Rydges is within walking distance of many of the South Canberra attractions - the galleries, Kingston and Manuka. When we walked in the interior smelled beautiful and the new bar and restaurant area ( only half is open at the moment) is beautifully done. The rooms are spacious and the check in staff allowed us extra time to check out so that we could fit in a game of tennis at the Parliament House courts. I'd stay here again.
