being convenient is the top quality + bed was super comfortable. Good for all types of travellers. Saw a lot of air stewardess staying at the hotel, maybe because of the convenience — very close to train stations and just a short train ride from airport. Very near a number of restaurants and shops and supermarkets too. Concierge service was good too - very kind and helpful. Has luggage storage service if you arrive early or wants to go out after check out. Downside was the room was a little far from the lift - quite a few turns along the corridor to get to the room, was an interesting layout.

I've stayed in this hotel multiple times and mostly for stays of at least a week or more. While it's not the best , pillow is too thick and bed too soft , it was convenient. I'm therefore extremely disappointed by the hotel during this stay where I'm booked for 20 days. We checked in since Sunday. On Tuesday, there was a total power failure in the early morning and we were initially told it's only two hours. And then four hours, and six hours, eventually we were told at 10 pm that power cannot be restore until the next day. Effectively at that point, we had more than 12 hours without power and had to relocate to a different hotel at 10pm at night. Hotel promised to relocate us at no cost since it's 10pm , and in addition, to compensate us by refunding one night of the stay. My wife had to walk up 10th floor and down 10 floors to quickly pack a overnight bag in the dark. The next day, we return to the hotel, and was able to return to our room. At 10pm the next day, we noticed the lights going off by itself, and when we contacted the receptionist, we were told that we were supposed to have been reassigned a different room. There were no information given to before that, nothing slipped under the door, no calls, nothing !! and again, we were expected to quickly pack our stuffs, and move rooms again at way past 10 pm. The front desk offered to send a staff to help us with moving, we started packing immediately and the staff came promptly, while we are still packing. When we said we are still packing, wet clothes in the toilet, etc. He promptly offered to give us the key to the new room, and bring our keys back down. Very disappointing when his job was to help us move to the other room, and I told him we were still packing as we have lots of stuffs. The following morning, when my wife went to ask about the refund of a night stay as promised, she was told by the front desk that it was a "either or", that we either get a refund of 1 night or free relocation to another hotel. This was clearly different from what was communicated to us previously the night before, suffering through 12 hours in the room without power and having to walk to 10 floor up and down each time. So there was no compensation for all the trouble they made us go through in spite of what was previously promised. Most definitely not my best experience in Sydney.

Stayed here for around a week. I’ll start with the positives; the location is pretty unbeatable. In the heart of World square, endless restaurants below and around the square. The bar on site is nice and cosy with decent prices. The negatives; the hotel is quite dingy and dated. The air con is loud. We found it can be quite hard to get housekeeping done on a couple of occasions despite leaving the room for a number of hours. (But the cleaners are helpful and friendly - perhaps overworked) I think the price isn’t good value for money compared to other hotels in the area for this price bracket. Upon check out, the hotel manager made a bizarre claim that we did not pay for our accommodation. (Because they took the payment in cash) I don’t have a problem with the mistake but it’s been over a week and still haven’t received any kind of apology for their accusation. Another downside is, as Expedia gold members and Rydges Hotel being part of the VIP rewards scheme - When available (which there was availability) there’s supposed to be a free room upgrade. But this wasn’t offered once. I did ask after day three but the request was denied. I’ve never heard of this before. Also our bookings come with 2 x free drinks, (for each daily reservation) We did get the drinks but it’s just a shame that we had to keep asking, it just feels awkward.

Decent budget friendly hotel, more like a 3 star, slightly better than a Best Western hotel. I think it's categorized as 4 star due to there being a restaurant/bar attached. The reception area is nice and clean, and the man that checked us in was very quick and friendly, plus he upgraded our room to a balcony at no additional cost. It's definitely worth asking if they have a better room available. We found the bed to be soft and comfortable. The bathroom was crammed and not that nice. The corner shower is a poor design with water getting outside on the floor. The bathtub I wouldn't touch. There were little flies somehow in the bathroom as well which was not nice. The espresso machine was good, but they didn't clean our cup that was used- they put it back like it was cleaned but it wasn't. The carpet in the room seems old, similar to the hallways. Having an empty fridge was nice to have. Overall we got a good price for the 3 night stay however I would pick a different hotel next time since I would prefer a room that's newer or renovated, and there's a lot of options in the city to find that at a similar price.

Stayed here for what was meant to be two nights, ended up being only one after the power outage. The room was slightly dated, street noise was very clearly coming through from the window, bathroom had black mould or stains on the floor from where the bathmat/towel is usually placed - gross either way. The TV has maybe 10 channels, movies that you had to pay for (seriously, wtf) with a smart TV, but no option to use your phone to stream (it's 2025). The power outage was obviously not the fault of the hotel, however the response was, to say the least, abysmal. The power went out in the morning, and like most guests I was out for the entire day, to come back to a situation where nobody thought to grab a loudspeaker or just have the very bored and useless bloke at the door let people know what is happening. No emails, no phone calls just people milling about and walking up stairs with torches or their phone to grab their luggage. The excuse given was that they had no power so how could they email, whilst looking at me from in front of a laptop and mobile phone. STILL, 2 days later, I haven't received an email apologising, informing me about a refund, thanking me for the stay or anything else. When I asked if there will be some type of compensation for the obvious inconvenience, the poor lass at the desk said "she'll make a note" - should this just not be something to consider for all impacted guests? The manager was extremely rude and short when I was asking basic questions about what is actually going on, as if in disbelief that I would dare to find out, ya know, where I will put my head on a pillow that evening. Poor, poor service and response and whilst the power going out was not their fault, they did not do what was in their power to make the lives of their guests any easier or pleasant.
