Rooms presented as very neat and tidy. Bathrooms were also very clean.
Beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. Air con was a bit noisy, during sleep.

The staff were very accommodating and the location was convenient for RPA. The room was huge and quiet. The bed however needs upgrading.... on one side i was constantly feeling like i was rolling off. I think the side wall of the bed was stuffed. The shower was the worst i have EVER used. It was like a watering can being poured over my head. No water pressure at all. Finally the blanket that was supplied had seen better days. Was frayed and thread bare. I thought Rydges was synonymous with quality. It was quite disappointing. I should finally mention the quality of the meals and the extent of the menu in the restaurant was no better than a local pub. I really expected more.

Surprising
1) no milk capsules in fridge to make a coffee in the morning
2) toilet not fully clean
3) no hot chocolate as part of complementary (not a huge deal, but i just felt like a hot chocolate - again no milk capsules in fridge!)
Electronics/room itself definately upgraded since I was last here though,

RPA visit
If you have a RPA appointment, this hotel is perfectly placed, a brief walk .
We were in the disability room, so the bathroom room was extra spacious. The room was well set out with plenty of space. The bed was huge and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and polite. The only negatives - the room was a bit knocked around and there is not much choice for dinner at night close by.

It is a nice hotel and the staff is nice, but they don’t have internet at this hotel. it is serviced off site somehow and it doesn’t work properly. We spent hours with the front desk trying to get it to work with no luck. I was there for 3 nights and no internet. I feel like a major hotel chain should have it on site as this is a very important amenity every hotel should have

The service was impeccable. In particular the front desk service from Sagar Thaba. When I mentioned Sagar to other staff everyone spoke affectionately of him - which showed to me that there is a good, respectful culture at Rydges Camperdown. I was impressed.
