Good from far, far from good.
Had been told it was recently renovated and good for conferees but unsure I'd want clients staying there. Shortcuts for check-in/check-out, minimal staff made for poor first time experience.. no in room telephone so not so straightforward way of contacting room service. In room dining (cheese burger) probably worst in room dining meal ever. Overall a disappointment.

TV Problems
Hotel was lovely and so was the staff. We had an issue where the second TV didn’t work, the staff came up three times and tried to fix it but then gave up.

The only downside was the excessively loud music outside the entrance and inside the foyer. What’s the purpose of this? Who needs it? I’m on holiday to relax. Otherwise, all good.

A fantastic recent refurbishment makes this hotel a top choice - beautifully designed rooms and reception lobby areas. The hotel owners and Rydges should be proud of the product that they now have in this hotel. Hotel is in a great North Sydney location, very close to the new Metro station (Victoria Cross) and getting to the “other side of the bridge” was a breeze, the Nth Sydney location is clean, safe and within walking distance to cafe, bars etc. A couple of things could improve to make it a five-star stay: vacuum the room better and staff engagement with guests could be better. We will definitely stay again - this hotel will now be one of our preferred choices for Sydney.

I checked in after work at 6pm. I couldn't sleep because of noise on my level. Ended up checking out at 11pm and going to another hotel. Staff were not helpful. Car parking garage would not open to exit. Would not recommend.

North Sydney hotel adjacent to the new metro
The hotel is so convenient to the new metro. It was great for a family trip to Sydney
