We booked through wotif and paid $128 for a small double room.

That was the extent of information or conversation provided. Very poor customer service skills in... More

Stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment when travelling in a group of 2 couples; slightly strange arrangement as the door to the corridor led into the 1st bedroom. Needed a few touches - hot plate in the kitchen, mirror I he second bathroom - but it was very comfortable, and spacious. Easy to get to everything (shops are just over... More

As a birthday treat my partner took me to the mountains. He booked a suite which was large but was not furnished to a 4 star level. It needed some updating and touches like good coffee. The robes and fire were appreciated. The view from the balcony was a bit obscured by trees. The better view was from the restaurant... More

I booked a room on Wotif, and on arrival was given a room that was very disappointing and looked nothing like on the pictures - a small, dark, noisy room, facing the busy main street. Strong advice - do not book this motel on the internet, as you may not get what you expect. Check the actual room you will... More

We found this place on-line and could not be happier. It was so cozy, clean and lovely. The woman running reception was on top of her game and so pleasant. Our room was large, very clean and comfortable. We picked a room without a view to save on cash and were still able to have great views by sitting in... More

Well hard to rate this one. The room was ok but expected more for the price. Like some simple things like shampoo in the bathroom and maybe a mini bar. Breakfast was average and although maybe I nice thing to do. But to feed the local town bum in the same room as the quests? well not real good and... More

This 'motel' trades under a number of different names which makes it confusing when booking. The location is perfect. Staff were not helpful. You hear your neighbours and people in the hallway, as the walls are paper thin. The motel is used by workman who get up at dawn, and so will you. The buffet breakfast is stale and dodgy.... More

We are sorry for this guests experience, we can't explain the confusion but can apologise about the disturbance. Last month the Blue Mountains experienced the worst storms in 100 years and there have been a lot of workmen coming to the Mountains for the clean up. Normally we would not have workmen on a weekend but due to the situation... More

Choosing to travel to Katoomba in July is probably not the wisest idea, due to the freezing temps. We quickly forgot about the coldness as soon as we unlocked our door. The room was deliciously warm, even before turning on the wall heater. The spa laden with champagne glasses made it even more inviting. Our room was spotless, very well... More

We stopped here for one night and were very impressed indeed (especially after staying in a horrible hotel the previous night). The reception staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. As there was three of us a family room was the cheaper option (only $158.00/£102.00 including breakfast) and the room was fab. It was very spacious, clean, with a kitchen... More

The rooms were very clean and seemed newly renovated. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The cooked breakfast was amazing. Definitely worth the money.
