The view from our apartment was magnificent.Staff changed our room upon our request as the room allocated was not in the area that we were accustomed to whilst staying at Rydges on other ocassions.That service was great. In our times there we have been a little disappointed in the menu offered.

Well decorated common areas but ageing rooms. Bed was sinking and too much street noise when on ground floor. TV did not work. Was not fixed for entire stay despite assurances. Suffered injury after being hit on the face by car park boom gate which doesn’t have a sensor.

Stayed on the ground level apartments. Great location but the rooms are very average to be nice. No air conditioning (that works or from this decade). Amenities really poor and bathroom terrible. Great location but if I had my time again I’d book another hotel.

It looks run down and cost a lot for very average conditions on the lake which was nice. About 750 meters from downtown

Standard room was more basic, on the 6th floor by restaurant, very loud hallway music, which was loud even in the room, only one power point in the room, would not book this room again, shame as other rooms and stays have been good.

Construction on site where I paid $25 a day for parking and didn't feel comfortable parking my Porsche there. My toilet was used in my room while we were out and the smell when we returned was unbearable. I do understand that people need to go when they need to go but not in a room that has guests in. Not acceptable
