Great location
We stayed in a superior king room, which was clean and very spacious. The hotel is located close to shopping and resturants in the CBD. It was a very nice 5 minute stroll into the city. We would stay again.

Just OK
It took three attempts to get a quiet room away from the lift and carpark - room was quiet. Bed quite hard and all the niceties missing - no toiletries like shower cap and no coffee machine in the room.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, When I booked, one of the deciding factors were that there wasn't a parking fee, then 2-3 days out from our arrival I received an email to say that you are now going to charge me a parking fee. This was not appreciated.

Modern comfortable hotel with good facilities
The Rydges is a tidy and modern hotel with very comfortable rooms and good restaurants and bars onsite. Parking is a bit of a lottery and given that it's not as centrally located as other hotels, most guests would have cars (as I did). I was asked to prebook and pay for parking which I did - but this does not guarantee a place. Also there was no record of my prepaid parking when I checked in.

Want to thank the night worker (big guy) that let us stay in the warm hotel at 3am in the morning instead of letting my wife and I sit outside in 4 degrees cold. He was kind enough to provide wifi password learning that we had made a booking but wasn't time for check-in yet Thanks. Hotel was awesome. And great service all round
