Alexander Hotel (Rydal Pub) - Lithgow Rydal, NSW BLUE MOUNTAINS
Address:
Bathurst Street, Rydal, NSW, Australia
Description:
Visit the picturesque historic village of Rydal and stay at the Hotel Alexander, affectionately known by the locals and visitors as the "Rydal Pub".
Experience the warm hospitality and true friendly locals in a real country pub. Relax by cosy open fires on cooler nights, outdoors in the beer garden, or simply sit back on the verandah and take in the view across the beauitiful countryside.
Home-style meals are provided from the new kitchen, and coffee and snacks are available throughout the day.
Seven bedrooms are located upstairs. They are basic pub-style (yet to undergo renovation), and with a new share-bathroom.
The pub may be fairly quiet during the week, but on Thursday nights the fishing club holds their raffle nights. Fridays and Saturday nights there is a video jukebox and some may party until well after midnight, depending on who is around! We have a license until 3.00am.
Weather can range from warm during the day to quite cool in the evenings and mornings. There is often a chance of snow in the winter months as we are at an elevation of around 960 metres.
Children: 12 and under

Sorry that you feel your room was not up to an acceptable standard. With new cleaning staff we have gone through all the rooms, however some renovation is required to bring it up to the level where we will be promoting accommodation to the wider population. |
