This hotel is quite central. The parking entrance is a bit tricky; it's the leftmost lane, actually the entrance to the World Square car park. This setup is different from traditional car park entrances in China, which caused us to miss it and drive around the city center in circles. 

The hotel's dedicated parking is on level 3 (which is actually underground). When you enter the car park, you go down from levels 7, 6, 5, and so on. If you're driving to the hotel, you need to go to level 3. Be sure to follow the signs to the hotel's parking level on level 3 (different hotels use different levels for their private parking, so don't get confused). Once you've parked on level 3 in the hotel's dedicated parking, there's an elevator right next to it that takes you directly to the hotel's front desk on the L floor. Parking is expensive: AUD 60 for a weekend day and AUD 70 on weekdays. You pay by scanning a QR code. I hope this helps anyone driving themselves.

Everything else was fine. Parking in Sydney is really, really expensive if you're driving yourself. 😂

Arrived internationally, turned right out of the terminal, crossed the road, and it was indeed very close. We arrived at night and stayed one night before catching an early morning domestic flight the next day. It was a five-minute walk to the free shuttle bus stop, which was super convenient. Checked baggage for domestic departures was very slow; it took 45 minutes for the queue and security check. After security, there were plenty of food options.

Choosing the right hotel for my Sydney trip really made all the difference! The Rydges World Square completely exceeded my expectations, absolutely deserves a perfect score!

📍Location is unbeatable: Right in the heart of Sydney, within walking distance to the Sydney Opera House and Hyde Park. There are tons of malls and restaurants nearby, making it super convenient for both sightseeing and shopping. It saved so much commute time.
🏨Room Experience: We booked a deluxe twin room, and it was spacious with soft, comfortable bedding. The room was spotlessly clean, no corners missed. All the facilities were complete, and the toiletries were good quality. The soundproofing was excellent, so it was really quiet at night, perfect for a good rest.
💁♀️Service was perfect: Everything from check-in to check-out was incredibly smooth. The front desk staff were warm and professional, proactively offering to help with luggage and answering travel questions. Any request was quickly attended to, with thoughtful attention to detail.
🌿Environment is superb: The hotel lobby has a fantastic design, and the common areas are clean and tidy, creating a comfortable and upscale atmosphere. It's great for relaxing and even for taking photos.

My friend and I had such a comfortable stay. I'll definitely choose this place again on my next trip to Sydney, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting!

This is really a good hotel for cost, location and sevice. Although the room was small it had all the requirements for a single or two people. It is only a 10 min walk to central station so very covenient if you fly in or out to take airport train. The entrance is in campbell st just off george st. For first timers just press the camera to gain entrance and go to 2nd floor receptionn. The breakfast is only continental but there is plenty of it. All the girls were extremely helpful.. The Hay st Market and other attractions are all within walking distance and if you want to go to the bridge, opera house or circular quay just hop onto the light rail close by. I would definitely stay there again on my next trip to sydney

“The hotel is in a convenient location. The room had many empty cabinets, which seemed unnecessary as they didn’t serve any clear purpose 😀. I was also surprised that my card, provided for the security deposit, was charged upon check-out even though I didn’t use anything from the minibar. After contacting the hotel by email, they assured me the amount would be refunded. Guests should be cautious when providing card details for a security deposit.

We stayed for 8 nights with our 3-year-old toddler, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish.

Location: Perfect. We walked easily from the train station after arriving from Sydney Airport. The hotel is within a 10-minute walk to Darling Harbour, about 15 minutes to Wildlife Sydney and SEA LIFE, and right next to Darling Square park. Plus, Coles, Priceline, Chemist Warehouse, and everything else we needed were just minutes away.

Room layout: We booked a one-bedroom apartment with a living room, balcony, large kitchen, and lovely bathroom. The space was huge – ideal for a family. The dining table was a real bonus, and the kitchen had everything we needed. I was able to cook breakfast and dinner for our toddler each day, so we didn’t have to eat out every night. That saved us time, money, and hassle.

Service: Housekeeping came almost every day, and the customer service from the entire team was fantastic – everyone was so friendly and helpful.

If you’re travelling with a young child and want space, convenience, and a welcoming atmosphere, I would absolutely recommend Rydges Darling Square Apartment Hotel. We’ll be back!

I thoroughly enjoyed my overnight stay at Rudy’s North Sydney. The lovely man who checked me into the Hotel was so helpful. The following morning the host of the breakfast restaurant was also very friendly and helpful. I would stay here again. Rooms are renovated with nice products.

Upon arrival the room smelled like stale cigarettes and stagnant water which was extremely unpleasant. I had to prop the door open with my suitcase to get fresh air in with the window open. I ended up going to the supermarket to buy carpet deodoriser and air freshener to get the smell out. I could still smell it when I left after 2 days. When I went to get into bed it was very obvious the bed had been slept in and the pillowcase had not been changed. I had to strip the bed and make it with what was left over with the sheet that goes over the doona. I know it was NYE and paid over $600 a night for the room, but wasn’t expecting the room to not smell ok and have fresh linen.

Have stayed before and would do again. Thanks

Good location, staff were nice.
I found it a little run down, overall.  The photo on the brochure must be a decade old!  Inside the rooms and around the property is not 4 star.

I had a great stay at Rydges Rotorua, part of EVT Hotels. The location is fantastic, especially being close to Whakarewarewa Forest and many of Rotorua’s key attractions, making it convenient for both relaxation and exploration.

The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a nice view and all the essential amenities. The bed was very comfortable, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel felt welcoming and relaxing. One of the highlights was the geothermal heated outdoor pool, which was perfect for unwinding after a long day.

The staff were friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests. The on-site restaurant offered good quality food, and the breakfast selection was satisfying.

Overall, Rydges Rotorua delivers a solid and enjoyable experience with good value for money. I would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Rotorua for a comfortable and convenient stay.

The overall experience was very disappointing. The service desk was always occupied since there was only one staff member available, which made check-in and any requests very time-consuming. The biggest issue was the hot water kettle in the room—it was in terrible condition, with visible dirt and stains. I needed to boil water for my baby, but it was impossible to use safely. This was a nightmare and left me very dissatisfied with the stay.

Easy to locate and is inside the airport. Handy for those late night arrivals and early morning departures. Have booked to stay again on my return home to Australia

Seriously lacking in hospitality. Asked for a latte at 5:57am and was told “ we don’t  open until 6am”
No newspapers available. Bellhop service virtually nonexistent. Room service was good. Front desk agent untrained and unsupervised. No greeting upon entering the hotel or restaurant. Great mixologist at the bar. 
Kudos to Andreas the only friendly person we met not really sure what his position is there but he was great, helpful and kind to two old ladies with multiple bags. 
No hand soap in the bathroom and towels were not changed. 
$45.00 per day valet car service seems a bit much given that there really isn’t another option. We stayed in a “superior double double “ Not sure what superior meant. One of the beds was hard up against a wall. Less than a meter between end of beds and desk/tv stand. Entertainment system did not offer any pay as you go options just a bunch of sky. No Netflix type options. I will not be recommending this hotel to anyone and most certainly will not be going back!
