Amazing Service, close to exhibition centre and train station. Rooms were really nice and very clean. would definitely stay here again

Very comfortable room with a great view.

Have regularly stayed in all the Brisbane Rydges Hotels, however our overnight on Friday 12 October at Southbank was one of our most memorable. Smooth check-in and check-out and bonus upgrade allowed us to experience a suite which was just fabulous. The room presentation, decor, provisions, appearance was very impressive; so much so we just had to open that bottle of bubbles in the fridge to celebrate our arrival and our upgrade.

Great location, good size rooms. As we had an interconnected room we unfortunately had noisy neighbours who would come back to room late each night and talk loudly. Not Rydges fault but something to keep in mind. Housekeeping very friendly but we found front reception to be abrupt and not friendly.The first day we checked in, I went to open the sliding wardrobe and the wheel came off and door fell towards me. Fortunately it wasn’t my kids! I called immediately, reception said they would send maintenance but no one ever came. On check out -reception tried to charge me for a takeaway cup from mini bar, no idea what this was, and def did not take or use one. I didn’t appreciate reception tone or insinuating I had taken it. We will stay at Novotel or Mantra again but won’t stay at this Rydges.

I was really disappointed tbh. My partner and I regularly stay at hotels in Brisbane for weekends away and Rydges was by far the most disappointing experience. The check in was average and we only received one discount drink card which we later went to use at the bar and was advised promptly by a little upstart serving at the bar that we could only get one free drink ... we then had dinner in the cafe downstairs near the bar area and purchased the most saddest looking cheese platter for $20 with I dried fig and 3 shrivelled up apricots and not even remotely enough crackers to eat with the cheese. Check out was just as bad... our car seemed to not arrive and then the concierge appeared to get testy at my partner and I .. as if it were somehow our fault. $40 for parking overnight as well!! Then the 3 men working in the valet parking area watched as I carried 3 big bags to my vehicle without any of them even so much as offering to help. Overall very disappointed with my experience. It’ll be the last time I stay there.

I couldn't fault our stay at Rydges in South Bank. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Staff were all friendly and helpful. We had a slight hiccup at the end of our stay when our car battery was flat and the staff were more than helpful, they looked after us and sorted out the problem. Thank you.

Service was good, concierge was very good. I normally do not complain about minor details, however on this occasion, I have a gripe for a number of reasons. Firstly the room allocated to me on the first floor beside the pool and entertainment area was very unacceptable to me. I had a choice to stay elsewhere for less money than the fees you were charging me on this visit and I was given the worst room available (location wise), The following day I asked if I could be moved to another area of the hotel away from the pool and entertainment area and was told by your front desk person (can't remember her name) that I would have to pay an additional $40 a night. I found this unacceptable considering I stay there 3 to 4 nights every month and have been doing so for a number of years, let alone staying at your affiliate hotels around the country. My working day starts with me having to rise about 5:00 a.m. and being a reasonably light sleeper, all the noise emanating from the entertainment area till 12:00 midnight kept me awake. My stay is for business not a holiday. My preference in my profiles is for a quiet room. On this occasion I did not get a quiet room and your staff member did not attempt to adequately accommodate a loyal and long serving customer. Most disappointed. Regards George.

I actually have nothing else to say. My stay in the hotel was great!

Unfortunately, only stayed one night but would have loved to have stayed longer. Great service, very spacious room (received an upgrade to a junior suite) with an amazing view of Brisbane. The room had all the amenities you could want and a most comfortable bed. Will definitely come back again!

My wife and I stay at Rydges at south brisbane on a regular basis as she has medical appointments on the terrace in Brisbane we have found Rydges very handy, close to railway, and we get looked after very well

Amazing hotel very friendly staff exceptional service by all team members Highly recommend the hotel to everyone! Will definitely be coming back.

Great rooms, lovely decor and the staff are very friendly & helpful. The bar & bistro serves a good range of food, great spot for casual meetings. Location location as they say - can’t be beaten. Will be returning.

The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Great location when arriving by airport link train- just remember that it’s better to get off at South Brisbane and not South Bank. Close to a huge variety of eateries, South Bank parklands itself and the theatre complex- you don’t need a car and even the city is only a 15 min walk across the river.

I want to thank the receptionist for being able to find me a room for me way before my check-in time. I was tired and needed to get ready for the conference that we had with Sanofi in your hotel. Sorry I can' remember her name but I am sure you've the details of the person that served me. Thanks so much

3 friends of 45 years revisiting their teenage times by attending "Beautiful. The Carol King Story". Rydges South Bank made it memorable with a fabulous room, exceptional service and the perfect location for QPAC. Pre theatre Champagne in Soleil, the roof top bar was an excellent way to start. Albeit a little chilly the numerous heaters made for a cosy experience. A 5 minute walk had us at the show with time to spare. Walking home saw us having a nightcap in a bar close to the hotel. Quite a few in this buzzing area. Breakfast was outstanding! So many choices with friendly staff bringing your freshly made coffee. Thank you for our tasting plate of handmade chocolates to commemorate our " Beautiful" experience. All 3 of us have now changed our previous Brisbane hotels to Rydges as our destination in the CBD. We will be most definitely recommending it to family & friends

All berg except for the quality of the food at breakfast. It was pathetic.

