What our guests say about their stay
Jacqui Gillan 5 months ago
Recently stayed for a conference I was attending in the hotel. Over all it was a great experience, valet parking, luggage storage, easy check in, prompt in-room dining - there is an option to waive housekeeping for a $10 discount on food and dining. Easy access power points at the bedside. Clean. Great range of pillows to choose from. The down side was I couldn't get the room cool enough and it was a west facing room. The sofa also had no spring in it so it was uncomfortable to sit on. Lift was out of order upon departure - tricky carrying luggage down the stairs, I was on the 2nd floor. But I would stay again.
Response from the owner 5 months ago Dear Jacqui, Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay during the conference and appreciated the convenience of our valet parking, dining options, and in-room amenities. We’re sorry to learn about the temperature and sofa comfort issues, as well as the lift outage during your departure, your feedback helps us improve for future stays. It’s wonderful to know these didn’t deter you from wanting to return, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon for an even more comfortable experience. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

A beautiful hotel with a really nice feel. Our kids loved the pool, although the slide stopped working after our first night. We stayed in a city side with balcony and the decor was fresh and updated, as was the bathroom.. it was lovely even without the view of Harbour. Unfortunately, our room service was missed twice and after calling to check, they were able to get it to us in the next 15 mins. Still a 5 star review as we didn't want to leave.
Response from the owner 5 months ago Dear A Hofman, Thank you for the 5 star review, we can not wait to welcome you back again. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

I cannot fault Rydges Newcastle in any way at all. Superb location!! I had an early morning walk up to Nobbies Beach to greet the day and a delicious buffet breakfast upon my return. It's an easy walk into Hunter & Darby streets for a night out or shopping. The slide at the pool is heaps of fun and a little train takes you along Honeysuckle Precinct for a nominal fee. The rooms were very comfortable and I found the sliding privacy doors between the bedroom and lounge a thoughtful addition for the night owl and the early to bed type. It would be an absolute pleasure to stay here again.
Response from the owner 3 months ago Dear Fiona, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed our superb location and were able to start your day with a walk to Nobbys Beach followed by our buffet breakfast that sounds like the perfect morning. It’s great to know you made the most of the Honeysuckle Precinct, the pool slide, and even the little train! We’re also pleased you found the room comfortable and appreciated the sliding privacy doors — they really are designed with different sleep schedules in mind. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we would be absolutely thrilled to welcome you back for another stay at Rydges Newcastle in the future. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

I stayed here a few months ago for a friend's wedding. While the hotel shows its age a bit, that actually means you get much larger room and bathroom sizes compared to modern hotels, which made the stay very comfortable. The staff were absolutely wonderful—truly top-notch service. The bed was spacious and cozy, providing a great night's sleep. One of the highlights was waking up and taking a stroll along the beach right in front of the hotel
Response from the owner 3 months ago Dear Seonyeong, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the generous room and bathroom sizes and found them comfortable, those extra touches really do make a difference. It’s also wonderful to know our team made such a positive impression; providing warm, attentive service is something we take great pride in. We’re thrilled you had a great night’s sleep and were able to enjoy the beachside location, there’s nothing quite like starting the day with a walk along the shore. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back again in the future, whether for another special occasion or a relaxing getaway. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

A brilliant hotel, perfect for families. You can order food and drinks to the pool, and the staff went to extra effort to ensure my son was welcome and stuff to do - handing him an activity pack when we ate at the restaurant and giving him a plush toy whale which he loved. Food in the restaurant was beautifully presented and flavoursome. Great location, very reasonably priced. Would gladly stay here again
Response from the owner 3 months ago Dear Ben, Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad to hear you had a great experience. Your support means a lot to us, and we look forward to serving you again soon. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

Great hotel with beautiful harbour views and well located in Newcastle so you can easily walk to restaurants. There was a sign saying they are upgrading the rooms and to be fair, it’s needed. The rooms do feel dated but the bed was so comfortable and the shower - while we were dubious when seeing the old shower head - had wonderful pressure. The pool and water slide were an absolute hit. Staff were friendly.
Response from the owner 3 months ago Dear L P , Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed our harbour views, central Newcastle location, and found the bed and shower so comfortable — we’re especially glad the pool and waterslide were a highlight! We appreciate your honest comments regarding the rooms feeling dated. As you noticed, we are in the process of upgrading our rooms, and feedback like yours reinforces the importance of these improvements. It’s wonderful to hear our friendly staff made a positive impression, and we hope to welcome you back in the future to experience one of our refreshed rooms. Warm Regards, Guest Services Team

I attended your restaurant for the first time for lunch Sunday 11/1/2026 From the minuet we walked in the service was absolutely fantastic. Meal was amazing, steak melt in your mouth. Dessert to die for! To top off the experience, young woman who looked after us - Ellen, she was absolutely fabulous. I have not stopped talking about our experience. Keep up the great work!!
