Great accommodation
Rydges Sydney Central was a lovely place to stay overnight. Everything you need and it even had its own cinema to watch a Christmas movie. The hotel rooms have plenty of space and there’s a tea/coffee room you can use to heat up food in the microwave and sit down to watch tv in quietness. The buffet breakfast is very good and there’s a small gym, nice indoor swimming pool and sauna.

Great location by the central station and walkable to Chinatown and darling harbor. Lots of good cafes and restaurants nearby. Friendly, accommodating staff, the pool and spa pool were quiet and relaxing. Our room was comfortable and we never heard any noise from the hall or street. I’ve stayed at this hotel a few times and it’s always great.

Great location. Shopping, restaurant, sydney harbour ect are in walking distance. However it wasn't quit due to being close to the train station and it is in the city. Facility was great. However, the technology required an update, i.e., tv dont include streaming services.
