Room great if only using to sleep in bed was comfortable. Had buffet breakfast for both days that stayed plenty to choose from on buffet but found the food wasn’t really hot both days I ate and on the second day didn’t even see anyone checking the hot food to see if there was anything that needed to be topped up even if was only a small amount to get through the next hour or so

We had a great experience staying at Rydges Fortitude Valley. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived, which made a real difference to our stay. We were in town for an expo at the Showgrounds, and the location couldn’t have been more convenient—just a short walk away. Parking was straightforward and stress-free, which is always appreciated. Our room was spotless, including the bathroom, and the bed was very comfortable. Everything felt clean, modern, and well maintained. Would definitely stay here again next time we're in Brisbane for an event!
