Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The best way to start a trip overseas when you have to be at the airport at 4am. Rooms are lovely, staff friendly, & such an easy walk to international departures."

PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney

W Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here multiple times, unfortunately this time our mini fridge had been turned off by someone at the power point. After notifying staff they were very accommodating sending ice to our room along with a complimentary bottle of wine. All staff are were very helpful in assisting with luggage and early check-in in along with moving our car to the front of the hotel for us in case we had to leave in an emergency ( a neighbours house being on fire)"
