We have stayed here before as family live near by.
The hotel is old ,beds are comfortable ,but things like water pressure are very bad . So much so that toilet unable to be flushed for 12 hrs.
Lock in door problematic several times and staff had to be called to open it several times .
Staff were lovely and genuinely helpful.
This is our third stop of always 3-4 nights.

Staff are friendly & accommodating. Bed was comfortable but room was lacking in provisions. As there were no coffee cups, no tea towel or hand towel, no soap or shampoo for shower. Improvisation was key for this stay.

Quite a quaint little motel. A few things could definitely be improved upon but overall it was definitely value for money.
Cancelled our reservation 2 hours before check in and didn’t offer any assistance with finding other accommodation. And still waiting on our refund

The room servicing let down an otherwise pleasant hotel. The rooms are well away from the possibly noisy hotel public area and have lovely views back towards Sydney. The king size bed was comfortable. Our room had a table, but only one chair; a microwave and cutlery, but no plates or cups, and only one water glass and one wine glass. The toilet roll had to be immediately changed as there were only a few sheets left. The were only 2 teabags in a large and rather dusty box along with a partly used jar of instant coffee. We did arrive an hour early but were quite content to wait, so I can't really explain the lax service. The hotel staff were helpful, but it shouldn't have been necessary.
Food was lovely, staff very friendly.View from room was spectacular.
Only downside was one side of electric blanket didnt work and it was gery cold.

Bathroom had a nice ~10" hole in the ceiling. Under the hole hole a collection of dead bugs that had fallen through. The room was otherwise fine, but damp.
We had great food for lunch and then for dinner at the pub . The room was clean , the bed was a king size , all in all it was fantastic staying there .

Great view, rooms away from pub area. Great meals.
Our aircon only let very limited out, with 3 degrees outside in the morning it was very cold inside as well. We did complain, staff member ''reset'' the aircon and she claimed it showed 24 degrees inside on the aircon. On returning to the room there was no difference, just cold and yes the aircon showed 24 degrees. Showing 24 degrees on the crooked aircon doesn't mean the room is 24 degrees. It was very hard to have a shower the next morning because the room would have been less than 10 degrees. Just as well we had an electric blanket on the bed. Since the rooms were upstairs from the pub area there was a metal staircase to go down to the pub. It was raining, the staircase did have a railing on one side made of metal so nice and cold and wet and no lightning at night at all to get back up. Sorry your hotel may look great in the pictures but our stay was just COLD overall.

Nice place to stay, off the road so quiet. Room service for meals if needed. The only thing we found was that the heating wasnt very hot even though we had it turned to maximum, & we would have appreciatted a microwave in the room as my girlfriend didnt eat al the supper & we couldnt then reheat it in our room although they may have done it for us if we had asked
Old hotel/motel, convenient stop on way to Katoomba. Room well maintained and comfortable. Great view from hotel downstairs.

This is a small motel-style attached to a pub, old style and nothing fancy. Could invest in an update. Convenient for our stay, and as a sleepover. Lunch at the pub was fine, and on a clear day, the view would be great.

Could do better with a bit of attention.
Room was clean and spacious but on the coldest day on record was like an ice box as no heating had been turned on for pre booked guests. Room advertised with kitchenette. There was a kitchen sink but no cooking facilities, not even a microwave and no plates or cutlery. Had to chase up cleaner for a bath mat and a toilet roll. We were called after we left asking where was the iron and ironing board when there was none in the room to start with. Rating could have been lower but as stated was clean and spacious and with a few tweaks could be rated higher. But then maybe they don't need to as the customers keep coming.
clean and basic double room with a really comfortable big bed; staff were friendly and helpful.
the view back down over the sydney basin are impressive
