Clean room, friendly staff

Clean room, great staff.

Good location, hotel was comfortable and clean. But we needed to request clean towels and the coffee draw to be refilled and nothing was done. Disappointed with that.

Was perfect for what we needed to come back from hospital for over the week

Yes

Smooth, friendly, helpful check in and a lovely stay.

Spacious room

Close to hospital and facilities

The bed was about 10 years past its use by date

Good place to stay near university of Sydney

Staff polite and helpful. My issue was the room. Bathroom had black mould (are cleaners not supplied with bleach?). Once you got past the uncomfortable pillows (I know firmness/ softness differs from person to person), you were then hit with a sweat smell. I did have a mix up with breakfast (my fault) and they did comp that.

Great staff

Mould in the bathroom, mould on the bed cushions, bathroom hadn’t been cleaned. Car park is a total nightmare and I would strongly advise against this option if you can. For the price point it’s a disgrace.

Great breakfast. Friendly helpful staff Comfortable and quiet room Perfect location for patients attending Royal Prince Alfred hospital

The day I arrived the carpet had food scraps on the floor, I had to advise the staff. The glasses in the bathroom had white powdery substance and so did the tapware; On the third day the tissue box was empty, house keeping cleaned the room but did not replace it. Conditioner in the bathroom ran out even on the first day, i had to pump and try hard to extract some for my use, I thought there would be sufficient for my second use but no. Since I was already checking out, I didnot advise reception. I told reception about these issues. I stayed between 17th to 20th November 2021,, checked out on 21/11/2025 Room 501. The experience has left me reconsidering staying at the Hotel again in March 2025. I travel to Sydney 4 times a year.

Room and staff

Super easy to find, lovely staff. Property isn’t brand new but is maintained really well. Zero complaints, would stay again!

We stayed at Rydges Camperdown as it was 7 mins from The Carriageworks where we were attending The Affordable Art Fair. My hubby & I didn't want to BYO food, so we included breakfast at $35 each per day. The scrambled eggs were half cooked & wet slop. I had to speak to a staff member as people were complaining & avoiding them. Upon arrival I was informed that parking would also be $35 per day! We caught an Uber to the Art Fair. It ended up costing us over $1250 just for 2 nights stay, which was absurd, because it's not luxury accomodation (stay at the Venetian Hotel in Macau to see real luxury for less $$!!) Our room was on the 2nd floor. It was clean, but the hotel is a little old and tired. The large rain shower head leaked freezing cold water over you while you were having a warm shower under the hand-held one, & it leaked out the side of the pipe as well. Our room overlooked the main road & we had street traffic with noisy ambulances all day and night. But the bed was very comfortable, at least. This was what saved it. We ate dinner in the hotel restaurant both nights, & the food was delicious. Nothing fancy... normal food choices like garlic bread, a chicken roast dinner, barramundy, caesar salad, or chicken schnitzel. This was great because we didn't have to leave the hotel after walking all day. Overall, it was everything we needed, just way too pricey. They need to reduce their room prices if you're going to charge so much money for parking & breakfast on top.

Poorly sloped floor in bathroom, so puddles form, a bad fall hazard. Stained shower curtain. No soap at basin. No printed guide to the hotel in the room—menus, hotel facilities, etc Great to have so many usb sockets. M much better to provide wifi with security. Large room size was great.

The room was very clean and generously sized and the staff were helpful, particularly prompt and effective assistance from maintenance staff.
