Reviews for Rydges Sydney Central
Henny
I really enjoyed my stay at Rydges Surry Hills. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was amazing, with heaps of choices—delicious food and great quality. The location is excellent, and the bed was super comfortable. The room was also more spacious than average. The rate was a little higher than usual due to the school holidays and Easter break. There was a bit of a wait for the lift—but hey, I’m on holiday, so I didn’t mind at all. Highly recommend!

Recently, my wife and i stayed at the Rydges hotel Albion street as we needed a place to sleep while we sorted out renovations with our house and we were met with nothing but the finest service, especially from a very professional and experienced receptionist, hanok. Hanok was warm and enthusiastic with us, he was confident, humorous and showed that he genuinely cared. He helped us have a very pleasant stay, catering to our needs with excellent diligent service and elite hospitality. Please congratulate hanok on this achievement, we will certainly be back and were thoroughly impressed by him. Can’t praise him enough!

I had a great experience with the reception desk team. From the moment I arrived, they were welcoming, professional, and efficient. They answered all my questions with a smile and made the check-in process smooth and hassle-free. It's clear they care about providing excellent customer service, and it really set a positive tone for my visit. Highly recommend.

4.5 stars. Arrived very early from an early flight. Great location, only a short walk from Central station. They were happy to hold our bags and they requested our room be serviced as quickly as possible. We went out and arrived back at the hotel a couple of hours before the advertised check in time and our room was ready. The room itself was perfect for our short stay. We did request 2 x single beds, but upon arrival the bed configuration was 1 x king bed. A call to reception and this was rectified without fuss. Beds were very comfortable. Room also contained a couch, bar fridge and desk/desk chair. Room temp could be controlled easily and the blackout blinds kept out the early morning light. No issues at all with noise from either inside or outside the hotel. The bathroom was adequate and the shower head was large with great water pressure and hot water. One area for improvement might be that the TV had limited channels. After a bit of mucking around with connection, chrome cast was able to be used to view content from my phone on the TV. I read a few complaints about people having to wait a long time for the lifts. We came and went multiple times throughout our stay and I would say that the longest wait time we had was 60 seconds. Perfectly fine in my book. The pool area was great. It included a good size pool, spa and sauna. Our room rate included a buffet breakfast in the adjoining restaurant. Standard hotel buffet breakfast. Quite expensive if paying full price. The bacon was probably the only thing to complain about in my opinion. Very soft and sitting in a congealed fatty liquid made it unappealing. Plenty of other options however. Great range of fresh fruit was also available to make your own juice. Overall, the room was not cheap, but no hotels in Sydney really are. The location, facilities and included breakfast made it a good value for money stay. The service was actually impeccable. The reception desk was always well staffed and all staff we encountered were very friendly, helpful and competent. I would have absolutely no hesitation staying here again next time I’m in Sydney.

I booked the room last week with my wife for our first anniversary. It was such a wonderful time together. Services were top notch especially the receptionist named Ashish was super-friendly, guided us and we enjoy the moment. We will be returning back soon to get the same hospitality, thank you Rydges family for the best service.
