Very nice. The room is big. It's by the sea and not far from the beach. It's suitable for vacation.

The location is very good, right by the bay. I booked a bay view twin room. Although the facilities are old, they are well maintained. The room is quite large and the view is great! You can reach the Newcastle Museum; you can walk to Newcastle University and the old town in ten minutes. The surrounding environment is very good for leisure and vacation. You can reach the beach in half an hour There are restaurants, bars and cafes along the bay, including Japanese, Thai and Western food

I stayed there when I went to the factory. The central location is close to the sea, which is good. But there are some communication problems with the service 🙋

I booked room with sofa bed, and they have extra pillow and blanket for it. But, the smell is horrible, damp smell. Other than that I think this hotel has very good location, the staff is friendly

It is near the university and the bay, the environment is very good, the facilities are also quite good, the temperature is OK in winter, but the air conditioner is a bit noisy. The breakfast is not bad, and it is OK overall.

This is my third time there. Although the facilities are a bit old, they are well maintained and the location is also very good. There is a promenade by the harbor in front, where you can take a walk after dinner. The breakfast is also good.

Great stay at Rydges Newcastle. Awesome location on the harbour. Close to beaches and with ample dining options right on your doorstep. The only let down was the buffet breakfast. Not a great selection of food, and the staff were totally overwhelmed with the breakfast crowd. Food was very slow to come from the egg station and tables were left unclean.

The stay was lovely. Rooms clean and spacious. Bathroom could do with upgrade the curtains on shower made floor slippery. The breakfast was okay. Tables were dirty and we had to request clean cutlery and quite a few things to be restocked. But they were busy.

Hotel is in awesome location. The staff are excellent in all departments. The rooms are starting to look dated and tired. Need some TLC. The bathroom floors are grey and dirty in areas and lots of the timber panels in the rooms are starting to blister and have paint falling of them.
