Nestled amongst Townsville's finest restaurants and cafes with views overlooking the Marina and Magnetic Island, Rydges Southbank offers both value and warm hospitality whilst giving you all the conveniences you would expect at a four star hotel.

Enjoy a cocktail by the pool and spa situated in a lush, tropical garden setting, or dine in the Southbank Grill which is famous for its steaks. The Southbank Grill recently won the coveted award for Best Fine Dining Restaurant at the 2007 North Queensland Restaurant and Caterers Awards.

A leisurely stroll will have you in the Central Business District for shopping or business, or at one of Townsville's night clubs, heritage bars, major tourist attractions or the Magnetic Island Ferry. Visit The Strand, Townsville's exciting new playground, a short walk, or minutes by car.

Why not visit the Sunday Cotter's Markets after enjoying a full buffet breakfast. Weekend bed and breakfast packages are available as are indulgence packages in the beautifully appointed executive rooms with spas.

With the added advantages of 24 hour reception and plenty of free off street parking, the Rydges Southbank Townsville is an ideal base from which to conduct a business or holiday visit.
