6/10 Good

Do NOT recommend
The most important part of any review is whether I would return and unfortunately I would not return to Rydges Darling Apartments. It was mediocre in terms of the property and very poor customer service. 1. Apartment hotel should have better kitchen and laundry facilities (this had no oven, no dishwasher, no washer or dryer). I looked in 10 drawers and cupboards (which were entirely empty) before finding a glass. It was poorly equipped. 2. Management are misleading...they run a system where you get a $10 daily credit for not getting your room serviced but the original flyer promise doesn't match the actual. It turned out it is only for use on food and beverage bill (didn't say restaurant or bar so I assumed any food or beverage) and when we tried to use it on a the mini-bar (which is food and beverage) they refused. On top of this, you're meant to be able to do 3 days running of the deal but on the third day they ignored the sign and came in and woke up my wife who was alone in the room. What was printed on the sign was different to what they actually do. Reception staff could not have cared less. 3. Reception lied to my wife. A friend of ours was meeting us to go to dinner and we asked for the restroom and was told there wasn't one and had to use our hotel room, yet there was one up the stairs by the bar. Management, employ frontline staff with a better customer service attitude and if you offer a deal, honour it fully. There are lots of better hotels in Sydney.

2/10 Poor

Nice hotel, garbage payment system.
Checkin was a disaster. They charged me. My account was debited but because their system is archaic they claimed they had not received the money. 10 days later after multiple ph calls by me to my bank and the hotel the matter was finally sorted out. They said the issue was their system froze when they did the transaction and they knew it was an issue prior, they had said that they have had this issue at reception with a particular eftpos machine before.The hotel was ok but the service with regard to paying was 1980's. I should have paid cash. I have travelled the world over a 10 year period and never had such an issue. Will never stay there again. The accounts people bordered on rude and I had been advised by reception at the hotel that I would have to pay again and that the original debit would disappear from my bank account after 7 days but according to my bank it takes 30 days. So I would have been out of pocket $2000 for a month. No compensation was offered for an issue that was not me or my bank but the hotel. Simply not good enough.

Clean but dated
In the Chinatown part of town so it’s very busy outside. However it is close to the town hall station. Room is dated especially the carpet. Small things such as only one light beside the bed and no switches for the main light near the bed. Overall very clean

Back Again
Rydges Darling Square is conveniently located to public transport, Chinatown, Darling Harbour and Cockle Bay. It was a very comfortable hotel that offered a spacious room, comfortable bed and very good facilities. The staff were very quick to respond to requests we made of them. This is our second stay at the hotel and we would highly recommend it staying in Sydney.

I enjoyed our stay, friendly staff, good facilities and comfy beds. I wish it more obvious upon booking that there is no parking. Was not expecting to pay an additional $45 for parking off-site and walking with our luggage. There were some minor cleaning issues… hair in bathroom, kitchen dusty but otherwise good. Ducted air con didn’t seem to work well and even on lowest setting room still quite hot. Otherwise I enjoyed our stay!

8/10 Very good

Great location, close to Chinatown, Darling Harbour and George St. Lots of dining options close by. The Standard Apartment we stayed in was getting a bit dated, although clean and serviceable (Rm 606). However the air conditioner filter was caked in dust and didn't look like it has been cleaned in a while. This was rectified once we advised reception. The air conditioner itself didn't seem to cool the room down too. We made use of the swimming pool and spa, which were nice to have. I'd recommend the property, but perhaps a renovated Superior Apartment, if the budget allows
