We had a very pleasant one-night stay at Rydges. The property appeared to have had a recent refurbishment; the lobby and restaurant were modern and up to date, rooms were bright and airy, and everything was functional. The beds were standout; seemingly quite new they were soft and comfortable, and pillows were sturdy and supportive. The staff member at check-in was fantastic, and provided me with a pedestal fan for our room at my request. While a fairly basic offering, all room facilities were clean & worked. Our room had a nice view of the bay. The open-air parking lot with quite a high daily fee is unfortunate, and the rooms do lack a safe. Being winter, we didn't have the opportunity to test the (outdoor) pool & facilities. A budget-friendly, updated hotel with comfortable beds, good for a short stay.

The room was comfortable and spacious, although the bathroom was quite small. The room however lacked a few things. There was no milk for tea or coffee, no in room information about services available. The heating in the room was broken, but we were supplied with a small fan heater on request. Also no streaming services on the TV, only normal free to air TV, no Netflix or anything which I have never struck before. Room service was pretty ordinary but tasted okay, definitely wasn't presented very well. The staff were very nice and helpful when we needed anything.

Staff are fantastic here. From reception to restaurant staff. Genuine, warm and friendly hospitality. Good buffet breakfast and a nice bar to relax in and late check out. Will definitely be back

Reviews on this place weren’t great but I was pleasantly surprised. Rooms are looking a bit tired but are spacious and bathroom was modern. Bed was fantastic! Service was very good, nice little bar and restaurant downstairs and good location. I would happily stay here again.

Positives. Friendly and helpful staff. Car parking. The view from our window. Negatives. Only one comfy chair in the room there's two if us. Had to get more milk tea and coffee only enough for one. No coffee mugs . Telephone didn't work. Dirty towels on arrival had to get fresh ones. Bed comfortable and clean. Flaking ceiling in bathroom and dirty doors at the bottom also slimy shower floor. Meal in the evening was such a let down with my tiger prawns being shrimps. Apology only. Jan and Maru
