It was all we needed and it included Breakfast
Rosalie, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Very warm welcome from the hotel staff, however I guess it is cold Hotel Blue as I turned a little blue from the cold. It was freezing cold in the public areas with not heating available and we were told that there was a problem with the chimney so the log fires could not be used. As the main reason we choice the Hotel was because of the welcoming log fire, we will not be staying there again during winter.

8/10 Good

Very nice historic hotel. Clean and comfy bed

Nice hotel. Continental breakfast is helpful. Location is great
Mei Wah, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice historical building. Common areas, like the living area and the restaurant look very nice and feel cozy. Bedrooms are large but are in need of an uplift, or at least a paint job. Beds are comfy, TV works well, bathroom had a good size, with good water temp and pressure. Aircon did work well as too. Location is perfect, halfway between Echo point and the Katoomba city centre, so you can walk to both areas. Lots of parking available at (and around) the property. Good breakfast - various types of bread, coffee, cereals, fruits, etc. Staff were super friendly. Wi-fi did work, but would struggle a bit when there were many devices connected. Overall I would stay there again, good price for what it offers.
Alexandre, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Comfortable stay with some old world charm. Rooms were clean and bed was nice. Good continental breakfast with fresh fruit, non dairy milks and gluten free options. Would stay again.

I had booked a 2 rooms but got an upgrade to stay at Annie's cottage as we were 2 families. The cottage was beautifully maintained. The house was clean and comfortable with parking at the back. Very close to Katoomba station and town centre. We loved our stay there.
Kavita, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Room was clean, nice decor in room and common areas. There was a restaurant but it was only open for continental breakfast. Location was good as it was walking distance to Echo Point and to downtown Katoomba.
Richard, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed in the big house attached to the hotel, plenty of space, nice and quiet.
Daniel, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Free breakfast was cereals and toast. It was nice that it was very quiet and homey, despite the walls being as thin as paper. Best part was the location - very accessible to a lot of dining areas and the sites.
Maria Antonia Rosanna, 2-night trip

We loved the location with good parking and easy access to town and National Park. The old hotel is interesting and the owners have some their best to keep it up to date.
