Reviews for Rydges Geelong
Jenna Mazor
I’m not usually one to leave a negative review but this hotel had too many elements to not warn others to make sure they have reasonable expectations. I got into my room and the windows were creaking in the wind (you could see all the window sills were old and falling apart), one the wind changed direction it was ok but it was LOUD. As many other reviews mentioned aircon barely worked and was also loud and very dusty. The safety lock on the room was broken and the room wasn’t overly clean. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Considering that it is an old hotel, the room is clean and tidy. My sleep was good, and the bed was comfortable. Water was all over the drip tray when we arrived. To empty it, my spouse had to ask for towels. They offered us an upgrade. Next room size up with a view. A drink voucher each. The staff at the restaurant, housekeeping, and reception were all accommodating and kind.

I have no idea why this hotel is so popular with families... it has a small pool and is nowhere near any family attractions... but both nights I was there, despite the families in the rooms around me changing, the noise of kids running around and yelling in the hallways until well past 2am was unbelievable and incredibly rude... not the fault of the hotel, but I was very tempted to invite someone over to have very loud sex in the hope some of the families would prefer their noisy brats be in the room instead of screaming through the hallway all night! Otherwise, it was an adequate room, though insanely overpriced.

Haven’t stayed as yet - we were meant to check in on NYE but our baby became sick quickly in the morning and we had to go to hospital. Just wanted to leave a 5star review for the hotel’s compassion and kindness in changing our booking dates at short notice even though we were past the cancellation point. We’ve rebooked our dates and really confident of having a great stay after this interaction!

Pretty basic for the price. Bathroom door had significant damage. Great showers hot and good pressure. Coffee wasnt great ( cafe). Breakfast was nice but you had to wait for food to be replaced on buffet/ milk a lot. Parking is $27 extra a day.
