Nothing. Just note stairs to accommodation.

We stayed one night mid week. It was a great location for major road routes, shops and the Uni. The communication before our stay was great and the staff were lovely on our arrival. We were well looked after. The bistro was brilliant. Parking was convenient. It wasn’t noisy despite location.

Mattresses VERY soft. Food from previous guest left on freezer

Handy location to get to Olympic Park. Good to have tavern onsite for dinner. Hot breakfast included.

Not a criticism, but it would be nice to have a microwave in the room, especially when I travel for work.

I've stayed at The Ranch before, and it's always a pleasure to return. The location is great, close to the freeway and train station. The staff is excellent, the rooms are quiet and spacious, and breakfast packs are ready to go when you are. Comfortable beds, decent 4G mobile coverage and an okay hotel WiFi if you prefer. Best of all, it's next door to one of the best steak restaurants in the world!

I needed to access Macquarie University so this hotel was in an excellent location. The train station was within easy walking distance. The dinner in the restaurant was lovely and good value. I found a nearby cafe for breakfast.

The bed was very soft and not to my liking however, others might love a soft, spongy bed! Our room was near the kitchen exhaust so was quite noisy until after hours. There was no microwave oven which would have been handy.

Great location for attending an event at Olympic Park with free on-site parking; polite staff; comfortable, spacious room and reasonably priced. The inclusion of a lovely breakfast with a very good assortment of foods including sausages, eggs, bacon, toast, pastries, cereals, muffins and fruit along with tea/coffee and fresh juices; and complimentary drinks from the bar was an unexpected bonus! Our family was also welcomed to extended time in using the breakfast amenities (up until 10.30am on Sunday) which was handy for our late sleepers!

Smokers - you can smell the smoke wafting through from the rooms that have balconies.

Great room, very comfy bed, nice bathroom and great towels 😁

Bed was a bit too soft.

The room was larger than I expected with vaulted ceiling. Very good bistro downstairs and the meal I had was great value. Parking area for guests.

Two flights of stairs no lift

Staff very friendly, very good cooked breakfast on the weekend and cold breakfast packs through the week. Great size room, serviced daily.

The bed was extremely spongey, the room felt dark and dated. No lift if carrying suitcases. Curtains old but did the job Found the room furniture dated and air conditioner had the front panel missing. I would mention the front steps leading to reception are in need of a good wash down, didn't present well at all.

Room was spacious and clean. Coffee/Tea facilities were good as was the mini fridge. Bathroom was fine and presented clean Parking available Breakfast available and it was pretty good, including fresh fruit, juice, toast, eggs and bacon. Staff member on the 19th April did a great job making sure enough fruit and juices were available 👏👏👏

Good location and cosy bed.

Decent rooms, well maintained and clean

Stayed in March 2025

The rooms are big with high ceilings. They bedding is good and clean. The rooms are little tired, ie the walls and the bathrooms and curtains. Your could not sit on the balcony as it is right next to the aircond unit. I usually stay at the Nightcap in Pymble and those rooms are more recently renovated so maybe that is why. But the aircond is great, the road noise was not a issue at all.

Great location, having the restaurant right on the premises, having a set parking spot, the breakfast was brilliant.

Clothes hangers were difficult to manipulate in the track and more light needed in the bathroom. Small details not affecting the stay.

This property is excellent value. It is close to MU Uni, hospital and Macquarie Centre the rooms are clean with everything needed. The pub has an excellent menu with the food being wonderful along with great value.

The Ranch is halfway between the CBD and Parramatta, close to the freeways, Macquarie Shopping Centre and the University. It's an excellent venue for a good meal, too. The rooms are spacious and have everything I needed. And did I mention, they have free parking and lots of it? Highly recommended if you're travelling to the city for work.
