For a Rydges chain hotel, this is very disappointing. If you forget that it's Rydges, then it is average - slightly better than a motel. The rooms are mostly clean but tired and showing obvious signs of wear. The grounds have great potential to be beautiful, but they aren't kept well. The pool looks great - but it was too... More

The staff here did their best with the tired infrastructure.Rooms need a serious upgrade.Whilst my stay was acceptable the room was tired and needing an upgrade. The restaurant meals also were adequate if a little unimaginative. Again the friendly and helpful staff helped. Breakfast was also OK but again was a little unimaginative. some more signage in the grounds is... More

We had stayed here previously and the service then had been excellent. We decided to stay again for one week this time while we were locating a rental in Canberra because of the lovely service, affordability, fabulous reception and food and beverage staff, facilities and location. The bed in the room is comfortable, the bathroom was clean and the parking... More

We booked a 2 bedroom apartment, and we stayed for 2 nights. I booked this on a 25% off sale that Rydges where having. I loved the location, the surroundings where in the country, but only 10 mins from the city centre. The rooms where big, We had breakfast one morning and that was ok. Staff where very friendly. I...

We recently stayed in a 2 room apartment,, that sleeps 4. It come complete with a kitchenette and bathroom. We found the rooms to be clean and value for money. The resort is located around 6km from canberra city.I really like the fact that the resort is spread out with natural bushland between groups of rooms/ apartments. I found the... More

Stayed one night as 4th of 4 night break with family in Canberra due to other accom options being so expensive for that particular night (hotel for previous nights increased from $225 to $345) so chose REHR with eyes wide open considering other tripadvisor feedback. Firstly no issues with staff who were all friendly and engaging! Secondly facilities seemed ok... More

We only stayed 1 night, and found that for the price it was only average. On arrival check in was quick and easy. Decided that $24 for each device that we wanted to use wifi with was way too expensive. When we arrived at our room there was a pile of dirty dishes on the next doorstep that stayed there... More

Affordable accommodation right on the nsw/act border, approx. 6kms from Canberra. Upon booking there was much confusion about the online prices with the website not being able to book a room at a different rate for consecutive nights. To avoid being charged the wrong price we needed to make separate booking, thus ended up with two separate rooms as a... More

On the positive side - rooms were mostly clean, beds were comfortable. But the whole place is neglected, in dire need of some maintenance. Tiles missing on bathroom walls, pot-holes in the driveway, surrounding gardens full of weeds, the door inbetween our adjoining rooms hadn't been attached correctly, and wouldn't close. Rydges should be embarrassed by this resort, and if... More
