Rydges Hotel

Written by Xavier Forsberg | May 14, 2017 2:00:00 PM

Rydges Lakeside Canberra was looking to achieve a modern, fresh look in line with other hotel upgrade works and tied in with the naming of the hotel to the QT Canberra. Work on this 205-room hotel involved painting the exterior high-rise bare pebblecrete and podium level, which was carried out using a combination of swing stages and knuckle booms, often operated in challenging weather conditions. Other challenges included working around multiple trades on tight deadlines. And the results speak for themselves with the former Rydges Lakeside Canberra transforming into the new, modern and revitalised QT Canberra.
