Hotel is right downtown, embedded among high-rise buildings. Good walking distance to tourist sights. Breakfast buffet is very expensive, but there is a nice food court right across the street. Decent bar with light food offerings. Room was nice, with good tech sockets near the bed. (Expedia did not warn me that the hotel's name had changed, and that was disconcerting. I blame Expedia for that, though, not the hotel.)

Very nice stay at The Rydges. The location was wonderful, lots of restaurants and shopping close by.The rooms were very clean,a bit on the small side but it didn’t bother us we were there to shower and sleep. We had the breakfast option and it was very good, lots to choose from.Would not hesitate to stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Leaving was the best part. Even then the taxi I booked the day before, was given to someone else! The hotel had changed it's name, which was not communicated to me. And when I called the hotel, it gave me options on the phone. And when I chosed one the line went dead. I ended up staying somewhere else. This is a very poor service. When a hotel changes its name, all customers booked there should be made aware immediately, though in my case I was not! Why?

Its a small hotel so there are no overwhelming aspects. The staff were all very lovely and attentive. The location makes it easy to go anywhere in the city. It felt safe and very comfortable . Breakfast was a buffet, it was ordinary but plentiful. We will stay there again.

Our stay at Rydges Australia Square was excellent. Our room was clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for our Sydney activities. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We particularly liked our breakfast buffet each day…very good! Our only issue was with the very loud music coming from the outdoor bar adjacent to the hotel.

Nothing not to like about this hotel. A few mins walk from Circular Quay, right behind George Street,... Tonnes of bars and restaurants a stones throw, yet we found zero street noise and all very safe. Staff were all very friendly and obliging. Room was very comfortable with everything you could want including a stocked mini bar, safe, and free movies etc. A really good rate for the standard and location. Would definitely stay again.
