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!
We stayed here for one night as we were going to a concert at the Opera House the next day. The room was on the 7th floor, it was clean and spacious with a very soft( dare I say too soft) king bed. We had dinner at the adjoining Sydney Brewery and managed to hit their happy hour😁 breakfast was a lovely buffet in the Manna loft. Parking was a little pricey at $58, but in saying that it was for a full 24 hours. We arrived about an hour earlier than the 2pm check in time but we were fortunate that they had a room ready for us. We would definitely stay here again.
Perfectly located by Central Station, this hotel was a wonderful place for us in Sydney. Comfortable, lovely, quiet rooms, cool views, great bed, terrific breakfast buffet (ours was included in our rate, but not everyone’s is), and a microbrewery literally next door! Loved it.
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!
Due to the recent power outage at Rydges World Square my booking for Tuesday night was moved to Rydges Sydney Central. Our welcome was non-existant. The staff checking us in were stressed, out of their depth and less than welcoming to so many of us. I understand that the situation was not of their making but it wasn't our fault either. To be handed over to one particular staff member who then herded us to one side and proceeded to check in many other people and ignore us was frustrating and poor customer service. To regularly 'blame' the other site for poor communication or no information wasn't good form either. There was no information about dining options given or breakfast when we did finally get to check in - by re-joining the line. My room when I finally got to it was lovely and very comfortable. On reflection - the location was good but I wouldn't rush back there if the check in staffs attitude and behaviour on that night are indicative of what is the norm for this place. Not welcoming at all.
