A very pleasant overnight stay. It’s very close to shops, restaurants, the beach and the blow hole.

Room was the largest we stayed in, in All of Australia with an en-suite. The best thing about this hotel was the locals and the good time we had sat outside the pub on tables. For a Tuesday night it was just brilliant! Thanks Brendan, Stu and New Jersey Christine with the dog.

Enormous room with 2 queen beds. Very comfortable. Very close to train station and waterfront. Great place to stay for a couple of nights to walk the stunning Kiama Coastal Trail

Warning: no airconditioning. The hotel stinks and the hotel is very old.
Plus side: the location is great and very convenient.

Good clean, well presented pub rooms.
It’s an old pub, creaky old floors, shared bathroom. Street parking only.
The rooms are good if you have a few and want to stay the night.
Good pub food.
A few nice cafes on the same street and only a 10min walk to the blowhole.
The staff were very good.

With the reviews of this hotel being half great, half bad, I was a little hesitant to book, and shared bathrooms are usually a nonstarter. But we took this trip last-minute, so our options were limited.
If you are worried about this hotel after some of the reviews, don't be. It's not fancy in any way, but the staff are lovely, and the rooms are clean and comfortable.
The shared bathrooms were also very clean - we bumped into the cleaning lady in there several times in one day, so they are obviously well-looked-after.
So, if you are the fence, as long as you're not looking for fancy, this is a good option. We spent the money we saved at several local restaurants instead. :-)

The rooms were very clean and the beds comfortable. A full length mirror would have been handy plus a hanging rack in both rooms. Also ironing facilities. The shared bathroom was out of order on our floor so we had to go up another flight of stairs to use the bathroom.
Staff were friendly. A quick rundown of check out procedure was given but no help offered to get our bags upstairs.

Check-in was a little prolonged as the bar staff check you in and it was a busy Friday night. It was a very clean room in a quiet secure part of the hotel with a comfortable bed. The only downside was that there were no powerpoints we could access in the room - only some in the hallway. Obviously it is quite an old building but my husband needed to charge his computer for work the next day as he had a meeting with colleagues in US. I needed to leave early for my makeup job the next morning but we had no key to get back into the building and noone was around so my husband had to stand at the main door holding it open to make sure we didn’t get locked out. Otherwise, the pub itself has a really nice atmosphere and if I wasn’t getting up early next day, would have definitely hung around for a drink and listen to the live music. I think it was very reasonable for the price we paid.
