I recently stayed at Rydges Port Macquarie, an EVT Hotel, and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The hotel is beautifully located right by the sea, making it perfect for relaxing walks along the waterfront. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and offered stunning views, which made the stay all the more enjoyable.
The staff were friendly and helpful, adding to the overall pleasant atmosphere of the hotel. However, the breakfast spread was quite average—while it had the basics, it lacked variety and didn’t quite match the high standard of the rest of the hotel.
Overall, it’s a wonderful spot for a seaside getaway, and I’d happily stay again. Hopefully, they’ll enhance the breakfast selection in the future to make the experience even better!
Location was good, staff were friendly and helpful.
However the photos of the bathroom were misleading - the shower and toilet look spacious but were narrow in reality
My father was has a walker and there wasn't enough room for him to walk to the toilet.
There were no shower rails for support (they were actually towel rails).
So the place is not really disability friendly (though staff did provide shower chair).
The mattresses were also extremely soft - making it difficult to get out of bed.
