We enjoyed our stay at The Rydges Capital Hill Canberra. It was just walking distance to the great Manuka shops in Griffith. Staff are very friendly and the inside court yard was a great place for coffee among the indoor trees. Everything was excellent however the room we stayed in was a bit stuffy at night but we could slide open the balcony door for fresh air when necessary.

We choose Rydges Capital Hill because of its location to places we wanted to see nearby as well as the shops and resturants at Manuka and Kingston. Also the weekend (Saturday & Sunday) room rate was the best value for Canberra southside. Disappointed the Imbargo bar did not open at 5.00pm Sunday. We had a late breakfast Monday and some food items had run out and not been replaced. The King Spa room was very comfortable and clean. The colour on some channels on the TV made the faces look like they had a burnt chocolate skin. All the reception staff looked like they knew their job but appeared as though they were afraid to smile. As the first point of contact on entering the hotel you want to be greeted with a smile and enthusiasm.

Staff are very helpful and extremely polite, nice environment. The lobby is comfortably furnished and spacious and the dining / breakfast area appeared large and well laid out. The hotel offer a special “free membership” discount of 20% off food and accommodation in addition to special internet rates.

Not enough people at reception during 'peak times' - there was always a long line of people waiting to be served.

We were given a very spacious room at Rydges, but it did show quite a fews signs of general wear and tear. It seems to be in need of a fresh lick of paint, but the stay was pleasant.

It would be good if they can accommodate early check-in in the future for guests with babies.
