Staff very friendly and helpful,

Staff very friendly and helpful, rooms very clean pool and restaurant facilities were good.we were on the 12th floor and had a great view,we had selected a mountain view room and were very pleased with what we were allocated. I would probably stay at another Rydges further down the Esplanade next time though.
