Rydges North Sydney

“Helpful staff”

People from reception are very friendly and helpful. They went beyond and above to sort out my parking issue I had with hotels underground parking. Great housekeeping and clean room.

“Central, clean but still developing.”

I’ve not stayed here before but as Black member I was upgraded to a 2 bedroom corner suite, which was nice. However that’s sort of where the goodness ended. There has been, or is an upgrade process underway across the hotel, the rooms have been modernised to a point, but everything else feels old and worn out. The rooms feel small, there’s too much stuff in them, and you feel hemmed in. The bar and restaurant area is again old, but clean and tidy. I’m only having a grumble because I stay 40plus nights a year with the chain and this one feels like it needs some more love. Having said that, it’s clean, appears to be centrally located and is very handy to the metro line. I’m a little ho-hum on this one, but a bed is a bed and it’s clean and comfortable. I guess if you know the chain well, just understand this one is still coming up to standard.

The hotel is close to a Metro station at Miller & McLaren Sts and you can take either street but the longer one via Miller St is flatter. I arrived at about 230 pm and was looking for food but nothing was available and room service didn't commence for another 2 hours. There was little available nearby at that time except for an up-market restaurant. Dinner had to be ordered from the bar and choices were limited, with only one person serving drinks and the food. It wasn't busy and this may account for why the chips served with my meal were stone cold. Breakfast was better staffed and of a reasonable standard. The coffee which was included came from air pots and wasn't hot enough, though there was the option to pay more money for a fresh brew.
