Was a bit disappointed. All bedding was to soft , and room was very noisy. Apart from the lovely lady when we checked out, staff never acknowledged us as we were coming and going over four days with a greeting of any type. Most unusual!

The beds were to soft. Charging $5 per tray for room service is ridiculous, the food was ok. The room needs upgrading especially for the price you pay.

Nice and close to everything. Staff at the restaurant and bar were incredibly helpful and friendly. Bedsheets poorly made upon arrival (appears to be just thrown together and not tucked in). Had to redo the bedsheets myself so we could sleep comfortably.

Happy with our stay at Rydges Geelong. Would be good if we could switch off the fan in the bathroom as it is alittle noisy overnight,even with the door shut.
