Good location .very noisy at night our room was overlooking a busy road. Room great room but not as clean as it could be. Which let's the place down . Dust around edge of carpet behind bedroom cabinet . The fridge seal was disgustingly split and full of mould. The bath had a big crack in it. Pool was good but the decor needs a freshen up. Reception staff very pleasant and very helpful.

I recently stayed at Rydges Darling Square and, unfortunately, my experience did not meet expectations. Firstly, the reception staff seemed disengaged and uninterested in their roles. Not friendly. The front desk was often left unattended, leaving guests waiting for assistance. A warm and welcoming reception is crucial in hospitality, and this was noticeably lacking. Additionally, the hotel did not provide umbrellas on rainy days, which is a basic amenity in many hotels of this standard. It would have been a thoughtful touch for guests caught in bad weather. Lastly, breakfast was repetitive, with the same selection for six consecutive days. A bit of variety would greatly improve the dining experience for long-stay guests. Overall, the hotel has potential, but service standards and guest experience need significant improvement.

We stayed in a queen studio as a family of four. The room size was good and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom is dated and the shower head was split. Staff were apologetic when advised. The buffet breakfast was good and especially great for kids. Overall I would recommend this for a family city stay!

Excellent choice. The room was huge, comfortable, and well equipped. A nice balcony. All great. Location was also very good, allowing walk to the majority of the main spots. Staff was always friendly. Price was fair for the quality, so it is totally recommended.

Rooms are good and the people working here are nice. Location sucks, no parking area including anywhere to drop off or pick up. The WiFi is worse than in a third-world country, 3-7 mbps max, assuming it doesn't blink constantly or just go out for 5-10 minutes every hour.
