Recently my family and I needed to make an emergency trip to RPA for my father who was ICU. We booked the Rydges only for the convenience of it's closeness to the hospital and it's secure underground parking facility. The room was just a basic room nothing more. On our second day of stay my brother came to visit my... More

Although renovated the rooms are still run down, corridors musty and bar and restaurant area below par. When I stayed no one was manning the bar during happy hour and i had to go to reception to get service. Great location handy for Sydney Uni and Newtown.

This hotel is in a great location - close to King St, Newtown, and lots of fun shops and excellent restaurants. However, as others have said, this hotel badly needs to be refurbished.

Smelly carpets and bathroom, paint peeling from the wall, no decoration... really not expecting this considering this is part of the Rydges group and considering their rates aren't cheap. The bed was fine though. Lots of noise (banging doors etc.) so take your earplugs.

Desperately old and in need of refurbishment. The smell of musty carpet hits you as you get out of the lift and the room smelt like a urinal overlayed with bleach. Not totally pleasant! Window was screwed shut so no fresh air available. Upside was that it was actually clean - although carpets and curtains were stained. But the bed... More
