I stayed at Rydges Queenstown on 7th January. The staff who were working at the reception was very arrogant. She didnt really want to help me or answer my question. I never met this kind of receptionist in any hotel over the world.

Nice location and ok hotel
Pleased with the choice of hotel being the peak season as easily walkable to the centre. They had a problem it seems with the previous guests so the carpet was wet and being disinfected. Not their fault. But not so pleasant for us. The bathroom and hotel are a bit tired. Could do with a freshen up.

The view was amazing. Shops, bars, restaurants and tourist attractions all nearby. The staff were very professional. We didnt expect to get our room made up and fresh towels on Christmas day, it was completed when we went out for a walk.

The view from our apartment was magnificent.Staff changed our room upon our request as the room allocated was not in the area that we were accustomed to whilst staying at Rydges on other ocassions.That service was great. In our times there we have been a little disappointed in the menu offered.

Well decorated common areas but ageing rooms. Bed was sinking and too much street noise when on ground floor. TV did not work. Was not fixed for entire stay despite assurances. Suffered injury after being hit on the face by car park boom gate which doesn’t have a sensor.

Stayed on the ground level apartments. Great location but the rooms are very average to be nice. No air conditioning (that works or from this decade). Amenities really poor and bathroom terrible. Great location but if I had my time again I’d book another hotel.

It looks run down and cost a lot for very average conditions on the lake which was nice. About 750 meters from downtown
