A brilliant rink for both competitive and recreational skaters alike. The staff are very friendly and while the facilities are starting to show their age, the quality of the ice itself hasn’t faltered and is still the best ice rink in Sydney. There is a generous range of food options available at the canteen and party hosts that are great fun for the kids.

I'm an adult beginner, I have attended until now two of the holiday classes and I'm very satisfied with the lessons and the coaches. During public sessions they have at least 2 coaches in the rink to make sure everyone is ok. The place is usually cold, there is a big parking outside and a nice Canteen inside. The staff are helpful and friendly.
