Rydges North Sydney, 4 star
When I traveled to Sydney, I hoped to stay in a different hotel; it was booked out, so I settled for the North Sydney Hotel. Really, it was better than I could have hoped for, not a consolation prize at all. Very quaint and spacious for a smaller hotel (only a hundred-something rooms?), it offered a comfortable stay that I wouldn't mind repeating.
