I spent one night it.. I wasn't enough. I would have loved to take the whole week off and spend it HERE. Great accommodation, extremely good food, good service and city location. I highly recommend

Whilst this Hotel is run by Rydges I don't think it is actually owned by them, only affiliated, and may not be up to the standard usually associated with Rydges. It is a fairly basic 3 1/2 star establishment, but offers a very handy location - near Central Station, light rail and the mono rail, and walking distance to the city centre and Darling Harbour. The rooms are very small but have the baiscs: ensuite (note that the bath was quite small & really only suitable for kids), fridge, tea/coffee making, air-con, TV (no extra channels or movies though, only free to air) etc... I believe they offer Internet connections in the room but I did not use this option as I didn't have a lap-top. The buffet breakfast isn't bad if you can get a special deal, but would be expensive at the full price of $19. I booked on-line and for $120 a night it was perfectly adequate accommodation in a great, central location.

Approximate cost: $120/night
