Brisbane, Australia
Jul 15, 2008

The reception area was devoid of people when we entered: a big, cold, empty space. When we stood at the counter for a minute or so, a young lady appeared. Our check in was very professional and pleasant but, unfortunately, we were assigned a room that the housekeepers had just commenced making ready. This was in spite of the fact... more

I stayed at Rydges Eagle Hawk with my partner for a romantic getaway and I have to say that it was truly amazing, never had we felt more relaxed and refreshed. Upon arrival I was greeted with a friendly smile from the girl at the desk who gave clear instructions of where we needed to go. We were staying in... more

After reading reviews for this hotel I must admit I wa considering cancelling my booking. I'm glad I didn't. I'm not sure which hotel the previous guests were reviewing but it certainly wasn't Rydges Eagle Hawk. Check in was pleasant and fast. Forms were already filled out with booking details -name address phone number - all I had to do... more

Dear "Getawayfor2", Thank you for taking the time to provide this great feedback in regards to your recent visit to Rydges Eagle Hawk Resort. Rydges Eagle Hawk Resort has gone through a major refurbishment in the last year and the property is looking great. Over the last year the team at the resort have made several changes to ensure the...

Ok, I promise to keep this short. People seem to enjoy writing enormous tomes about their problems with hotels. This hotel was a last choice, as my booked accomodation was so awful, I left. This is place has hoardings up on the highway saying 'Now 4 Star Rated'. Makes you wonder what is was before. Check in: reception staff was... more

Dear "Wisend-Traveller", Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback in regards to your recent visit to Rydges Eagle Hawk Resort. Late last year the property did complete a $3 million refurbishment to accommodation rooms, conference rooms and public areas. These changes to the resort, which recognises us as a 4-star property. Your insight into the room size...

Following a long twelve hour drive, our family arrived at the Resort at 6pm and as expected, very tired and hungry. Being late June, the outside temperature was a very chilly 3C. At the time of checking-in, we requested a restaurant booking. We were informed by the reception that 'it was a quiet night' and therefore a booking was not... more

Hotel is a long way from the city - it is actually in NSW (which makes getting a decent meal quite an expedition: $50 cab fare to Manuka, for instance!). Lobby is smart and well renovated... and then it goes down hill. You leave out the back door outside to a rather sad pool/entertaining area (the 'resort' in the name... more

Apr 11, 2008

The grounds are well kept and buildings newly renovated. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Apart from a few small problems eg a couple of spiders in the room and the toilet stopped flushing once, it was a perfect stay and the problems were dealt with within 15 mins of us reporting them. The room was very nice, facilities... more

Stayed at the hotel & attended a conference. Whilst there I had the worst room service meal ever!(inedible curry of the day). The water supply to the room was cut off overnight, coffee supply ran out for every morning and afternoon tea break over 2 days and the toilet facilities in the conference area blocked up on the first morning,... more

Basic motel-type family accommodation that at the family rate was good value for money, inclusive of breakfast. Our unit was recently repainted and the beds were new. There is a good playground and swimming pool. About 15 minutes from central Canberra. We would stay again if we were passing through Canberra, but look at other options closer to town if... more

I made the booking a month in advance and gave my credit card details. When we arrived there was no record of our booking and was told that there was no rooms available. As we were travelling with other parties we had no desire to try elsewhere . It was my husbands 50th birthday as I explained to the girl... more
