I stayed here for a conference in Adelaide. I was a bit disappointed initially at the small size of the room when I had upgraded from the standard room. No bath either. Also the room entry key was playing up, I had to go back down to the reception two times, not good at 11.30 at night after a tiring... More

Easy location, to get to with parking at rear, good size room, TV bar fridge tea and coffee in room, good size comfy bed, shower only fair. Noisy room due to traffic on Anzac highway if facing south. Breakfast good but painfully slow, took almost an hour to be served at table.

Our recent stay was neat and tidy with everything you could expect for a Rydges motel. The restaurant has excellent choices, however the very cramped gym did not make for a very good workout. The rooms were a bit tired and due for a refit soon. The car parking was excellent and unexpected for a CBD stay.

Family room spacious, in general very clean and bathroom was excellent. There were no mugs and the first glass was dirty, however, this was immediately rectified by contacting reception. Bed extremely comfortable. Happy to stay again.

Our room was spacious, well-appointed and very comfortable. However, the so called free Wi-Fi was pathetic. I was using a tablet so couldn't connect to the broadband and the Wi-Fi signal kept coming up as "out of range". Even on the ground floor the signal was weak. The advertised free Wi-Fi was one of the selling points that contributed to... More

Thank you for bringing these issues to my attention. I, personally check about five random rooms per day and very rarely find these sorts of things in our rooms. I will ensure that our Executive Housekeeper is also aware of these so she can be checking for this as well. I have recently received a few mentions about the WIFI... More

On arriving at the Rydges we were upgraded to a large corner spa room which sounded better that it looked. It was very spacious with a comfortable bed but the furnishings etc were quite tired and the large windows rather grubby.

Great to read that you enjoyed the upgraded standard room and the location of the hotel. We are currently renovating bathrooms on our first two floors and receiving fantastic feedback about them. I apologise for the windows being grubby. I have recently employed someone to clean balconies and windows and I guess it's like the harbour bridge, once you get... More

Thank you for bringing the issue with the air conditioner to my attention. It is definitely a focus on our preventative maintenance lists and something we are working through on an on-going basis. Unfortunately, the second carpark, although attached to the hotel, does not belong to us and cannot be used during the week. I will be speaking with my... More
