Review by hotel critic
Nestled in the heart of Melbourne, my recent stay at Rydges offered a mixed bag of experiences. While the room left a bit to be desired with a view of neighboring buildings, the comfort of the bed was a saving grace amidst lackluster pillows. The cozy nooks in the lounge area and the inviting atmosphere added a touch of warmth to the modern décor of the hotel.The highlight of my stay undoubtedly was the tranquil rooftop pool. The heated waters provided a serene setting for a relaxing swim, offering solace from the city buzz below. The spa services were a rejuvenating retreat, allowing me to unwind and indulge in some much-needed pampering.The business facilities, including a convenient work desk and access to a business center, catered well to my professional needs during my stay. The option for yoga classes added a holistic touch to my wellness routine, complementing the fitness studio and outdoor pool available on-site.Rydges Melbourne provided a comfortable base for my urban getaway, with its central location and convenient amenities making for a pleasant stay.