One of the best and most comfortable hotels I’ve stayed in. The staff are great and the Junior Suite we stayed in was roomy and had a fantastic veiw of Brisbane river and the city. The beds are also super comfortable and the mini kitchen is a nice touch.

This is my first stay at Ridges, and possibly the nicest hotel I've ever stayed at. Not only is the accommodation first class, the staff and management were delightful.

Fantastic comfortable rooms, great service. Totally recommend a stay.

I stay here whenever I'm in Brisbane, and it never disappoints. Great for business and leisure, due to proximity to CBD and Southbank. Front of house staff are professional, helpful and swift with car parking and check-in. Rooms are modern and very comfortable.

In the heart of South Brisbane, next to all theatres etc...city beach a couple of minutes walk. Plenty of food options within walking distance. Rooms very comfortable and modern with comfy beds. public transport to take you into Brisbane by either train or bus. Room rates are in line with other accommodation options in area.

Rydges Southbank is my favorite hotel in Brisbane. I stay there regularly and it is like a second home. The front office staff are most welcoming and the welcome note from the General Manager is very much appreciated. I look forward to my next stay at the end of the month.

Travelled to Brisbane for conference at Brisbane Exhibition Centre and the Rydges Hotel was ideally located next door. Easy check in, comfortable room and good breakfast selection provided for enjoyable stay. Good selection of places to eat and drink in hotel and Southbank surrounds, and river short walk away. Overall enjoyable stay

Travelled to Brisbane for a concert at the Exhibition Centre and stayed here for 2 nights in a river view room. Fantastic location for restaurants and sightseeing. Had breakfast in the hotel cafe downstairs both days and thought it was great value. Brisbane CBD is a 20 minute walk across the river and we spent the day walking the whole CBD & Southbank areas. The river view room was modern, clean and very quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Loved the great room and views. Will definitely be staying here again .

My wife and I left the Rydges Southbank absolutely revived. We loved our stay because of everything Rydges had to offer. From relaxing at the pool side bar to breaky at the cafe (not to mention the great room and view). Thanks Rydges for a great break

I rented two rooms for myself, daughter and grandson. The rooms were very comfortable and we had a nice view from the 11th floor. Great location in Southbank. My grandson enjoyed the big park and swimming lagoon, my daughter and I enjoyed the local restaurants and the hotel is within walking distance of the Lyric Theatre where we say Aladdin and the museums. I plan to stay there again in July when my husband and I see Beautiful

Myself and my son who is confined to a motorised wheelchair can’t speak highly enough of this hotel. We have stayed here for many years as my son often has medical appointments requiring stays in the city. The staff bend over backwards to ensure that we always have the best possible stay. Nothing is too much trouble, they have even assisted in helping me to fix my sons wheelchair and the various equipment that he requires. The wheelchair accessible room is very spacious, the bathroom is terrific and the staff even switch out the bed legs to enable my sons hoist to fit under the bed. We had a family wedding to attend a couple of years ago over the north side of Brisbane and concierge even organised a wheelchair accessible vehicle through their chauffeur service to transport us there and back! Nothing is ever too much trouble and we would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who may have limited mobility or special needs, we can’t speak highly enough and always look forward to returning! We recommend this hotel and their staff at every opportunity.

Our recent stay (22nd April) to celebrate our 40th Anniversary was simply great! Well appointed room with great views of the city and in an ideal location. And although very busy staff in all departments where very polite, friendly and helpful. Special mention the front desk lady's on checkout for the way in which they handled an issue with a gift sent by a friend to help us celebrate. Handled very professionally and much appreciated by all concerned. This Hotel is highly recommended for business and pleasure.

The staff are very happy to assist us with inter-connecting rooms for our family stay. Beautiful spacious rooms and great service. Thanks

If you require a well appointed room for 2 Adults and 1 Granddaughter (11) you can not go past the Junior Suite. These rooms have been refurbished to a high standard. Being so close to QPAC it is hard to stay anywhere else at Southbank.

Talk about Luxury! Upon arrival an attendant parks your car and helps with your luggage, which is followed by a very welcoming reception that couldn't be any more helpful! The accommodation can not be faulted and the atmosphere is excellent! The flexibility of being able to order dinner after an event at 1130pm is faultless! For these reasons and many more we love staying at the Rydges!

We needed a room at very short notice and one was prepared quickly and happily even though they had been fully booked. The room was fresh, clean and very comfortable.

Stayed in a spacious beautifully appointed junior suite for a night. Efficient check in/out. Lovely function room event and bar by the poolside. Recommend stay at Rydges when in Southbank!

Great place to stay, I highly recommended this place.

This is the second time that I have stayed at the Rydges South Bank hotel. The staff are always friendly and helpful, the pool and pool bar was very relaxing, sufficient gym, spa and sauna area and good food options for lunch and dinner. The rooms are spacious, modern, and the bed was very comfortable. On my first stay early to mid 2017, I thought that the breakfast buffet had some Asian noodles and some other hot dishes besides the normal hot breakfast, however the breakfast this time was still very good, especially the bacon. I will definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a hotel conveniently located to all areas of Brisbane whether it is for business or on holidays. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and had 2 business colleges stay on Monday the 16th as well and this was based on my first stay in 2017. Thanks and I look forward to my next stay at this fantastic hotel. Kind regards, Matt D.
