Great location, walkable to trams and lots of nearby dining options. Rooms are clean and spacious, we were impressed with the additional space in the living room and bedroom can be closed off to provide extra privacy. Staff are all courteous and very helpful. One of the best Rydges we have stayed at so far.

Tourist in our own city

First time staying at this hotel and was totally surprised and amazed that I haven’t booked or stayed here. The room was spacious and very comfy. The buffet breakfast was delicious, plenty of choices and cheap compared to other hotel we’ve stayed in. The pool area was on a small size but it’s big enough to sun bake. The bar area on the second floor was a great place to relax and enjoy a cheeky cocktail or two. Overall, had a really great time and will definitely book this place again.
