Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

When we are Brisbane we often stay at Rydges in South Brisbane. The beds are wonderful and its close location to the South Bank area. Unfortunately our last stay on Saturday 18th May had a disappointing aspect. My husband booked the hotel and for a change chose one of the hotel's packages "The Showstopper". The package included accommodation, valet parking... More

“Noisy”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

Fantastic location and have stayed here before. Not sure if it was just one of those times but each night it was extremely noisy. First couple of nights very loud guests returning to their rooms, and deciding to hold conversations between the rooms. Another night lots of banging. Haven't experienced this before. Breakfast is great and dinner is fabulous. We... More

“Great location, staff and rooms”

Took my mum here for a surprise Mother's Day overnight stay. Stayed in a Queen deluxe room with city/river views (floor 11) - good sized room and balcony for us to enjoy cheese and wine. Staff were all friendly and helpful and room was well maintained. Buffet breakfast at Bacchus restaurant was great - the pancake machine is a highlight!... More

“Worth the indulgence”

Reviewed 11 May 2013

Decided to treat ourselves the Suite Decadence Package & it is so worth it! Staff, food, room, service, everything of top quality standard. It is a bit of a cost just for 1 night but the late checkout of 1pm & the grand breakfast delivered by room service definitely makes you feel so special! The King size bed was so... More

The hotel staff were all fabulous, especially as we arrived at 10am - after a long flight - and were given the keys to our room (as one was available). An upgrade to a... More

“Great location”

Spent a few nights here due to a work conference. Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Room was clean and comfortable if not just a little overpriced for lack of view and no balcony. Main complaint was the breakfast buffet was really just average at best. Would I stay here again.?Probably.

We had a great short stay close to family and appreciated the staff attitude and flexibility about check-in and check-out times - we also enjoyed the easy access to the restaurants, galleries and theatres nearby.Room service was a bit slow and breakfast was clearly priced for business travellers, but all in all a lovely hotel.
