Short stay in Geelong
It was a short break. My son loved the swimming pool and the bar service was amazing. Room was a bit dated but very clean. Loved all the facilities and within walking distance of great restaurants and waterfront. Staff was lovely

Good stay, again
Stayed here before for work so had no issue booking again. We enjoyed the bar area for a social drink with friends and the buffet breakfast in the morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, our stay was pretty bloody good. However, we had one issue, I booked parking and arrived to be told that there was no parking available as they were full. Our room overlooked the car park, and this was not the case. On checking out they attempted to charge me for parking as it was included on my booking, needless to say I was bemused. But I learnt that on the weekends there is a lot of free parking on the street so save yourself a round of drinks and park on the street. The Rydges did not disappoint, and would we stay again, that is a yes.
