Rydges World Square Hotel in downtown Sydney was a wonderful, classy, comfortable hotel. The staff were excellent, the room well-appointed and it was located right downtown with many services nearby including a number of internet cafes so that you can catch up with happenings a world away. I would certainly recommend it. more

Having read some of the reviews of this hotel on here we seriously considered cancelling our booking but in the end decided to go for it. Were glad we did, dont know what all the fuss is about. The hotel is brilliantly located just a short walk from darling harbour. An easy walk to central station and the museum station.... more

I booked the hotel at short notice, using a special offer on a well known website. The room was meant to be a "superior King", in the Rydges World Tower, a downtown 5* Sydney hotel. The hotel itself is situated on top of a Shopping centre in Downtown Sydney, 5 mins walk from Darling Harbour, but much further from Circular... more

This is not a 5 Star, blow-your-hair-back hotel, but you'll be happy to have stayed here. The rooms are nice sized and modern (flat panel TVs as an example), and the staff is kind and helpful. We arrived in at the hotel at 11am (after a LONG flight from the US), and they were happy to let us check in.... more

I had to ring 3 times before they would change and confirm the room as a twin room. On getting to the hotel, the lobby was nice, but on... more

Stayed for two nights for business, this hotel is in a great location, close to Shopping & business district. Valet parking was easy & the hotel kept my car until the afternoon of the day I checked out so as I could attend a course close by, they also offered to store my luggage for the day. This was done... more

Stayed here for a total of 6 nights in March and April 2008. Had been a little bit nervous given some of the feedback on here but made the booking on a basis of a number of stays with Rydges in London but have no regrets at all. Room was spacious and clean and the staff throughout the hotel were... more

Spent two nights here, traveling alone with toddler, and the majority of the hotel staff certainly didn't make the experience any easier. To be fair, the concierge team was excellent, lending me a stroller as I hadn't expected to be spending any time in Sydney and suggesting toddler-friendly activities and eateries. The rest of the staff were experts at avoiding... more

My sister and I spent the past weekend at Rydges World Square. Got a great deal on the hotel website for an executive twin which included free canapes, drinks and continental breakfast in the Executive Lounge. Dinner in the hotel Avery's restaurant was excellent....while not a huge menu the food was cooked to perfection and not overly priced. The staff... more
