Separately a man is due to appear in Sydney's Central Local Court today, charged over the alleged kidnapping of a teenager.

Police arrested a 24-year-old man after they forced their way into a hotel room in Wattle Street, Ultimo, last night.

Officers from City Central Local Area Command had been called to the business after guests heard someone calling for help about 11pm.

They arrived to see the youth allegedly being dragged into a room by the older man.

Police have been told the 17-year-old, from Epping, was being held against his will following a dispute over money.

A man, from Umina Beach, was charged with kidnapping and was refused bail until his appearance in court.

The teenager was treated for scratches to his arms and neck.
