Great value for money, free upgrade. Some maintenance going on near my room, which was a little noisy. At least they waited until after 9am. Was travelling for work, but will definitely stay again for a holiday if the service is just as good.

Our stay at Rydges was incredible. Room with great view and service our stay was pleasant. The restaurant staff was helpful as well. Unfortunately due to personal reason we had to shorten our trip, and the staff was incredibly supportive and did a refund for remaining days, which most other hotels won't do.

The room has been nice Comfortable bed with nice views A/C in room has been great. It's a 10-15 minute.walk to centre of town. The staff has been fantastic. Breakfast and dinner could not fault the food. Very enjoyable.

Lovely front reception staff, willing to answer any Q’s you have. However: The house keeping staff don’t communicate with the front reception staff, our room didn’t get cleaned for 3 days!! (I did get that deducted from my account though) My bed had bed bugs!! I woke up every day w it bites makes all over my body. There are no signs for out in the pool areas for “no smoking” we saw 3 people smoke around outside & no staff members pulled them up on it!! On the up side of all that; The view was amazing & the hotel is walkable to all restaurants & cafe’s. The breakfast buffet in the morning was amazing & everything was very fresh every day. I would recommend this place to others on a warning of the above issues. Value for money but is in desperate need for improvement.
