Reviews for Rydges Sydney Central
Melissa Barnett
We recently stayed at the ridges Central in Sydney. The entrance has both a ramp and stairs into the main foyer reception area. There is a large aquarium with fish in it in the floor of the aquarium. Which was something we have never seen before but quite interesting to walk on. The staff were very friendly reception. The only issue we had was we were not able to get the mini bar refilled with water. We ended up going to the 711 which is walking distance to buy additional bottles of water. The location is excellent and walking distance to both the 711, Woolworths Metro, the Sydney Central Railway station And the light rail. It is only two stops via train to the airport. Our room was excellent with a large bed, a small desk and a couch which gave us plenty of room to relax after attending a conference or being out seeing the sites of Sydney. The bathroom had a large walk-in shower and was well set out. There was no fan in the bathroom though which would have been useful. At the time we stayed the hotel had a program running if you didn’t get the room cleaned you could get a $10 credit towards food and drinks. At the time of checking out the reception staff we’re not aware how many days we have not had the room cleaned for. They do need a better system for tracking this. The hotel has a buffet breakfast option which you can purchase at reception for $25. The breakfast was incredible with a lot of choices and good value for money. The hotel has a gym which we did not use. It also has a pool, spa which we did use and was very good. There is a large step into the spa but it does have a rail on each side. There is also a sauna which we did not use. Accessibility into the pool area was difficult for someone with low vision and I require assistance to open the gate. We had room service for dinner several nights and this came from the Sydney brewery which is next door to the hotel. The food was excellent from the room service. The reception staff were happy to organise a taxi for us on the day we left. We found this hotel very accessible for my needs and a great location. I recommend this hotel for other people with no Vision or Blindness).

Stayed 1 mid week.night as it was close to St vincent's private hospital (7 mins) and value was fantastic as I got parking and breakfast for around 200. .My room 241 was spacious and clean.. Not sure about the frameless shower setup as you will make a mess without trying when you use the handheld shower head..Finally got decent pillows as it appears you get firmer and softer ones which was great. Mattress was super comfy. I Ran Aircon all night as i like the cold but really didnt feel that cold even on 20 so not sure about hot days. Breakfast options were fantastic and very tasty. You can even make you own fruit juices ( good selection with kale) which i havent seen before.. Didn't test transport and local amenities but all seems close based on other reviews. Staff were friendly..Parking is on site around corner from reception. Be careful when entering carpark as its a drop and turn with 2m height restriction bar and feels like a narrow entrance. I have small SUV so hats off to those drivers with large SUV and utes going into this carpark as i saw a few. Carpark bay at the front is great. Highly recommended and would definitely come again..

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We recently stayed at Rydges Sydney Central, and I just have to say—what an outstanding experience! A very special thank you to Bijay, the duty manager, whose kindness, care, and attention to detail truly made our stay memorable. He went above and beyond to ensure our family felt welcomed and comfortable, and we’re so grateful for his incredible customer service. Also, a big shoutout to all the amazing staff working behind the scenes—the housekeeping team, maintenance team and everyone who helps keep the rooms spotless and the hotel running smoothly. Your efforts do not go unnoticed! Thanks to this wonderful experience, we’ll definitely be staying at Rydges Sydney Central every time we visit Sydney. Highly recommend!

Stayed here for the Oasis concert. The location was convenient, being close to the train station, but the surrounding area felt quite rundown and not particularly pleasant to walk around in at night. The room itself was very basic and did not reflect the $485 rate (room only, Saturday night). It felt more like temporary contractor accommodation than a city hotel. The sink was cracked, the shower fittings were worn, tiles were broken, and there was visible dirt behind the sink and stains on the carpet. On a positive note, the bed was clean and very comfortable, which was the saving grace of the stay. Unfortunately, the overall standard and value for money were disappointing.

I booked this hotel for my husband and me to unwind, but upon checking in, we were surprised to find that we had to pay for parking, along with additional fees for leaving 15 minutes late. The kitchen minibar was overpriced, and the sauna was closed. To make matters worse, there were guests live streaming in the hot tub, which prevented us from using it. As I mentioned, the sauna was out of order, and overall, we did not enjoy our stay. We spent a significant amount of money on a hotel that is quite pricey. In contrast, we have previously stayed at other hotels where we only paid $15 for parking and enjoyed complimentary breakfast. The room itself was excellent, featuring a kitchen and a complimentary bottle of water, and we paid less than $180 for that stay. However, at Rydges Hotel, we ended up paying $180 for the room and an additional $62 for parking. I would not recommend this hotel at all.
