Almost Perfect – Great Experience Overall

We really enjoyed our stay at Rydges Camperdown. The location was perfect for our trip plans, and the staff were consistently friendly and welcoming. The breakfast buffet was great, and we especially appreciated the barista-made coffee. The beds were very comfortable, the hotel was quiet, and having convenient parking at a reasonable price was a big plus. The only downside was that, upon arrival, our baby girl found some trash under the desk and bed, which was a bit disappointing. Also, on one of the days, the bed was refreshed but not properly made—it felt like it was done in a rush or without much care. Overall, it was a positive experience, and we would still recommend the hotel for its location, comfort, and service.

The external of the building could definitely do with some cleaning and sprucing with the bricks and the front sign having some lights not working. Overall the stay was nice, quiet and convenient although we weren’t able to have dinner in the dining or a drink at the lounge as they were both closed on a Saturday night. Staff were friendly and welcoming and available the whole time for assistance if needed.

Airconditioning not working in our room. Only stayed for one night so didn't bother asking to change rooms as didn't have time, luckily has a window that winds open. Pool area needs refurb, water cold, very daggy, picture taken from flattering angle with props to make it look better than it is.

Overall our experiences at the hotel were great. The staff are amazing specially at the restaurant. Stewart was very helpful. Great service and work Ethic is tremendous. The location is good and lots of restaurants and dining close by. Foodstore or grocery is just beside the hotel. The only downside was the parking fee which is $35 a night. Should be $15 is fair I reckon. We had a good choice choosing the hotel for our 4 nights stay. Good value for money with buffet breakfast was GREAT!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I liked the simple, functional design of the room. I did not like moldy grout on the bathroom wall around the shower. I did not take the plethora of unpublished rules, such as limited times for ordering dinner. I did not like the fact that I paid for THREE days of parking but had to remove my car after 2.5 days or pay over $19 an hour for the remainder. I did not like the arrogant desk clerk when I was checking out who, instead of responding to my feedback, decided to give me a lecture. I will not be returning even though I have subsequent business to do at that same hotel. I will stay elsewhere.

Value for money option near the hospital

Hotel is in a convenient location for the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. Restaurants and cafes on King St, Newtown are a 10–15-minute walk away. There are also dining options and a mini supermarket just up the road. Our room was spacious, quiet, clean and reasonably well-appointed with a writing desk, chair and sofa. Bathroom had both standard and rain shower attachments. Bed was a tad soft. Parking is available for $35 per night, but it's a tight squeeze due to the spacing of pillars in the garage.

This property was about a 15 minute walk to kings street. Many options on that street for food and drinks. The pool was interesting to find and get to. The room was big and clean. The bed was a little too soft. Front staff needs to be more knowledgeable about the area and parking

Checked in at 2pm on Wednesday 26th March in a twin room for 2 nights. The check in experience was terrible, the male staff checking us in was cool, indifferent and should be working in customer service as we felt very unwelcome. They also neglected to tell us the compendium was accessed though a QR code with the key cards so we had to search the room for it, ring reception for the Wifi access and missed many of the services as we didn’t work out the QR code till checking out. On Thursday 27th we went out from 8am to 2pm with the sign on our door to have the room serviced. When we came back it wasn’t done so we figured it wasn’t going to happen and wanted a rest. At 3pm when we we’re resting a knock on the door woke us wanting to service the room. Definitely the worst Rydges have stayed at won’t be back. Interesting that I’m. Am a Rydges member but Last Minute was cheaper.
