Rydges is a lovely little hotel situated on the harbour at Newcastle, accessible to the walking tracks headed out to Newcastle and Merewether Beaches. The valet parking was excellent, as was all other staff. The room was comfortable and well appointed. The pool area was a sun trap, very relaxing. Overall a very nice weekend away.

The suite was spacious and nicely set up, and the harbour views were terrific! My only issue was with parking as street parking availability is limited or expensive. As well as the current customer $35 service, the hotel should have an arrangement with the council whereby temporary parking permits at a nominal cost of say $20/d are provided to guests to use the nearby street parking sites.

The city view rooms, or at least the one I stayed in was very noisy. The traffic noise made it hard to sleep. For the price I had expected double glazed windows

Every aspect of our stay was exceptional. Staff were friendly and welcoming, to being informed of the complimentary buffet I wasn't aware was included, the spacious and well equipped room, comfortable bed, and easy valet service. Could not fault!

All good to great. Will always be back with them. (P.S : My car got a fresh scratch during the valet return, and hence curious what happened. Was it the basement parking?)
