It’s always a great stay at GC airport Rydges. Whether it’s an early morning flight or just to get ahead on the M1, this is our go-to. Friendly, clean & good food. In the warmer months the pool is delightful. Great cocktails too.

Great hotel at Gold Coast airport
Hotel is at the airport. Rooms are comfortable with the best double glazed windows which keep out all sound. Considering hotel is at the airport, that’s exceptional. Room service food was delicious. Underground parking good. Only negative I had was blinds were not “block out” and morning sun wakes me up very early in Qld.
