Excellent place to stay”

Rooms are always neat and tidy. Staff are always friendly. Its the only place I stay when in Port Macquarie. View from Breakfast room is to die for watching the sun come up.

Fine, nice place on the hilltop”

Place was fine, location wise hard to go wrong in Port Mac, the hilltop was nice for the view, but parking is limited when they're full, and you get a lot of windy sand if you're not underground. Sound proofing from room to room is a bit suspect. Decent fast wifi, which was better than our previous hotel. Didn't try any food, hence the neutral rating. Spa was good.

Great location”

A very nice motel. It is worth the extra to have an ocean view, otherwise no view. Breakfast room was lovely with very nice meal. Across the road from beach and a 5 minute walk to shopping centre. Very central, abit noisy during the day due to beach traffic but quiet at nigh.

Excellent”

Would most deffinatly stay here again. Ocean view room was fab for the price we paid. Staff all friendly and nothing was to much trouble. Highly rate this hotel.

Exceptional”

Excellent location overlooking the beach. Spacious airy room. Well equipped. Friendly helpful staff. Off road car parking. Close to cafes, restaurants and shopping areas. There was no lift in this hotel. We do not have mobility issues but as we're on an extended holiday in Australia our luggage was heavy. The staff offered to carry it upstairs but we declined. So just be aware of this when booking. Very enjoyable stay in this hotel.

Good hotel, great location.”

Great 2 night stay in Port Macquarie, this hotel was well equipped with friendly members of staff. Just one minor complaint about our room was that the bathroom comes with a spa bath which did not work. When pointed out to to receptionist I was informed that the motors that run the spa's tend to burn out after 3 years and it is too expensive to replace them........so no spa bath for me.

Comfortable Stay”

Hotel is at very nice location. Rooms are clean. I booked river view room, but when I go to bolcony I see Car Park, it is facing car park, for river view, we will have to look right side, but expected river facing unit. Hotel us very nice otherwise, will stay here again.

Very enjoyable”

We really enjoyed our stay, the staff were fantastic and very accommodating. Easy walking distance to town and great views overlooking Town beach. The room was lovely and very comfortable. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Great Surroundings”

We stayed New Year's Eve( 1 night ). Friendly desk service, The place was booked with people. Walls are thin, turned on A/C which helped. Unfortunately, they did not have their restuarant open for dinner, because of holiday. However, about a 10 min. Walk downtown pier with many restuarant so open. Could see river from our window. Has small balcony with small chairs and table. I am happy that we stayed here. Has a quaint but lovely feel to room. Room also smells fresh. No mold smell. I did not rate hotel 4 star because room is small, pool is small and the decor of room does not have a 4 star appearance, no dinner service and they need a bigger lot for the size of people it accommodates. One thing is your views and proximity to ocean and entertainment is close by.

Close To Town”

Got a free upgrade to an Ocean View room, although the balcony was only about 20cm in width, just enough to step onto it. That said the view was really nice, room was comfortable and quiet, free parking although it does fill up at night time, but you can park across the road untimed as well. Free wifi up to 3.5GB and 3 devices, Would stay here again!

Very nice, high quality.”

Staff were a little flustered on check-in due to system changeover, in spite of this, all staff were apologetic, friendly and attentive. Room was very nice, clean, large and had a nice big bathroom. Casual, comfortable walk to restaraunts along foreshore. Breakfast was nicely cooked with a beautiful view from dining room.

Great view of breakwater”

Staff service was great throughout. Room was clean and good for a night’s stay. Location was amazing with a great view of Coast and breakwater during breakfast. But breakfast spread was simple (muffins, bread, jam, muesli, milk etc) and there was no hot food.. free parking was appreciated. Bad thing was the Wifi didn’t work, we could not find the signal Nor log in.

Comfortable Stay”

Overall, I enjoyed staying this hotel very much. The room was clean, nice ocean view as advertised. Also, the bath room was very convenient because it was clean and enough space to take shower.

Very comfortable stay”

The hotel is very close to the beach with nice views of the coast line and park area and skateboard park and play ground for the kids. The hotel is very clean and the rooms are comfortable. Overall it was a very enjoyable stay.

More motel than hotel”

Quick, easy check-in, receptionist volunteered to help with luggage. Stayed on the 3rd floor with great views, but there was no lift. Would have liked dinner in the room, but the room service menu offered dinner only from Mondays to Thursdays! On the rate I booked, breakfast was included but very limited. Cereals were in individual boxes (very old fashioned, and very limiting), the three mini croissants on display had gone, so the waitress said I could get one if I waited til someone else heated and delivered them (I declined). Cooked breakfasts were available for extra cost. While the "hotel" is located in a prime location with great views, it still has that "Best Western" feel of a motel. It's a bit of a waste really.

Great View”

Was greatly surprised when our room had a shore line view 😀 (not requested) Staff were friendly and happy to help. The room was clean although not all pillowcases were fresh. There is no lift, so carrying heavy luggage upstairs is a problem. Breakfast dining area is small and would only hold approx. 20ppl at a setting and has a fantastic view. Ear plugs required as it was a bit noisy.

Still nice but not as good as previous visits”

I've stayed at this hotel before and really liked it, experience this time was good but not as good as previous. It does have a great location its a short walk to the beach and to the bike and walking tracks and also an easy walk into town. Many of the rooms have great views of the ocean which is nice. Also has comfortable beds and friendly staff. The room I was in was in the back block of the hotel and was looking a little tired but still comfortable. My negatives where that there was no parking left when I got there and I worried about leaving my car with a bike on the back out on the front lawn, as I was on the third level (and the bike was dirty) I didn't think I should take it up to the room. The other issue is that while smoking is banned in the rooms it isn't banned on the walkway outside the room and during the evening every time the bloke in the neighbouring room lit up I could smell the smoke drifting in to my room. Perhaps making those shared areas non smoking as well might help!

Unexpected rubbish and bad attitudes..”

Great location, but finding a used sanitary pad in the bed the next morning was certainly not expected. Response from Tania, the housekeeping manager was aggressive and accusatory. Suggested it was impossible that the room would have been left that way and therefore must have been put there for some ulterior motive. Tania said she would find out what was going on, but didn't manage to return. Only expectation was a clean room in return for payment. This did not happen and my monthly (bad pun, but so be it), travel to Port Maquarie will not be here. Cheers.

Queint & welcoming ”

Stay was superb. No problems of any sort. Staff was comforting and friendly. Unfortunately I didn't get the room with the balcony. Although I did request for the highest floor and there are no balconies. So I can't really complain about that. The place is opposite of the water. Superb in that sense. Needs vending machines. Needs for the carpets to be cleaned sometimes and the rooms to be dusted off more regularly. More inspections should be carried out when the guests leave and whatever they left behind i.e. mess of any sort should be reported and jotted down immediately so these issues could be discussed amongst management. Foxtel needs to be taken into consideration. That would be nice. Anyway, the place was brilliant. Really good!

Great overnight stay. ”

Excellent location. Friendly staff at reception. Room was very clean and well appointed with extras such as wine glasses, plates and cutlery along with a small kitchenette. Would definitely stay overnight again.
