My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful! The lovely clean and large room provided amazing water views over beautiful Port Macquarie, making it a truly comfortable and spacious experience. Although the room may need some paint soon, it was still a fantastic stay after a long trip to Port Macquarie.

6.0/10

I must say, the hotel's location was fantastic, with its proximity to various facilities and restaurants. The rooms, however, were a bit of a letdown - old, small, and poorly lit, but at least they were comfortable enough for a good night's sleep. The service was a mixed bag of welcoming interactions and slightly unprofessional behavior. Here's my detailed experience:

Rooms

6.0

The rooms were very comfortable; we really only slept there. However, they were old and outdated, had a view of the back alley, and the balcony was very small compared to other hotels in the same vicinity. The rooms were very poorly lit, had cracks along the walls, and smelled somewhat damp.

Service

7.0

The staff were welcoming and helpful, but some were in the back room having personal conversations before attending to guests. Overall, they were friendly and efficient at reception.

Location

8.0

The location was very convenient - right near many of the town's facilities and restaurants, with good pedestrian access to the esplanade and water. However, it was a bit too loud and packed with kids, making it less comfortable to fully enjoy the surroundings.

Dining

5.0

Unfortunately, the dining experience was very disappointing.

Facilities

5.0

Maybe the value for money could have been better if more amenities were provided.

7.4/10

The hotel had spacious rooms, though a bit tired and in need of refurbishment, with a high price tag of $559 per night for the apartment. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond, even suggesting outside dining options. The location was ideal, close to the Greyhound bus stop and overlooking the water. Overall, a mixed experience with room for improvement but with excellent service and location.

The hotel offers a comfortable stay with friendly service in a good location, although there are some cleanliness issues in the rooms and the dining experience could be improved. The facilities are decent for a relaxing stay.

Rooms

Service

7.0

The staff were amazing and accommodating, but service was slow at times and lacked knowledge on certain aspects.

Location

The hotel is well-appointed next to a pub and shops, with a lovely walking trail along the harbor. Perfect for a getaway from the city.

The hotel offers basic facilities suitable for a short stay, but nothing extraordinary.

David

United Kingdom, July 2023

7.0/10

The hotel has large, dated rooms showing signs of wear and tear, but they are spacious and quiet with a lovely view. Priced at $600 per night, the rooms lack a balcony and breakfast, giving a vibe from the '90s.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms are quite big, quiet, and offer a lovely view. However, they show signs of wear and tear and could benefit from refurbishment.

Service

9.0

The service was lovely and gracious, of the highest quality, friendly, and accommodating.

Location

The location is excellent, right in town with good pedestrian access to the esplanade and water. However, parking is limited and with small spaces, which is paid for.

Dining

The hotel offers a nice and clean room with an exceptional view of the pool area and river. However, there were instances of noise from the neighboring rooms and cleanliness concerns.

Rooms

The room we stayed in was nice and clean with an exceptional view of the pool area and river, but we could hear people in the next room and found it not too clean.

Service

The service at the hotel was great overall, except for one staff member who lacked friendliness and engagement during our interaction.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location is convenient, although the room's view could have been better if we were informed about higher-level rooms. It is close to shops, dining options, and a nearby shopping center.

Dining

The dining experience was average, with friendly kitchen staff and a good egg station, but the hot food was disappointing as it was not served at the right temperature.

Facilities

The hotel offers good facilities, with a beautiful restaurant and bar areas, and is working on improving the overall customer experience.
