Antoine, Feb 2026
I had a very good experience at Paradox Sydney, including an upgraded room at no additional charge. However I was not able to fully assess the experience as I arrived late at night and had to leave early next day. Nevertheless the hotel is very well appointed and positioned. I would recommend it.

Pros (+) We had originally rented an apartment in Sydney. However, due to construction at night, we had to relocate. We found a great rate at the Raddisson Blu and booked it. We enjoyed the last few nights of our vacation in a beautiful and comfortable room. The hotel staff was very helpful and the hotel was spotless. We would definitely stay there again!
