    The hotel had a very central position close to Nobbys & Newcastle, near many restaurants on the wharf and a taxi. The breakfast was substantial and particularly good, we were provided with making pancakes and free bottled water.

    Rydges Newcastle is a gorgeous and fairly clean place to stay with accommodating and exceptionally kind staff at the reception desk. The hotel is in a very central location on the harbor in Newcastle.

    Well presented hotel with an amazingly helpful team at the reception desk. Separate lounge and lounge area in the room, along with a comfortable bed. Perfect, awesome breakfasts with real espresso coffee and beverages in paper takeaway cups. Peaceful central location, very close to shopping areas and Nelson Bay.

    Nicely appointed hotel with a delightful view of the harbor. Top-class staff at the reception desk. Light-filled and decent-sized room. Private parking close to the property. Good wifi is provided. Magnificent setting in a very relaxing area. Adjacent to bars, restaurants, and cafes. Harbour Bar nearby is a great place to chill out. The lounge bar offers reasonably priced drinks.

    The hotel is excellent. Very upmarket and spotlessly clean. The staff were all extremely professional, courteous and nothing was too much trouble to ensure our stay was comfortable and pleasant.

    That the wi-fi services incur a cost. Considering that most places we have stayed in the past include this as part of the room rate, I would expect that wi- fi services are free, or at the very least, partly free up tp a certain percentage of data used.

    The rooms were a little out of date

    Staff very friendly and most helpful.

    Had to call the staff twice to fix the TV and to fix the bath. This was disappointing given the cost of the rooms.

    The king suite was high quality and well-maintained. The in-house restaurant served delicious dishes, and the breakfast was substantial. The hotel is centrally located near fantastic restaurants with sea views.
