Top Rockdale Hotel Reviews

Paradox Sydney

8/10 Good

"This was our second stay at the Paradox, and we were a little disappointed with the room. It wasn’t as spacious as the one we had on our first visit, and the closet had only a couple of small drawers. There was also a strong, unpleasant odour coming from the bathroom sink."
