Rydges Cronulla Beachside is a four-star hotel overlooking one of Sydney’s best beaches. It also contains within its sizeable walls a number of high-quality function and conference venues. Is there much more one needs to know than that? Probably not. Rydges Cronulla Beachside has a dedicated conference level, containing five rooms accommodating up to 200 guests. The Sutherland Room and Red Radish both sport floor-to-ceiling glass windows/walls, and are well suited to larger conferences and weddings. They also open up to a charming terrace, well suited to canapes or pre-dinner drinks.

Rydges Cronulla Beachside also boasts a number of smaller meeting rooms. That array of function venues comes with a delightful bonus - they’re located within a four-star hotel. Guests, out-of-town family members, and clients are able to stay in any of Rydge’s spacious accommodations, many of which boast panoramic views of the beautiful bay beneath. Rydges Cronulla Beachside is found at the end of Kingsway, where it meets Elouera Road (and the beach). The hotel is mere minutes from Cronulla train station and is located about forty minutes drive away from the Sydney CBD. It's the perfect venue for a relaxed yet professional setting, allowing attendees to seamlessly transition between work and leisure.

Totally enjoyed my stay here. The room was spacious and clean including the bathroom. Great view of the beach and a central, convenient location. Now the staff: Very friendly and welcoming Really helpful AND incredibly honest. This deserves 10 stars. I left a gold chain with a solid gold heart in my room. Ellie arranged for someone to check my room and they found it and handed it in. Really shows what wonderful people are employed by Rydges. Am incredibly grateful. Thank you x

RFID cards didn't work on car park gates. Car park poorly signposted. Staff had to be reminded of their $25 daily food and beverage credit on checkout, as was charged full price for buffet breakfast. Buffet breakfast three and a half stars. Teenage staff response to car park access issues equated to 'not my problem'. Room was clean, tidy and well appointed. Good views available. Stayed two nights, car park issues not resolved.

Heads up that I first shared my experience with concierge who didn't note any of my feedback. They just put the used wine glasses back in to where I got them from without cleaning.. I maybe should have taken more notice prior to using them.. but.. would "assume" they'd be clean. Only one coffee cup.. just as well I'm travelling solo 😌 A lot of the power outlets also aren't functional.
