From the previous reviews I arrived with low expectations but was pleasantly surprised (maybe helped by a free upgrade to a sea view room). Indeed the hotel is rather dated - stuck in the 1980's - but the room was fine and the view over Nelson Bay was delightful. The staff were very friendly and helpful. This place has massive... More

Only a one night stop thank goodness. The hotel was very tired and in need of updating. The curtains were ragged in places and the bedding had obviously been in use for many years. The air conditioning unit was one of those old in the window sort and very noisy making keeping it on overnight impossible. However it was in... More

I went with the expectation that this cost me $100 a night, it was a case of how bad could it be... However I was pleasantly surprised! The lady on reception was great, I was staying there with my 2 young children, and they accommodated me by having 2 single beds as well as a double so no one had... More

Generally good for a night's stay, but nothing more perhaps. The place was clean no doubt. However, we did find the facilities to be old. In particular, the aircon was noisy all night long. It's way too old and cranky. The TV too was small and really old (I wouldn't be surprised if it's 20 years old at least).

My husband and I stayed at this "resort" to celebrate the 60th anniversary of my husbands original course mates. The resort was badly in need of refurbishing.The curtains were worn and the air conditioner was hidden behind a curtain and so unless you placed the curtain over a chair the air conditioner was useless. The pool area was in need... More

Very dated. Needs a revamp. Is in a good location. Stayed in 'spa' room, large room, good view. The place was clean that's about it. Everything seems old and rundown. Curtains etc... Need a good wash. 'Aircon' fell apart when tried to turn it on.

I don't know how they can call this either a hotel or a resort. I thought laws would shut such a place down! The reception area is worse than a public hospital with an ancient elevator and dirt/scum all over the joint. It is well below any standard I have ever seen both here and overseas. I can't understand how... More

This hotel could be good if only they would clean the years of grime in the rooms, light fittings and the swimming pool, and replace the curtains, air con and other furnishings which really wouldnt cost that much its like they just dont care anymore! I have no idea what we paid as booked through a travel agent though I... More

Spent one night here, lucky we were only in the room for about 10 hrs. Has seen better days, but was reasonably clean. Was only option available at short notice. Close to town center in a prime position but needs demolition.
