North Stradbroke Island Holidays from AU$498

Whilst the property is of an older style, it is generally well maintained, clean and tidy. My room, whilst small, was much as I expected. It was quiet, very tidy with comfortable bed and one of the best showers I have had in a motel. Would happily stay there when I. Brisbane.

One of The main reason for booking this place was the view and half of the view was blocked by a broken curtain that was 3/4 way down and couldn’t move it up or down. Also some amenities that were promised in the listing weren’t in the place such as laundry soap, sponge, and paper towels. Not such a big deal but we arrived late so had to wait until next day to buy the stuff. Weren’t very response the hosts. I told them about these problems and a couple others with no solution. 2 cooking pans scratched and not really usable. Moved a bed and was very dirty below the bed as well. For the price point I would expect better service and quality.

Just a lovely experience in a large, well appointed room and modern bathroom.

Hotel was quiet and spacious. But wifi was terrible and room needs to be refurbished. But main concern was with check-in: it would have saved a great deal of stress and confusion if we’d been told the check-in procedures before beginning our trip - at least a day in advance. As it was, we arrived at the hotel with reception closed, no wifi, no phone linked to a local network. We were lucky to even get into the lobby. It was only through some creativity we were able to find out how to access our room key, and after a stressful period of uncertainty. This was not a good start to our stay.

Rydges South Bank is a very good hotel that is in a great location. The room are standard but clean and comfortable - we really liked the balcony with excellent views of the city. We would come back.
