    Shocking experience dealing with Management when room had a faulty lock

    rating22 Feb 2026

    We recently stayed at Rydges Armidale for what was meant to be a special final night with our 16-year-old exchange student, whose separate room had been booked through the World Exchange Programme. My family also had our own separate booking at the hotel.Upon arrival, the student noticed her door lock was faulty. We responsibly reported this, but while we were having dinner in the restaurant, the manager approached our table and handled the situation in an extremely unprofessional and aggressive manner, using explicit language in front of our children. We were told the student would have to leave, with claims it was “illegal” for her to stay — despite us being on-site in our own booked room as her supervising host family.Attempting to make a minor vacate the hotel at 7pm over a reported faulty lock was both alarming and concerning from a safety perspective. As a frequent female business traveller, I would also expect a room lock issue to be taken seriously.Although an apology and partial discount were later offered, the distress caused — particularly due to the aggressive conduct of the manager — left us feeling unsafe and deeply disappointed. I have stayed at Rydges properties for over 20 years and have never experienced treatment like this.Unfortunately, this experience has left a very bitter impression. Guest safety and professional conduct should always come first. Katrina Hancock, General Manager at Rydges Armidale, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I sincerely wish your experience had been more positive, I would like to clarify a few points.I personally arranged for a fold-out bed to be provided in your room for the student and explained that the original booking was made for an adult stated at the time of reservation. It is a matter of safety that we do not allow minors to occupy rooms alone. I also spoke with the staff member present during your conversation with our other manager. and can confirm that there was no unprofessional behavior at any time during your interaction.As a gesture of goodwill, I applied a discount to your booking to assist with the inconvenience.We do value your feedback and appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.Sincerely,Katie

    Great value, clean and fantastic shower

    rating22 Jan 2026

    Great spot, easy parking, clean and greatest motel shower in a long time. Only double beds but ok. Restaurant very quiet and a little slow. Drinks way over priced. Had a great Mediterranean Turkish menu and food was great and cannot fault. Would definitely stay again. Worth joining ridges on line as a priority member first and save a heap more than booking.com plus you get a free drink at comfy bar.

    Disappointed with this venue that isnt up to RYDGES Standard. Parts of the experience demonstated that they are trying to get there.

    Thought it would be a lot better

    rating26 Nov 2025

    Booked this motel due to its reviews and have to say we were very disappointed. The room I must say was very tired, with cupboard doors not shutting properly, the hand basin tap was nearly seized and took a lot of force to operate, the drain took ages to drain away, we had two dead cockroaches on the floor, one of the fluro lights would blink for quite a few minutes before it would turn on, and probably the worst thing was the toilet was loose and when you sat down it would tip over to one side. For a Ridges Motel, this was a very average look. We would have left and gone somewhere else but we were very tired after a long day traveling. I don’t normally write bad reviews but this place needs an active handyman to look over each room and make sure all is working correctly. We won’t be stay there again……
