Christmas in Wgtn.
Staff at the front were probably the best of any place we have stayed in NZ or any other country we have traveled. Always pleasant with a smile and always assisted with a few difficulties we faced. Thank you.

The in house restaurant is excellent. Comfy bed. The AC unit in my room is kind of hard to operate (model 1) despite following the instructions on the user guide.

Check in person at the desk was rude/curt and could NOT be bothered. She was short and clearly pissed off that we were checking in. Little information and said very snarky-just get the information in your room. SOOOOO bad we almost left. Had it not been prepaid we would have.

Returned to Ridges after great experience several years ago=but disappointed. City view = office building. Room= clean, tidy but very tired (no ammenities). Shower= burning hot or freezing. Noisy aircon going on & off all night (Aircon unit sits on the floor of the room by the window) Breakfast = poor quality, limited selection, have to pay extra for barista coffee (not worth extra $). Staff = very friendly; check in and out staff excellent. Wait staff = very nice but need training (did not know how to clean, clear or even get around to setting tables). Not worth the $$ ..
