For an old Motel, I found it clean and comfortable. Position close to shops and public transport, it was very handy for my stay, as I traveled there by train. I stayed in winter and the air-conditioning kept the room very warm and the staff were very pleasant on my stay.

Very convenient location would be the biggest drawcard for this motel. I happily stayed here some time back. It is now in need of some quality maintenance to make it comparable to other motels at similar price points.

The room was very clean and tidy. The room I stayed in had a queen bed and a single so would suit a small family. Or you can use the single bed as a bit of a luggage store. It had a cupboard and another space for luggage and a small table and chairs where you may sit for a meal. Microwave and fridge included and of course a basic bathroom. While the property is dated it is well maintained and has everything you would need for a short stay. What I did like about it was the proximity to the main street and it was very close to supermarkets. If you are wanting to visit the three sisters, then it is no more than two minutes drive from this motel.

The location is excellent. Check in is down the driveway, behind another hotel. Room was spacious, beds are comfortable. Only real complaint is that the bbq didn’t work. I booked this place so that we had a place to cook meals. The room only has a microwave and kettle. I would be happy to stay here again if they fix the bbq. On the plus side, it is right across from Pho Moi (loved the place, get there early)

This was a great location for our touring family. They were very helpful when we called to request a main floor room because of mobility issues. We arrived late and checked out relatively early so didn't get a chance to interact with front desk very much. We did not expect daily housekeeping so left some dirty dishes to address after our day out but when we got back, the dishes had been washed, dried and put away to our surprise! Place is older but clean and a great base for daily adventures in the area. Great location near grocery shops so we had options for microwave food when we didn't want to eat out.

Bugs in the room and on the entrance door. 2 inch cockroach in the room on shredded sheer curtains. AC showed on but no cool air. Very dated furnishings, shower, windows and security lock on door was broken. We were so uncomfortable that we would have checked out right after arrival. We did not stay for the second night we paid for and they would not refund our money. We were packed and checked out before 9am and a different hotel was kind enough to hold our luggage. Suggest a day trip to Katoomba, no overnights, it is a very run down town

I had a pleasant 4 night stay. The room was clean and had a microwave and coffee and tea. Best instant coffee I've had. Its a great location and close to the town centre of Katoomba and surrounding areas. I walked everywhere. I hired a car for 2 days and required parking for 1 night. The carpark is very tight and when I arrived back at 7pm all spots were gone and 1 car took up 2 spots which was inconsiderate. . There was street parking which I think was easier. I arrived at 11am on check in and was questioned if I knew check in was 2pm. I did. I was hoping to leave my luggage and return at 2pm. The room was ready at about 11:10 so no issues. Check in was a little unwelcoming. Other than that the property is very old but clean. Great price point too.

The property was well worn, however clean. The bed was comfortable, the shower and kitchen good. There are three hotels, Heritage, Central and Metropolis that are linked, which we didn't realise until after check in. The Central is behind the Heritage, and breakfast is at the Metropole if you want to purchase it.
Location is excellent and we would stay there again.

The motel is situated just below most of the shops in Katoomba making supermarkets and restaurants easily accessible. It is a little old and the room felt like it with a little mildew. We had a two bedroom unit which was unusual because the bathroom was not to one side but access was through one bedroom with the other bedroom as part of the main living area. It also lacked comfortable chairs/counches. The price was excellent and the staff very friendly. In terms of value for money it was good, but basic. a laundry was available but some machines were quite dirty. this is hte thrid time I've stayed in the motel and its advantages, location and price are attractive.
