⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From the moment we arrived, the service was next-level and that’s all thanks to Tyra. She was an absolute standout! Friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, Tyra went above and beyond to make our stay effortless and enjoyable. Nothing was ever too much trouble every interaction was warm and authentic, and she made us feel like valued guests, not just another booking. In a world where great service can be hit or miss, Tyra was the gold standard. She turned a lovely stay into a truly exceptional experience. The hotel should be proud to have someone of her calibre she’s a credit to the team! We’ll absolutely be back and we’ll be asking for Tyra
I was doing photos of the pool and just about to write a nice review but I went to look at the kettle, I swear people don't look inside these.. What is flaking off? I hear stories of certain races, putting underwear and boiling them, cooking noodles in them. I was just about to make myself a cup of tea. I'll pass. I'll never ever use a kettle in a hotel. Excellent service. Great location but this was super off-putting
Comfy bed and nice shower. Lots of charging ports and work space. Luis at the front counter was super nice. Six Acres was gorgeous and the buffet was delicious with amazing options. Unfortunately I did see some things I think could be improved on: My room had unclean cups and side tables. The gym is tiny and had only 3 hardened, old gym mats and a few machines, but they were very clean. Pool door closed an hour before stated closing time, was clean but the view was straight onto the street. Our room at least had a loud noise every-time someone in another room opened a door. Sounded really odd, and it would creak through our walls in a weird way - similar to if our door was opening, bit weird and uncomfortable.
We had a great stay. A special mention to Aaliyah — she was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Such a lovely person who really made us feel at home. Highly recommend!
[1] Unfortunately the lady at reception when we checked in made a mistake and i ended up being charged an extra $53 on top of the already high parking fee for one night! (Thankfully I was reimbursed some money but not until I had to stress out and call them about it). [2] our room smelt like someone had just taken a number 2 in the toilet when we first entered the room! [3] we found a sharp piece of plastic in the sheets of one of the beds! [4] the bin had no bag and it became a nuisance dealing with rubbish, we had bags of our own so we made do but it bothered me after '2 & 3'. [5] there was a large amount of some kind of fibres and dust the continually fell from the ventilation in the bathroom the entire time we were there! Location was great, staff were polite, and the buffet was incredible. Its just not a place I would recommend unless these problems we had were guaranteed not to happen again. Came across as lacking and possibly dangerous and unhealthy. To the RYDGES HOTEL FORTITUDE VALLEY I would seriously consider reaching out to me and working something out regarding our experience and putting more effort in at reception checking and room safety and cleanliness. I'm yet to see the return on my deposit for the room and will write another review after that or amend this one if the hotel contacts me to discuss this. As always I am transparent and honest. People make mistakes but this was a lot to try ignore.
