Reviews for Rydges Hobart
Tassie Traveler
Wonderful service in all areas of the facility. Dinner menu a pleasant surprise with tasty choices. Breakfast is adequate and missing any variety when staying more than a couple nights. The lack of a sink to wash the provided dishes and a fridge, which required my defrosting, as well as poorly sealed room entry doors cost this wonderful hotel a star on rooms. Regardless, I will be back:)

The hotel has no lift. When I arrived I was asked if I was happy to have a room on the first floor. When I found there was no lift I said definitely no. There are also no trolleys to put your gear into to assist with moving. The restaurant is not open on Mondays! After the room was cleaned on the first day, the tea spoons and saucers had not been washed at all. We had breakfast on day 1. The hot food was almost cold, if I wanted eggs other than scrambled, I needed to pay $5 extra. The room service menu for dinner states that food is delivered in takeaway containers. Do not stay here. This site will give Rydges a bad name Further, please see the photos I have just added. These are taken after cleaning. It is seemingly ok to expect guests to pry and put away their own dishes. Note the fact that the surface clearly has not been wiped down

Room was spacious and clean. Great value. Beds are so comfy. Modern bathroom with double sink and walk-in shower. Even includes a microwave and a spectacular view of the courtyard. Breakfast was included and ample parking available. Heat pump was quiet and efficient. Big tv with good reception. Ai the receptionist was friendly and quick and even gave us a later checkout. We will definitely return to stay here whenever we come down to Hobart.
