6/10 Good

Good pool. Bad housekeeping
The good: the pool is extremely child-friendly and our children (3 and 6) played easily in it, plus the water play area was a huge hit. The bad: the daily room turning was not offered, apparently you need to ask for bin clearing and towel replacements, and if you want a proper room turn you need to pay extra. I believe with the cost of the accomodation, this should be included. Rydges is a nice enough brand, but this change (which has come in the last 9 months), feels budget and not on brand. The towel restrictions also felt budget.

Very disappointing. Food in the bistro was very poor. Especially the seafood pizza. We were expected to pay for an ice bucket of ice to take to our room. The alacarte resturant was expensive. The concierge was very helpful.

Family Haven
Wonderful family friendly accommodation, lots of family activites available including the pool and waterpark. Excellent location central to Hunter Valley Gardens (Xmas lights in summer), wineries, eateries, choc factories etc. Everyone enjoyed the breakfasts and the coffees - and the staff here were all particularly helpful and friendly.

We enjoyed our stay at Rydges, however our checkin was very slow. There were two people working with customers ( who took forever to get their room). We were next in line. A third person was working behind a desk. I thought they could have helped in checkin.
