    we had a lovely stay at rydges, where the staff were incredibly friendly and made sure we felt taken care of throughout our wedding. the location was perfect, just a brief stroll to the aqua park, and being in the city center meant we were close to plenty of restaurants and entertainment options. the room was quite spacious, and overall, we appreciated the effort the team put in to accommodate us.

    Couldn't ask for more! 😊.

    As a light sleeper, I loved the three-layer blinds that kept the room dark. the spacious layout and thoughtful furniture made my stay even better. the shower was refreshing, and the view of street life and fireworks from our room was a lovely bonus. the staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed, making it all feel very welcoming. Plus, the car park was easy and safe, and I could walk to everything!

    Felt totally relaxed; honestly, no complaints at all!

    location, and handy to all interests

    yes, the first interation with the reception desk, was very exasparating and drawn out. I provided my name and booking printout and the time it took to confirm the booking was very long. Since I had prepaid with my credit card three months prior, it was annoying. I was tired and had been travelling most of the day. As for the rest of the staff I found them all very helpful.
