Currently sitting on Room 703 of the Rydges hotel with a view of all the runways and the domestic terminal. Some of the international stands are blocked by the terminal. Rydges has two eateries - I uses Smithy's Bar during my stay. Prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of the meals. There is also a rooftop bar with views out across the airport. Parking is in the airport parking, with a 50% off if the hotel validates your ticket. I noticed that they also have a machine giving 100% rebate, but don't know what you need to qualify for that.
