Wollongong is a lovely old town. The room was dated, which I also love! I'm a child of the 1970s. The staff are so very polite, Kiera was more than helpful. We had booked into a room upstairs but when I asked about that at reception, she immediately knew I would prefer to be on the ground level, and beating me to it, she said 'Would you prefer to be downstairs". That's brilliant! I think she read my mind! Myself and the GF LOVED the place, it was everything we imagined and more.

Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    Across the road from the harbour, fantastic location. Spotlessly clean. Cafe on ground level of building overlooking harbour had tasty breakfast options & good coffee. Shower always ran hot with good power. Lift always worked. Secure at night with one main reception door in/out. Big bright lights in car park right through the night so car is safe.

    Conveniently placed to venues, the room was more than ample and furnished well. I haven't slept as well in other motels as I did during my stay and wished I could take the bed home with me.
