We loved our stay at Rydges. But having the same items at breakfast for 3 days in a row was boring. I wish they had a bit of a change around of the breakfast foods at the buffet.Otherwise it was a pleasant and enjoyable stay.

Room advertised had a water view. Actual room had a street view opposite a large lit billboard. Misrepresentation about parking. Sent to parking building, car was robbed with window smashed. Advertised as 'parking available'. Staff informed 'parking must be booked'. I will never book through Wot If again.

The room was a good size with a nice view of the harbour. Very comfortable beds. Room was a bit noisy with single glazed windows and thin walls.
