Kotara Hotels near Newcastle

"Great stay, super convenient location Spacious comfortable room"

"The apartment we were originally given had a staircase we didn’t want to climb, as we are both in our eighties. Staff quickly arranged another one for us without any bother. Although a bit noisy, as on the street side, we loved the apartment. It is next door to the gym, but no one used it while we were there. Suppose it might be noisy during the week. Location was perfect. We walked everywhere. 13 minutes to a wonderful restaurant for dinner (Jana), with a lovely walk back along the river. 160 metres to a great cafe for breakfast (Autumn Rooms). There are so many great places to eat very close by. Nice friendly staff. "

"A great boutique hotel that is great for business stays but equally enjoyable for a romantic weekend "

"Location is good, pool is good, room is good size. Hard to fault "

"Room was okay, hotel is definitely dated. Only "lux" thing about it is the location/beach views. Bathroom is poorly designed, towels dingy, very little water pressure in shower, almost no amenities, very limited room service, tight covered parking, parking level foyer reeked of urine. Did not use laundry service - found a laundromat close by instead. "

"Stay away from the “budget” rooms. You wont find any pictures of them, and for good reason. They are disgusting and depressing. Imagine a particularly horrible prison cell reserved for the worst kind of prisoner, and you wont be far off. Austere, dark and cramped. From the outside they look like the toilet block, and from the inside you'd wish you were staying in one instead. We had to leave immediately upon entering and couldn't get a refund. But it was worth paying to NOT stay there."

"All clean neat tidy and comfortable "

"Clean room, staff friendly and efficient, restaurant staff need a bit more training on pouring correct drinks and serving training, food not as good as it used to be."

"Over a weekend with many "older" delegates at a Conference nearby, only one lift worked - repair people were on site on Friday, but not Saturday or Sunday. The delays were ridiculous and the staff attempted to explain the situation on basis that lift "could not" be fixed: I bet you it was fixed soon after when the rates were lower."
