Rydges Hotels in Melbourne

We just got back from an amazing 5-night stay at Rydges Ringwood with our group of 8 rooms, and honestly, it was brilliant, everything went so smoothly. Tonya from the team was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was super responsive, genuinely helpful, and really went the extra mile to make sure we had exactly what we needed. The rooms were lovely and comfortable, the location is perfect, and the staff were always friendly and ready to help. Nothing was too much trouble. Thanks so much to Tonya and the whole team. 🙌

The location is genuinely great, right in Chinatown. Downstairs, you can find anything you want to eat. It's a perfect spot for Chinese tourists because you can get Chinese food anytime. If you need a convenience store, there's one right next door. You can also head to Chinatown for noodles in the morning. Across the street, there's a theater currently showing a Michael Jackson musical. You can check in online in advance; they'll send you an email. I checked in at the front desk, and the Indian guy was very friendly. They gave me a high-floor room. The room size isn't big, but it's just right for one or two people. The bed and pillows are comfortable, and it's very clean. However, there's no complimentary bottled water or slippers, which really surprised me. The bathroom also lacks a bath mat, so be careful when showering. Otherwise, everything else is pretty good. The gym isn't large, but the equipment is sufficient, with plenty of machines for compound training. I didn't opt for breakfast because there are so many food options downstairs, all within walking distance. The lobby bar on the ground floor is lively in the evenings. Overall, the price-performance ratio is excellent, but many things are minimalist, like the lack of slippers and water. The location is good, and the comfort level is adequate. So, if you prioritize price and location, this place is a solid choice.

The room was a little dim, but very spacious. We could connect our phones to the TV, which was great for the kids. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Outside, on the lawn, there were lots of parrots and even kangaroos, which made the kids very happy.
