“modern, friendly, clean and reasonabley priced”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

This hotel is clean and value for money. We stayed there for four days at the end of our month long trip to the States, so we wanted somewhere quiet and not right in the middle of town. It has a good size clean pool and the room had two large beds and the bathroom was clean as well. The breakfast is self serve and basic but gets you going for the day with fresh fruit and a waffle maker if you want, I just had the cereal, bananas and orange juice.

We had a hire car so getting to and from the hotel wasn't a problem but on one night when we were going into the Long Beach restaurant/drinking strip, the concierge organised the hotel's transfer bus to take us in and also to pick us up (before 11pm) - we didn't make the bus. We would stay there again and I recommend this hotel. Oh yeah, there is a great little Mexican restaurant, Pancho's, just down the same road the hotel is on, no overheads but very cheap and good food :)

Room Tip: We had a room at the back of the block but this is quieter than near the front which is close to the...

“GOOD ENOUGH”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

If you're looking for a grand hotel experience within walking distance to entertainment, this isn't it. If you need to be centrally located, have a safe place to sleep and get a good start to the day, this is a very good choice. The Hotel Current was easy to find, served a good breakfast, had an in-room coffee pot and hair dryer and was well-staffed. While it's a typical exterior motel, complete with crowded parking and some aging problems, it absolutely served our overnight needs in a secure environment at a decent price. The bonus? The nighttime grounds monitor who helped people park near their rooms and kept noise to a minimum in a friendly manner.

Room Tip: Noticed that many guests were used to finding good deals - visitors from foreign countries, families...

“Dont waste your money!”

When you drive up to this place it looks nice however if you dont stay in one of the most expensive rooms it turns bad quick. They put you in the back where it just looks shady, the beds feel like you are sleeping on a board, the heating/ air conditioning unit is loud and the rooms are small and not very clean. Dont waste your money

“Everything you could ask for!”

Recently stayed at the Hotel Current, and it's a great hotel. We were only originally planning to stay 1 night, but ended up booking another night whilst I was there as it was very comfortable! Make sure you book a lifestyle room (only a little extra cost) as they have recently been refurbished and are very tastefully done. Spacious rooms, comfortable bed, great showers, big TV with lots of channels, exceptionally clean. Our room was close to the road which is the Pacific Highway and can be quite noisy in the mornings, but is nothing that ear plugs can't handle! The pool area is nicely done with loungers and chairs dotted about. The pool is heated and piped chillout music plays. The staff are all very helpful and friendly. A complimentary courtesy bus is on hand to ferry you around the local area (5 mile radius) which we made use of. Drive to shoreline village in 5-10mins. Continental breakfast was also very good. Two waffle machines where you can help yourself, cereals, toast, juice, tea/coffee etc. Ample free parking. There are a few restaurants next door which looked very good and have good reviews but we did not try. Ignore previous reviews about the local area being dodgy - it is not at all! Overall, a great stay.

“Spent Christmas at Hotel Current”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

Had a very nice stay at Hotel Current over the Holiday. The staff was amazing and we were given a room upgrade upon check in. The bed was very comfortable and bedding was crisp and clean.We loved the fresh waffles for breakfast every morning before heading out for our activities.
The location was perfect and having the Brazilian Steakhouse in walking distance right next door to the hotel was even nicer. We ate there two nights and sure got our fill.
Would not hesitate on staying at Hotel Current again!

Room Tip: We had room 102.... front corner which was on the main road side. We turned on ac/heater fan at nigh...
