Rooms set up with refrigerator, hot pot, coffee cups, glasses, plates, bowls, cutlery, instant coffee, teas, creamers and a welcome biscuit. My queen room was large and clean. In addition to bed, room was outfitted with large closet, dresser, 2 bedside tables with lamps In room table and chairs large enough to dine at. Traveled with my 2 adult sons and had joining rooms. Rooms had heating and air conditioning units. Nice little table with 2 chairs outside rooms. You'll need a car to get around. Would definitely stay here again. Older property which has been updated and well maintained.

we have stayed here a few times now but my last visit was not so great. Service was excellent but the room although clean everywhere but the ceiling. Mouldy ceiling, the room smelt damp and musty. Room 46 caused me to have irritated eyes, breathing and forced me to spend the night with the window open which made the room too cold. Eventually I slept in my car. I left early after hardly no sleep. Seriously this room needs immediate attention.

An easy to find comfortable place to stay . Bed very comfortable. The microwave very convenient especially when too wet to go out to eat. A nice clean cosy place to stay. So close to the Katoomba shops and attractions.
