We stayed at Rydges Bathurst for only one night on the 21/08/15. My wife & I were travelling with 3 teenage boys for soccer the next day. Once the two ladies, at the front desk, understood this they upgraded us to a much larger room without hesitation. They also suggested a great family pub for dinner were the food was excellent & the boys appetites were satisfied. These ladies were so friendly & accommodating. They made us feel so welcomed that we enjoyed our experience & haven't stop telling...

The two bedroom unit is perfect for any family small or large. Perfectly clean, spacious and comfortable with attentive staff. Only complaint was a 9pm phone call to my mobile during the stay from staff regarding a bad review she thought i had posted ( I didn't) which perhaps could have waited till checkout to discuss.
Other than that it was a lovely stay. I have already recommended it to friends and family

A great simple room and perfect location for us needing access to Mount Panorama.
Check in was without a human, but no drama as communication was perfect and simple.

Stayed 2 nights and found the hotel clean and staff extremely nice.
If I am in Bathurst for business I will definitely stay here.
Only downsight if you're a light sleeper a nearby train rumbling might wake you from time to time.

Return customer. I have stayed here a few times and I will be back. I have stayed in a few other places in Bathurst but for the price and quality, the Gold Panner is my go to place stay.

They went out of their way to accommodate my request to keep cold items in the fridge even after my checkout time. The communication is absolutely excellent, with hardly any wait time.
