Enjoyed the whole experience food, service, convenience to other shops and the centre of town made our stay enjoyable. We now stay there every trip back. That's about five a year. Our host and chef, Mark, is excellent at both tasks. Talk to Mark about a deal for repeat visitors especially if you are working in or around Katherine. Well... More

On a recent trip to Katherine for work purposes I decided to stay at the Katherine motel. I spend a lot of time in Katherine for work and this was my first time to choose this motel. I was very pleased with my decision! The rooms are spacious, comfortable and well equipped with everything I needed. Location is second to... More

BUT I stayed there at the end of January 2013 and they have refurbished the Bar and Restaurant, it looks great,, clean, fresh and friendly. The bar... More

The motel staff is very friendly and the motel is in the center of town. The rooms are basic but very comfortable to sleep in. The restaurant has amazing food. The pool area is great with BBQ access. And with a laundry service you can easily wash your own clothes.

People stop at Katherine because (a) Katherine Gorge is really worth a look and (b) there's nowhere else for miles and miles and miles. Unless greasy spoons and wooden shacks are a taste trend I've entirely missed, you don't stop here for the world-renowned culinary and accomodation delights. Within this context, the Katherine Motel is really OK. The rooms have... More

Katherine Gorge is really a must see on any trip to the outback, and the vast distances between towns mean you pretty much need to bunk down in Katherine overnight. Katherine is a perfectly nice town and streets better than one or two other places you may find yourself in your travels in this part of the world, but the... More

This is a decent, no frills, plain-Jane motel. Nothing special, but given the remoteness, it was comfortable and adequate. The hotel was convenient and easy to get to. The room was clean. I have no complaints whatsoever and would return if I was in the area..

Stayed here August for one night. Terrible odor in room, stench unbearable. Noise from adjoining rooms having big drinking sessions with underage people coming and going, did not stop until around 6am. Manager unable to be contacted despite leaving several messages, although room rate refunded promptly would never return!

I arrived in Katherine and found the Motel to be just off the main street. It's conveniently located and was within a walking distance to MacDonalds and Woolworths. Also it's enroute to Nitmiluk National Park. The rooms were very basic and dated, but that didn't bother me because of the price I paid ($120 overnight). However, the bed sheet were... More

Very basic hotel with a reasonable price for an overnight stay in Katherine. The Bed and Bathroom both clean but lacking in comfort. Might just of been the night we stayed or the location of our room but we found it to be very noisy. A bit of noise from the rooms around us and some from the nearby pubs... More
