A lovely motel, very stylish and modern and well planned. We had an executive room upstairs with a arge bedroom and bathroom, and a covered balcony where you could sit and enjoy a coffee from the coffee machine. There is a huge sliding glass door to the.balcony.. There was no fly screen but we weren’t bothered with any bugs. The “kitchen” facilities were nicely planned, as is the whole place. It is classy, and beautifully decorated with gorgeous abstract art, and beautiful furnishings - obviously they have used an interior decorator and it shows. Plenty of parking outside, comfortable bed, huge shower with lots of hot water. Quality bathroom products. It is a 10 minute walk to the Main Street and just a short walk across the car parks to the Old Club Bar where you can get pub type food, which was OK but next time we’ll go back into the town to the lovely Thai restaurant, assuming it’s still there. All communication with staff is via text, and uses codes for entry. It went seamlessly enough. This is a cut above the usual motel fare, you pay for it but it’s worth it.

The bathroom tap was a bit stiff - may need valve replacement. The only issue that they some people might find, is that they don’t really encourage eating in the room in as much as that there is only one inside chair, a small round table, no toaster or microwave or any crockery apart from cups and saucers.

Old Bar is not a cliche tourist destination, but it is a perfect out of the way destination for winding down and surfing. Good take away, couple of clubs/pubs, friendly people and a great long beach - I'm sure there is good fishing too! Because of this laid back vibe I was blown away by the accomodation and the friendly and helpful woman who greeted me after a long day's drive. They've had a refurb and the fixtures are amazing, the bed is sumptious- I slept in! And the adjacent club serves a mean schnitzel. Ten out of ten recommend!!

There was nothing they could've done better

It was nice and clean. We stayed 2 nights. I booked one through Booking.com and added an extra night directly with the motel. I had no housekeeping and didn't see any staff. when I came back the next day the bed wasn't made and they didn't change the towel either. even though it was Christmas season I think they should have made the bed and changed the towels. 😔

I’d love to get a clean towels for the next day

Easy to find. Was sent a text with the code for the front door and room. Room was large and had everything we needed. The towels were large ( one of my pet hates when they are too small!) and the bed very comfortable . Excellent stay, will certainly be back.

No lift so it was a struggle to get up the stairs with a heavy case and multiple bags The door code to the room took several attempts before it worked

The complimentary member card to the nearby club is genius! Location. Easy check-in, very modern, the guest amenities in bathroom were fabulous. Laundry. Parking. WiFi. Room facilities like coffee machine etc. Good air con and TV.

Entering a code every time you go in and out of your room. Strange thing in the bathroom wall that we couldn't determine what it does and it had gaffa tape over it. Hairs on the ceiling?!?.

A big surprise, never been here before and just stopped on the way through on a road trip. Was amazing to find this place, lovely, clean quiet. Great location and whilst we only had time for a look at the beach it really looked like a lovely spot. Will be back

It was all fantastic

Very nice newer hotel. Large room with nice bathroom and balcony. Easy key less entry to hotel and room so you can check in even if no one is at front desk. Close to a few little restaurants and supermarket, great stop over for trip from Gold Coast to Sydney. Guy was extremely friendly and ready to help at moments notice at reception.

Bed is super comfy but a bit softer for my liking

It is just as it looks in the pictures. And the location is really good to walk around Old Bar. Everything looks new, clean and well maintained. The room has a good a/c and a big and comfortable bed. You also have a temporary membership card, which gives you discounts at the bistro. There are plenty of parking spaces, so don't worry about that.

N/A

Everything location spotless discount offered for food check in

When I booked I specifically requested a ground floor unit and was allocated an up stairs unit however when speaking to reception they said they had no notification of it. But I will give a shout out to Deb on reception who gave me a unit on the ground floor although I had to pay $10 more.

Location was spot on, although I did have to put up with a 90 second walk to Club Old Bar for a refreshment - tiring to say the least. The rooms were very good indeed beautiful decor - perfect mattress - balcony with a two seat setting and when seated obscured from roadside view - would be quite romantic with a loved one. The ensuite was just right with a very good shower. Cleanliness beyond reproach. Coming and going was via a key pad, good system as long as you don't forget the PIN. Iron, Ironing Table and most other things tat you would generally expect, coffee etc. If you needed to launder then you can't go past their machines top range do a superb job, washing 30mns Drying 45mins, $5 wash and $5 drying $1 for powder, pretty much a home away from home. There was internet available did not use, so can/t comment on speed etc.

I was a little disappointed in there was no Microwave or Toaster. It is to be noted that in their documents it does state no cooking facilities as it is against NSW Law. This I find difficult to grasp as other Motels I have stayed have supplied at least a toaster if not a microwave and toaster but it is their rule - so be it - Bit disappointed with the price of Continental Breakfast $10 a bowl!! and choice of cereal could include Corn Flakes (not everyone eats All Brand and Sultana Brand etc). The only two Negatives I have are the Cooking but if the law is accurate then that is not their fault., and the Cereal.
