Fantastic hotel for families, the amenities for kids are amazing and my kids didn't leave the huge pool/waterpark. Good sized rooms compensated for the fact that the resort is older. I'll take a big bathroom with separate shower and bath and space to walk around in the room over some chipped paint and sad artwork any day of the week. Especially combined with an outstanding buffet breakfast. We will definitely be back.

Nice spot and getaway, Greta for families and kids. Our experience at the respondent that great as out room wasn’t ready till after 2 hours of our arrival which was a hit frustrating. I had to speak to the duty manager who well looked after us. Food and beverage team were fabulous, chef Angela was such a great person who well looked after our dietaries. Breakfast was good with decent variety and options available, they do barista coffee included with breakfast which was a big tick. Pool and kids water splash area are both nice, unfortunately no lifeguards around to watch and keep an eye for any incidents which may occur.

I would like to compliment the staff who put together the Christmas buffet lunch this year. I attended with 2 others & firstly was impressed that we were at our own beautifully decorated table. What followed was the most outstanding array of hot & cold dishes, salads, seafood, vegetarian options & the best dessert buffet I've seen. The drink options were excellent, staff exemplary & the background music a great choice of traditional & modern. 10/10!!

Rydges Resort Hunter Valley is a fantastic getaway destination. Nestled in the heart of wine country, it offers stunning views of vineyards and mountains. The resort boasts excellent amenities, including two swimming pools (an adult only one too), tennis courts, a day spa, and an 18-hole golf course. The rooms are comfortable with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.

During my stay, I attended a work function at the resort, and the conference facilities were top-notch and our awards dinner was beautiful. The staff was attentive and ensured that everything ran smoothly. Whether you're looking for a family vacation or a professional event, Rydges would be great. While you are there, make a booking for Muse Restaurant (2km away), it won’t disappoint.

Great for Families, But Some Drawbacks We recently stayed here and found it to be a great hotel for kids. The atmosphere is very family-friendly, and the food was surprisingly not bad (coming from California and London!) However, there are a few things to be aware of: If you're considering staying in a one-bedroom villa, like we did, know that it's not located in the main building. You'll need to walk about five minutes from reception to get there. Unfortunately, cleaning services were not provided, and our villa was infested with bugs, which was disappointing. Another drawback was the dessert truck—the ice cream was a letdown, so I'd suggest skipping it. On a positive note, the staff were young, friendly, and accommodating. This is a wonderful spot for families, but I wouldn’t recommend it for adults traveling without kids. Be sure to do your research on the room type before booking to ensure it suits your needs.
