Rydges North Sydney has just reopened its doors with a major makeover.
We seized the opportunity for a little mid-week workation (interspersed with plenty of play, of course) to check out what’s on offer at North Sydney’s newest haunt.
The Rydges revamp coincides with the opening of the shiny new Victoria Cross metro, conveniently located just across the road. Enjoy lightspeed travel to: Barangaroo (2 mins), Martin Place (5 mins), and Chatswood in just 5 mins! Everything from the 168 rooms to the restaurant to conference rooms and communal spaces have undergone a top-to-toe glow-up and with the arrival of 15 new food and beverage offerings within the Victoria Cross precinct, Rydges just have pipped it to the post for our favourite city stay.
If you’re seeking a little luxe, the Two Bedroom Harbour View Penthouse is the ultimate exclusivity, spreading out over 72m² with stunning views of Sydney Harbour. This suite has everything you need for a relaxing boujie weekend with friends. Featuring two King Beds, a chic lounge area, kitchenette and a large private balcony to soak up the iconic Sydney vista – you might even find yourself wanting to stay in for the night.
Rest assured ‘a night in’ is well catered. Enjoy a feed from Wattle Bar & Kitchen, the hotel’s Modern-Astralian restaurant, serving up deliciousness derived from local land and sea. Enjoy menu signatures such as herb-baked bone marrow; king prawns with chipotle smoked butter; perfectly cooked Scotch Fillet; and a sticky date pudding that’s almost as dreamy as the renowned Rydges dream beds.
Venture out, and you’ll be spoilt for choice. From Japanese feasts and fresh pastas at the new Aura precinct, to Aussie-Italo hits at Bar Lettera and charcoal-grilled steaks at Poetica, North Sydney’s rejuvenated dining scene caters every flavour.
