Reviews for Rydges Canberra
Ian Graeme
We had an excellent stay at Rydges Canberra. Located close to many attractions and the CB; it was easy to get around and hotel parking was convenient ($10 fee). There were three adults sharing the room with two adjacent double beds that were very supportive and comfortable. The room was spacious with good views and well appointed. The bathroom was stylish with all modern conveniences and had recently been refurbished so ticked all the boxes. There was a piece of furniture in the main room which needed repair or replacing that lessened our rating. Breakfast was buffet style and quite good apart from the filtered coffee which was a letdown. Other hotels we've stayed at provide self-serve expresso machines which are better quality and way more popular. Breakfast was included in the room tariff which, considering it was under $200/night, was very good value. We loved the heated 25m indoor pool & spa and made good use of it. In summary, we had a really restful and enjoyable stay at Rydges and would definitely stay there again.

My room was in poor condition. Carpet full of holes. Bathroom dirty with calcified shampoo bottle rim. Phone dusty and in need of a good wipe down. Fridge had frozen the soft drinks. Iron bottom burnt. Furniture chipped and missing pieces. Bathroom bin broken. Air conditioning very old and noisy. Room service unavailable on Monday lunch. Housekeeping didn't show up with cutlery after I resorted to Uber Eats. Even the revolving doors at the front aren't working. Good location but I don't think anyone has invested in maintenance on the building or deep cleaning in a long time.

We had 5 rooms booked for an event Every room the bathrooms had mould and soap build up. Rooms were not serviced but the motel have a card to say if room wasnt serviced $10 each day returned and nothing. False advertising. Air con vent was full of dust Location is great The blonde at the bar had excellent customer service.

We spent two nights at this beautiful hotel and thoroughly enjoyed the exquisite breakfast. Alina and Jack were absolutely delightful, attending to our every need with exceptional care. We will definitely be staying again.

Steer clear - While the staff did their best the rooms are far below a 4 star hotel. The bottom sheet on my bed didn't even fit/ the cleaners didn't bother to find one that did fit, so my feet were touching the bare mattress...I booked a queen room and was given a double bed (I'm tall and paid a higher price for a queen), the sheets were stained in places and smelled like the inside of an Indian restaurant. While the website and foyer give the illusion of a nice hotel this place is far from it!!
