We spent one night at this hotel on a road trip from Adelaide to Sydney. We thought it would be a nice opportunity to see some of the Blue Mountains. The hotel is well located for site-seeing, but as others mentioned, you cannot easily walk from it to the main streets in either Katoomba or Leura due to the highway.... More

We spent three nights here in May. Great location with easy access to most of the Blue Mountain sights and activities. The room was clean and comfortable and the folks running the place are friendly and helpful. The room included free wireless internet, a small refrigerator, toaster, hot-water pot and safe. The guest laundry seemed a bit expensive, but just... More

The staff are really helpful and friendly, my hubby and I felt welcome when we arrived. Great view from the roof! Value for money, clean, easy to see from the highway. Recommend the steakhouse next door! I'd stay here again if in the area!!

Clean room with a comfortable bed and good amenities i. e. fridge and free wifi, though the air con/heating didn't work in my room. The location suffers from being on the 'wrong side' of the Great Western Highway, therefore walking into Katoomba isn't really an easy option. Otherwise, no complaints.

My fiancee and I stayed here after a big day of exploring the local attractions. It was a quick stop before an early rise the next day so we werent in the room for long! I pre-booked via an accommodation website and got a great deal including breakfast which made it worthwhile to stay here. Dont expect anything flashy. The... More

Arrived in the rain, and left in the rain! So didn't get to see anything at its best. Basic motel rooms, but all you need. Spacious as well. No issues with the road close by, but I sleep like the proverbial log. Our friends room had a slight musty smell .. ? not used regularly, but it didn't bother them.... More

It's a classic old Best Western motel. A bit old and tired, but great value, great location, and the management (Denise) goes as step beyond expectation. Take her advice, she knows the area. We covered all the great views, missed all the other tourists. And a surprisingly good steakhouse next door, reviewed separately.

Its on the highway half way between Leura and Katoomba. I had reservations at first with the thought off semi- trailers trundling through the night disturbing my sleep surprisingly I never heard a thing, if you really listen you can hear them as a faint background murmur. The rooms are a fair size, very clean with a comfortable two piece... More

What a treat to be able to stay in this really old hotel. I love visiting Katoomba each time we return for vacation in Australia. It was quite a treat to stay in this lovely old hotel. Lovely hotel in the perfect central location to all that we had planned to see on this trip.

If your looking for a comfortable place to stay in the hub of tourist attractions in blue mountains - this is the spot! With friendly, informative staff greeting you on arrival and a good quality bed to crash in after visiting the Three Sisters at sunset you can't go wrong. Bathrooms not flash but room 25 was spacious and quiet.
