“Perfectly reasonable hotel”

Reviewed May 23, 2013 NEW

I've stayed at the Rydges Albury a couple of times for business. Both the rooms I had were clean and tidy. Nothing fancy but nor did it promise to be. I thought both rooms I had were of a decent size and the bathroom was spotless. I agree with other reviews that a facelift wouldn't hurt but honestly for the... More

“Centre of Albury - a nice place to stay”

Reviewed May 10, 2013

Rydges Albury is situated in the heart of Albury City - walking distance from almost all restaurants, eateries, and shopping outlets, including the fashion outlets. It has off street parking, however it is not undercover. It has security cameras for added security. The hotel is directly opposite the Commercial Club, a great venue for entertainment and dinner/bistro options. We had... More

It’s always pleasing to read such great feedback; the hotel staff gets a real buzz from such positive reviews. And while we acknowledge we don’t always get things right and yes the hotel rooms would benefit from a facelift (which hotel wouldn’t!) we also pride ourselves on our customer service and we know we offer great value. So many thanks... More

“Spacious and quiet family room. Superb buffet breakfast!”

Reviewed May 5, 2013

We shared a family room, and a great bonus was kids had their own beds! The room was spacious, and very quiet. The bathroom was a little dated but large, and had a shower over the bath. We scored a deal which included 4 buffet breakfasts for a nominal charge, and the breakfast was suberb! Enjoyed a lovely dinner at... More

Thanks for your comments Daisy, it’s much appreciated. The Family rooms are great value with the queen and two singles, most properties are unable to accommodate this room configuration due to the lack of space but as you mentioned we have very spacious rooms. Great to hear you enjoyed the full buffet breakfast, it does offer a wide variety of... More

“Good service but in need of a facelift!”

Reviewed May 1, 2013

Stayed here overnight on a business trip in April. The staff are very attentive and helpful. This is quite a large hotel for the area but in need of some rennovations. The wait for the elevators was always agonisingly long and this was in part due to how slow they moved between the floors. The room itself was a decent... More

Thanks for taking the time to post a review. I’m pleased that you found the team helpful, attentive and committed as this is what we strive for. The Hotel rooms would benefit from a facelift and we look forward to that day as this would complement the spacious rooms we already have as you mentioned. We have upgraded most of... More

A good stay at Rydges. The hotel is a bit old but has everything you need. It is right in the middle of Albury and walking distance to all the local restaurants and shops.

We went for a wedding and ordered room service consisting on something which would be fast to eat. We ordered a steak sandwich and tomato and cheese toasted sandwich.

Thanks for your comments Martha, The location is fantastic, very central to everything without the high traffic noise that normally goes with it.
