Character-filled rambling big guesthouse has a Thai flavour and seems to have been designed with holistic healing in mind, but other than a massage chair in the rooms, I saw little evidence, and the gigantic dining space was empty. I saw few staff in the week I was there and it seemed like just a great budget hotel. Barely heard any noise from other guests and was happy with my very sunny room. A brief walk to Katoomba Street and walkable to/from the station. Would recommend.

Supplied milk was always off so I bought some from nearby ALDI and kept it in the downstairs fridge. I would also have loved a fan as it was hot. More dunny paper, please.

Loved awesome hospitality and genuine staff who have gone above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. For me cleanliness is extremely important and they have delivered on that, crispy clean sheets and clean bathrooms. They have complementary massage chairs available in most rooms, and there are two more in the common area. This is not a fancy hotel with all the luxuries but a safe, clean accommodation that feels like home. We have also learned sooo much about our health by having a consultation with Thu, she is genuine and extremely knowledgeable. It’s rare to meet such a person who’s intention is sooo pure, you can clearly see her life goal is to help people heal and she goes well beyond her job description.

Spotlessly clean, friendly helpful staff it has the feel of a quiet retreat , very comfortable beds with hot and cold modern sinks in the rooms white yet colourful linen well ventilated room's cosy older style bathrooms but the cleanliness is 5 star generous shower heads for a refreshing recharge after any activity. There is a modern guest kitchen and dining facilities for all fridges microwave toaster coffee tea etc a sort of semi hostel/hotel euro feel set up only with fringe benefits. Not your average, quaint and above average eco hidden gem not super luxurious but great for groups or solo travellers or families with competitive to budget rates far above youth hostels in many ways different but good. Decent respectable worthy of your patronage.

Not much if you accept it's not super luxurious it's honest above basic great simplicity nothing nasty give respect and you'll get a priceless smile back great value.

Not sure this place does the wellness gig anymore but it is a comfortable accommodation. Lovely staff and in a quiet location. Massage chair in most rooms, although these kind of hurt more than they help in my experience! There is a meditation room if that takes your fancy. Off street parking available.15min walk to one of the best breweries in Australia, Mountain Culture. Epic beer and killer burgers.

No a/c in room or fan! It was warm when I was there and the room was warmer than I would like but not much I could do about it. Single shared fridge in communal area provides limited space to store personal food/drink. Some selfish twat filled most of it up with their stuff.

Great accommodations, we had a great time there. I wasn’t very careful when ordering, so for me it was a pleasant surprise to see a massage chair in the room. I think it is amazing that after a long bush walk there is a nice relaxation opportunity in the motel. I was also impressed with the shower. It is located on a calm, quite street, beds were comfortable, so I sleep like a baby. I think prive/value proposition is great, highly recommended.

The bathroom and toilets are shared BUT extremely clean, so I wouldn’t consider this argument as a down side

Some people would not like sharing bathroom. I don't mind at all. Hence I haven't given a full 10 despite the arrangement being quite comfortable. It's quite a classic little hotel now spending most of its life as a health retreat. The big massage chair looked very tempting (and woukd have been irresistible to the trail runners doing their 50 and 100 km slogs over the mountain trails on the Saturday. I had to get away to the nephew's wedding, however.

Actually what I didn't like was leaving fairly early as we had to rush home to a visitor.

Hotel is absolutely lovely and has a character! Bed was extremely comfortable, I had very effective massage chair in my room which was very useful after a long day of hiking. Shower was amazing and hotel was super quiet. I appreciate that I was allowed to leave my luggage in the hotel after my check-out so I could do some hiking before my bus. Hotel also has kitchen free to use and free filtered water for drinking. Kettle and sink in the room are very handy aswell. I could not be more happy about my stay!

Nice and quiet location, staff were friendly and supportive. I like the option to be able to make a cup of tea or coffee. The massage chair in the room was great. Facilities have a sauna, which can be booked and paid for separately.

Room vanity needs proper clean up. The shower box was great but is falling apart. No matter how one tries, water still goes on the floor, which can be slippery stepping out of the shower box. The heater in the room is noisy and too small to heat the room.

Extended stay over Xmas/NY - superb value, location is excellent (town 5 mins one way, Blue Mountains 5 mins the other), hosts are very friendly and helpful. Massage chair superb.

Could do with extra fridge space (1 fridge for around 30 rooms) - when it became busy after Xmas you had one or two helpful people shove a huge shopping bag in there and boom! there went the fridge space...(even to the point where the door wouldn't shut)

The staff where very warm and friendly. Trigger warning however this place is part hotel part Cancer Recovery Center which I was not at all expecting. Having lost a family member to cancer this made me very upset and I feel like I should have been alerted to this before booking. The staff were very understanding and gave me a refund straight away.

This facility is put hotel part Cancer Recovery Centre wich can be triggering to people who have recently lost a loved one to Cancer. I was not expecting this when I was booking somewhere to stay for my relaxing holiday. I think this should have been made very clear in the hotel description.
