I had a lovely welcome at reception and the room was clean and comfy. The bathroom was great - fantastic shower! That said, there was a bad smell in the room that never went away (like rotten eggs) and the soundproofing wasn't sufficient to block the noise of the trucks going past until late at night and from early in the morning. I had very little sleep, unfortunately. It was a shame because otherwise the room was very comfortable.

We had a lovely stay, staff were friendly and accommodating. The beds were very clean and comfortable, and so was the room. The pool was very refreshing after such a long drive. We had to leave very early in the morning, as we had to get to Adelaide. We’re looking forward to staying again on the 19th January, and this time we won’t be leaving early. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Nice accommodation in Hay.

We were in room 9 with parking right at the door. We have stayed at the motel a couple of times now and always have found it enjoyable. It's positioned in the middle of town and has a hotel next door that has great meals. The bed was comfortable and all things were in working order. It's also quiet. We would recommend the Nicholas Royal Motel to anyone travelling to Hay.
