“Not quite as expected”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

When I booked this place, I expected a much flashier and upmarket experience. Instead, it was really more average with more being spent on marketing. The property is a collection of building spread over what seems to be an old industrial area. Everything seemed small and squashed. In general, it felt like someone was cutting corners and trying to pack people into small spaces. There were not enough parking spots near our room. The staff was friendly but also seemed to be a bit disconnected with how the property really was being experienced.

One classic memory is the laundry service being provided out of a small hollow area of a shed with a roller door. There was no reason for the laundry facilities to be so restricted. The pool was also small with very few places for seating around it.

The room itself was comfortable. Things did seem small compared to other hotels on the trip but it was okay.

When I checked in I told my wife that this was not what I expected. Since she did not know about what had been promised she did not mind. Because I knew of the differences it bothered me and affected my stay there. Overall I felt that we had payed for luxury but only got average.

Room Tip: Be sure to understand the layout of the location. For example, the 2 bedroom rooms are quite a dist...

“sisan”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Their New king room were superb & well worth the few extra dollars. This was one of the best on our 12 day outback trip. Room were very large, clean & v comfortable. Theses room were well away from the main complex so there was no noise to be heard at all. Breakfast wasn't the best unfortunately, especially the cooked part but hey you don't choose accommodation based on breakfast. The facilities ie pools were good & a nice way to relax after days outback. Will stay again

Room Tip: go the king room as it is quieter & spacious

“Very Average”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

Booked in one night stay for a trip to Dubbo Zoo. Clean, modern was ok. The shower was the best bit about the stay.

Stayed in many top hotels/motels around the world and this certainly wasnt up to the standards of a 4.5 star rated property, 3 at best.

The breakfast started out really good until I found a blonde hair wrapped around a piece of bacon. When the cook came out replenishing the foods on the buffet she was not wearing a hair net and she had blonde hair. I made a HUGE mistake and did not complain about it at the time ( with kids and didnt want the consternation this would bring about).

The price was quite expensive for what the motel offered, but thinking I was getting 4.5 star accomodation was willing to pay - silly me in Dubbo not Las Vegas!!!

Certain staff wasnt exactly friendly, quite curt and rude, others were fine. If your looking for a 4.5 star rated motel DONT STAY HERE.

Other than the zoo trip was great.

“Good Basic motel accomodation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

big clean rooms, buffet breakfast has plenty to eat. If visiting Dubbo with families the motel also has appartments that are worth exploring.

Room Tip: appartments a good options for families

“It was a pleasant stay, modern room. I'll stay here agan in future...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

I stayed here for business. The room was quite pleasant and modern. A colleague who used to stay somewhere else and stayed at this hotel liked it better too.
The restaurant was quite packed and food was great. The only complain was the food took a while to arrive. Probably more than 40 minutes for the mains that it was quite late when we finished. Other than that it was a good stay.
