Top Kensington Street Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"A truly lovely hotel. Great location and really is one of the best hotels in Sydney."

Rydges Sydney Central

8/10 Good

"I wasn't sure what to expect of this place, after reading some of the reviews. But all in all, it was pretty good when considering the price paid over a weekend while Vivid is on. First the good: The spacious room, very comfortable bed, ample mirrors (including full length), the onsite awesome Brew Bar (Sydney Brewery) which does a great range of beers and a daily food/drink special. Happy Hour is very happy/happy! The proximity to Central Station makes it easy to get from/to the airport and then anywhere you could possibly want to go, I zipped down to Circular Quay every day on trains that were very frequent (Exit 3/Elizabeth St is your best exit). The not so good: The rooms are a bit tired, showing their age, particularly the bathroom. But put into the context of the price paid, this is to be expected. The one thing that stood out most was the faint smell of what I thought to be stale cigarette smoke. It was very faint, but noticeable on day one when I first entered the room. I seemed to get used to it as the days went on though."
