Rydges Norwest Sydney

Good welcome, quick check-in. Room was average-size, a little dated, but comfortable. Bathroom desperately needs refurbishment. See pics - stains in the tub, cracked soap dish, shower curtain dirty, bath mat broken and covered in mould. The last two points are simple & cheap fixes that would hugely improve the appearance before renovations are undertaken. Pool area pleasant, decent sized pool. Loud pipes, I think maybe someone was filling a bath and it was audible above TV. Also, hairdryer noise was loud, some better sound-proofing internally would be good, but no road noise which was great given the main road nearby. Parking $15/night which was not mentioned anywhere. Did not get to eat in the restaurant. Pleasant service, probably a bit overpriced considering the tired rooms.

Had to change plans and could not stay. Could not refund. Disappointing

When I’m having shower, suddenly the hotel staff enter the room without ringing, I was shocked. The staff said he missed to add back two chocolates bars for the mini bar. Totally terrified. And the toilet light flash.

great staff and convenient.

Stayed 2 nights. The staff were very helpful. The room was good. The dining option is very poor. There is an Italian restaurant in the hotel and is very expensive. $30.47 for one person for an average breakfast. I paid $25 for 2 people earlier in the week at the Novotel Darling Harbour. The pizza $25 was terrible. Made on what appeared to be store bought pre-made dough which did not rise. Very poor for an Italian Restaurant. $6 for a Coke. The pasta was good but $33 for a plate. No lunch options. There is a Coffee Club across the road for a better breakfast. A 10-minute walk to a shopping village has a lot more food options including a Pizza and pasta place for less $$'s. Plenty of parking.
