Location was good near Darling Harbour. Hotel was a bit worn with some mould in our Bathroom. Pool was cold on one of the days and spa was out of order both days which was disappointing. Most upsetting was we booked for 2 adults and 1 child but did not receive a bed for the child. When we questioned the hotel they said we had to use existing bedfing or pay $80 per day for a roll away. They gsve us a sheet and blanket and child had to sleep on couch. Disappointing when you put in the search accommodation for 2 adults and 1 child.

Hotel was dated and needs major upgrades. Pool ceiling was rusty and paint peeling off. Not sound proofing on glass doors. Located in quite a busy neighbourhood with people yelling and cars racing at night. Good distance to Darling Harbour, Light Rail and shops.

We enjoyed our week long stay at Rydges. The room was comfortable and quiet on the 5th floor. We had a large unit of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The front desk staff was very helpful as well. Something that was surprising to us was the area is a real hot spot for teens and younger people on Friday and Saturday nights. The streets were very crowded. I thought there was an event or concert, but no they said it was normal. Sunday through Thursday was more what I expected for a downtown area. It was easy to walk to many attractions we wanted to see. We did not have a car. It does not look like there is any parking but they might have a back entrance somewhere. Places to eat are everywhere. A few things I would suggest would be for the kitchen. There is no dishwasher so we had to hand wash dishes. Also, a toaster would be nice. There is a microwave but no stove or oven. Since we ate out mostly, these didn't really matter. We would definitely stay here again.

In my hotel room, 10:30am, walk out of the shower, ready for 11am check out. A staff knock on my door and then walked right in. Not enough time for me to step to the door and answer. She caught me in the middle of putting on clothes. Instead of apology, she ask if I had a late check-out arrangement!? Not sure how was her day, but not a nice start for me. Please ask staff to count to 10, if they are capable.

Suprised how central the location was. Very close to Darling Quarter, Darling Harbour, World Square and Haymarket. Bathrooms are newly renovated. We had breakfast buffet. It was good for 2 days but after that food was very repetitive and my family got sick of it. Please alternative food. Everything same like egg scramble, waffles, chicken sausage same every day including fruits and yogurt.
