Review by hotel critic
Rydges Geelong exceeded my expectations during my recent stay. The check-in staff were incredibly friendly, making me feel welcome right from the start. The room itself was comfortable with the plush Rydges Dream Bed ensuring a restful night's sleep. Although the carpet could have been cleaner, the overall cleanliness of the hotel was commendable.The location in the city center was ideal, allowing me easy access to shops, restaurants, and the main beach. The dining facilities at Nautica Pool Bar and Kitchen were a highlight, offering delicious food at reasonable prices. The pool area was lovely and well-maintained, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. The hotel's modern amenities, such as the gym and pool, added to the overall experience. The proximity to East Beach and other local attractions like Kardinia Park and the Geelong Botanic Gardens made it the perfect base to explore the area.I highly recommend Rydges Geelong to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay in Geelong. Whether you're a solo traveler like me or visiting with family and friends, this hotel offers something for everyone.
