The hotel's location and facilities were excellent, and the front desk service was also very good. The only downside was the slightly careless cleaning with hair in the bathroom and on the pillowcases really lowered our satisfaction level.

Booked a suite for over 1800, but the room facilities were quite dirty, especially the sofa and bathroom, which felt very basic. Even though the hotel had a high vacancy rate, they put us at the very end of a long, seemingly endless corridor. The most baffling part was on check-out day, before 9 AM, a cleaning staff member knocked on our door and asked us what time we were leaving. This was, without a doubt, the worst of the six hotels we stayed at during our Australia trip.

I booked room with sofa bed, and they have extra pillow and blanket for it. But, the smell is horrible, damp smell. Other than that I think this hotel has very good location, the staff is friendly

Great stay at Rydges Newcastle. Awesome location on the harbour. Close to beaches and with ample dining options right on your doorstep. The only let down was the buffet breakfast. Not a great selection of food, and the staff were totally overwhelmed with the breakfast crowd. Food was very slow to come from the egg station and tables were left unclean.

The stay was lovely. Rooms clean and spacious. Bathroom could do with upgrade the curtains on shower made floor slippery. The breakfast was okay. Tables were dirty and we had to request clean cutlery and quite a few things to be restocked. But they were busy.
