Looks old style from the outside but very clean, modern and and comfortable units with all conveniences. Handy to lake walks and coffee van. Thought that The Esplanade traffic might be a problem but not so - slept like logs. Stayed two nights but could have happily stayed longer.

I had an amazing stay at the Esplanade Motel in Newcastle! The room was clean and well presented, the staff were welcoming, and check in and out was a breeze. Plus, the comfortable bed and extra towels from the cleaning staff made my stay even better. It's great when everything comes together for a lovely experience!

Great to go to motel that has a free EV charger for your car; very quiet, clean, spacious room. Would recommend. Lovely walk along the bay to many dinner options if you don't want the Japenese restaurant on site.

My girlfriend and sister stayed here over the weekend of the SummerSalt festival. The room was nice and tidy and everything that was provided was essential and practical. I loved how there was a coffee van out the front for coffee which was much needed in the mornings. The only problem we had was with the air conditioner and the temperature when used.
