This place may have been great once but that time was long ago. They say they are renovating but I think that may have been a euphemism for “holding on too long to a crumbled relic and still expecting people to pay while the place basically falls down around the guests”. The guy behind the counter did his best, with his tissue box webcam holder and refrozen toast and mercifully we got out without the building falling on our heads. Future guests - Goodluck. Great location though - for a future demolition site!

The manager was super friendly and polite.
place was run down. But in saying that it was great value for money.
good location, and loved the atmosphere in the foyer/ lounge
Very old worn out motel that needs some love. Some renovation work happening on the other side of the building made it noisy at times. The bed was comfy and the shower hot. The room was clean.

Ok at 3.5 stars this is not luxurious accommodation but the place is very clean, close to the high street, restaurants and shops. The staff was very friendly.
We were looking for accommodation for the Evis Festival, the Clarindon was right next door.
Clean budget style hotel.
We will visit again.

Comfortable place to stay. Very close to Katoomba’s Main Street. Off street parking was good. Hotel is currently being renovated. No noise experienced but very messy around the building.

Obviously the property is undergoing restoration, so it is difficult to rate at this time. I hope that when it is restored, it will be considerably better in surroundings than it is now, as it is in a dilapidated state with limited facilities.
We stayed here because it was convenient to shops. The condition of the motel is awful. Everything is old and dingy. The lights hardly provided enough light. The Rooms smell musty. The gentleman who ran it was helpful. He allowed us to change rooms because the bathroom tap was constantly dripping. I couldn’t recommend this motel. The only redeeming feature was that it was clean.
