The property has a beautiful view of the lake and is within walking distance of the main beach and tourist/shopping activities. The top floor restaurant and bar are marvelous. Staff was very helpful and responsive. We loved our stay.

We’ve stayed a few times and I can’t fault its location - which is why we choose it. Out of the town chaos but an easy, flat walk along the lake to get into town. Beautiful views of the lake from the rooms too. It’s old and rooms need an update (they are actually doing this right now to half the hotel and I imagine the other half will be done soon too). The restaurants are great, lovely food and amazing views. Staff were hit and miss with their kindness. The man on reception is AMAZING and so accomodating, I don’t know his name but he was lovely vs a woman we had at one point who was much less accomodating and helpful. Same with dinner we had some really kind servers and then some grumpy ones. The other confusing point is the EVT system. No one really seems to acknowledge it or know how it works. I appreciate we booked through a third party but we’ve had no issues at other Rydges ro use our benefits (but not earn any points). We found mixed understandings but again the man on reception was happy to work through any issues and we appreciate that. Overall we like it here and hope to stay again once it’s renovated and refreshed as a QT

Sink didn’t work for two day stay. Balcony door lock didn’t work. No amenities and the room was basic and dated. Charged extra for parking. For almost $500 a night NZ$ it was not what I was expecting.

The property is undergoing renovations, so will only get better. What I liked: - Bus stops right out front, so easy and inexpensive transfer from the airport. - Walkable to town, but far enough away to be quiet. - Decent buffet breakfast options - Nice view of the lake - Front desk staff were extremely helpful in reconfirming any tours we had booked. - Nice little beach\park area across the street to enjoy. We had the one bedroom suite - definitely tired and dated, but was still comfortable. No AC, so opened the windows at night which was fine.

Generally good, very walkable to the restaurants, bars and shops. Spectacular views from the restaurant and Bar. Drawbacks, no AC and if you leave the windows open, the road is very noisy in the morning and the trees parcially block the lake. All that said, i would stay there again.

Would never stay again

The hotel was sub par in every way. Rude and combative front desk manager when I told him we had no water at pressure at all in our shower. Room was dirty when we checked in. Clearly regional managers are unaware how tattered and underwhelming this property has become. Very disappointing on so many levels. Too bad. We expected to like it
