Dissappointing and did not live up to expectations. The photos on the internet do not reflect what the rooms are like at all. The reality was quite misleading. A few comments: First the bed: A tired old brass bed with broken fittings, a crap mattress that made my partner's hip ache, and forget sleeping comfortably if you are over six... More

I have travelled back to The Clarendon twice since my last review and thought I would update a my lucky first trip!! After spending a great weekend at the Clarendon I have booked in twice since then. Organized baby-sitters and driven up from Sydney only to find the band cancelled AT THE LAST MINUTE and even the Guesthouse closed (which... More

We had booked this room as we wanted to see the band on Sunday night. Unfortunately the gig was cancelled (through no fault of the hotel). We stayed in one of the guest house rooms. It was large, with a comfy double bed plus a single. The room is equipped to deal with the cold, electric blankets, heaters in the... More

A charming 1920's get away! The staff is friendly and eager to please. The rooms are comfy and clean. It is in the heart of Katoomba but off the beaten path enough to not hear too much of the city sounds. Very relaxing and quiet place. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a break from reality and... More

I would like to thank the staff for looking after us so well, always a smile and helpful. My family and I have been very happy to be welcomed guests at the clarendon for the Australia Day long weekend. The relaxed and fun atmosphere of the theatre music has been an added pleasure. We will defiantly be back next year!!!!

Spent New Year's Eve with my wife and friends enjoying sounds of the 60's and 70's and a very sumptuous 4 course dinner. Hard to say which course was the best - the prawns, flauta, barramundi or apple & rhubarb crumble! Comfortable bed and a tasty hot breakfast, too. Just what we needed!

we had a good time at the clarendon...it was our 3rd time back there again and we find it freindly and cosy...the show they had on was excellent, and the breakfast good also.....it is also good with a one minute walk to the rsl club nextdoor....a big thanks again...

Stayed for one night with my partner recently on a weekend Getaway from Sydney. We really enjoyed our stay and it was so nice to find somewhere like this so close to Sydney. We found the atmosphere was warm and relaxed, and the staff were attentive and friendly, food was delicious and rooms very comfortable. If anyone is looking for... More

This place supports many types of local and international acts. You can always catch a great gig here, not to mention the hearty and flavourful meals on order. I am a local of the lower mountains but find myself coming back time and time again to this beautifully well kept venue for the relaxing atmosphere and fulfilling serve of community... More
