Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had an emergency run into Broken Hill late one evening. I called upon my usual motels. They were not answering their phone as it was 8pm. I searched online and found the Old Willy had an online booking system. I booked and went from the hospital to the motel around 930pm Upon arrival I rang the number on the reception door and the young lady said she’d be there soon. She came and checked me in quickly and had me sorted in no time. I went back to the hospital to pick up my mate that had been injured then we made our way back to the motel. My room was very comfortable and my mate said his room was great as well. Great friendly efficient service.

Extremely difficult to book. Online booking system flawed. Prices inconsistent from website to when you call them. Had to request more towels and was told the towel allocation for our room was exhausted and we would have to share. Not going to recommend this place because of that.

We tried to book into this motel, We need a ground floor unit but were told the only ground floor unit available was their most expensive one. The carpark had three cars in it, the ‘Vacancy’ sign was on, but we think that, because the office had closed at 5 pm, a few minutes earlier, whoever answered the phone just couldn’t be bothered. As frequent visitors to Broken Hill, we will not be going to this venue again. Would hate to intrude on them.

Overnight stay whilst travelling through to the east coast. So glad the decision was made to utilise Old Willyama. Booked online and also phoned to let reception know my arrival might be a little late. No problem, key left in key-safe and access via message to my phone. Ideal room for solo traveller and a most comfortable bed with all the usual facilities. Very handy having a restaurant attached to the motel in the old hotel building. All in all the stay was most pleasant and would highly recommend this establishment if looking to stay in Broken Hill.

We highly recommend this motel. Very friendly staff, clean room and comfortable beds. The pool was perfect to relax in at the end of the day. We loved that the pool ws available anytime and pool towels were provided.

We spent 4 nights to explore Broken Hill. Very appreciative of the downstairs room. Very quiet motel with a comfortable bed, great large smart tv & large shower with great water pressure. Toaster along with cutlery and crockery supplied which was helpful. Small swimming pool but needed cleaning same with the bbq area. We found a lovely park each night with excellent bbq facilities & enjoyed the balmy evenings.

Could not fault Willyama accomm although the adjacent Chinese Restaurant could be improved - see separate review. Plenty of on-site parking; excellent staff; and very welcome pleasant old-fashioned service such as the rooms being made up and linen changed daily without having to request service or even put out a sign. We tried the breakfast packs available for a very small fee from reception. They were a very convenient and adequate option. Well located; clean; good wi-fi; and we even found some flexibility in negotiating a room rate for multiple nights. What’s not to like? Well done Willyama and staff.

Clean and spacious room. Very comfortable bed. Walking distance to city centre. Shower pressure was good with a good supply of soap. Plenty of parking spaces, however you may not get close to your room.

All good. Friendly staff. Only a short walk to main street. Clean and comfortable. Good to see they are one of the seemingly few establishments that still make the beds and give fresh towels (if needed) each day. Not sure why I need to have 200 characters!
